This! I hope Ime gives the starters a quarter and a half of playtime just to keep their rhythm and then give Reed, Cam, Aaron, Jock, Jeff, and Tate the rest of the game to also keep them in game shape and be ready to step up in case they are needed. This is just the start of good things to come in the future if the main guys remain healthy and work more on their respective weaknesses in the offseason.
I think their injuries are real. FVV still hasn't fully healed, Sengun was beat up during the Warriors game, especially when he fell on his back after a rebound and started to massage his lower back. Jabari played with a slightly sore ankle. Silver cannot go after the Rockets and accuse them of not playing their stars.
Rest Fred until the playoffs to get his ankle healthier. Start Reed. Play the normal rotation guys half of their normal minutes.
Alpi, Jalen and Amen have already played at a high level vs OKC and GSW. It's time to reduce their minutes.
The Lakers should be the most feared opponent in the playoffs. Not because they are that good but because every team will be playing against the officials too. Every little contact, especially with Lebron and Luka would be a foul. Any complaint would be given a technical unless it is Dray. The league is cheating the paying fans of the game.
you don't have to rest EVERYONE. just inform the team NO homerun or highlight reel plays. not worth the risk.
I just saw an update on him. His face is busted up, and he has a broken wrist. Pushes to the back to in air player should be outlawed. How many players have break there wrists or snap there legs to make this stop.
Listening to the NBA postgame show in TNT and they still haven't got it through their thick skulls that the Rockets have clenched the #2 seed. Still talking about the Lakers catching us even after this most recent loss. Shows how little attention they pay to the Rockets to not have even understood that there was a one game margin heading into tonight and we clenched a top 2 seed.
They put this graphic on the screen....Way after the Lakers game had already ended....They are annoying...
Clinching HCA over 88% of all teams is a huge safety net and prevents those late game blunders, at least on paper. Right now only the Celtics and a bit the Cavs can say they have an advantage. Thunder are two faced right now but we'll see if they have another gear to go to. Alpe Sengün, FVV, DB, JSJ and Green give them monumental problems Lakers, GSW and Clippers are the dark horses lol and they get the calls.
Goal from now til the start of playoffs: 1. Practice (shoot a ton of free throws) 2. Practice point blank lay ups (Sengun and Eason)
Truly amazing! I had no doubt that we would step up to a play-in position or even to playoffs from 6/5 place, as I believed in our young core. But I wouldn’t guess #2 place! And to think that we still have our shooting struggles.. Now let’s see more minutes from Reed and Cam! I don’t think we should seat down anyone, but we need to limit our starters by max. 25 minutes, no more. Let Reed, Cam, Tate, Aaron, Jock and Unc some well deserved minutes.
Cool, now I need the Nuggets to win out and for us to lose to them so they can secure that 3rd spot. If not them then the Clippers or Warriors. Do not want the Lakers with how the refs officiate them.
I think they need to lower the mins definitely but you can not sit them just yet, unless it's the Denver game. They still need to keep their timing
