    Second night of a b2b so I'm prepared for disappointment

    On the plus side even if we do lose, at least we're potentially helping out our Phoenix pick.

    Were you willing to lose that game, so we could rest the starters? The bench absolutely sucked, especially Holiday. I don't particularly like Ime's rotations and lack of offensive chops, but the lack of a viable bench is on Stone.

    He played the wrong guys....you can't play Tate, ever.

    Play Cam, Play McVeigh, Play Jeenathan - they can hold the fort for 10 minutes to give the starters rest.

    Tate should never grace an NBA court on this team.

    McVeigh hasn't played all year. There must be a lockerroom problem with Cam or he would be playing. We would've lost the game if he would have gone further into the bench. Just own your terrible take.

    Yep, I think 1 more this season. Just ready to get done with the 4 back to backs in a row. This does not help Ime prepare his playoff lineups but it is what it is. I bet Cam plays tonight.

    Ime should use the rotation wisely, considering it’s 2nd night of back to back. The starters should get enough rest during the first 3 quarters, or else they won’t perform at the 4th. Even if it means that he’ll have to give more minutes to guys like Cam and Reed.

    You don't know that, they might have pulled away, Ime puts far too much emphasis on defense - there are plenty of guys that win with great offense, hell Curry, Durant, Bird, Magic, Jokic - we need some offense to balance our team.

    Fred only wants to return if it’s vs the denvers.

    Are we stashing a guy like those guys on the bench? If so, they should probably start playing 38 mpg
