    Take that back. He’s out tonight. Hopefully just for rest, since it’s a loss anyhow.

    Can we just hand them the win, no need to risk any other injuries.

    i'd prefer ham send out some funky lineups and junk up the game. see if you can't get them in the muck and thinking about losing to a team missing its three best players.

    Take the opportunity to play Max huge minutes with big responsibility. Smart to not play Austin tonight as much as I hate him not playing...lol.

    Great time to experiment with lineups. It's almost a guaranteed loss.

    Oh for sure, I'm feigning despair. Love to see Bryant, Walker, Reaves, Russ, Schroder, Christie, Brown and Jones all turn on the burners and not put the load squarely on LBJ. And pray Devin has an off-night shooting.

    Booker is a good cover for Reaves if he can keep out of foul trouble. Nice match. Exact same height in shoes, 6'6"

    Without AD, need Reaves frankly to win games.
    Offensively he's the only guy you can trust to be able to multiple things at the end of games other than Lebron (create, shoot, play off ball)
