weird that Hart would sit the first game back, first of back to backs and not the 2nd.

Play against Bulls or Cavs an easy decision, if that’s the case

hate foul baiting thing... I just think he cant be guarded. SGA is similar... they attack constantly. Unlike Harden who actually does foul bait by trying to draw them on plays everyone knows he's not scoring on. Brunson is relentless.

We are pretty much set at 3rd (2.5 behind Boston, 8 behind Cleveland and 5.5 ahead of Indiana) so no need to chase wins. Let Josh Hart sit if he needs to. The objective is to be as healthy for the playoffs as possible. 2nd, 3rd, 4th, who cares.

Better to be 2nd and maybe let Boston and Clev play in round two if all the top seeds win as expected. Boston will not relent. History has shown luck is needed and sometimes the path of teams matter greatly. Injuries to potential opponents can be opportune. Sometimes teams that make the play-in because of a late season trade or return to health can really change things. Philly Getting Embiid back last year and taking us to 6 games was not an easy opening. Lady Luck in the next round smiled on Nembhard with that 31 foot banker at the shot clock buzzer and if not maybe we go up 3-0? In the end we broke down and Indy was healthier.

Or, if you want to be the man you got to play the man and give a beat down to both Boston and Cleveland.
Im not so confident that we beat Clev based on what occurred two years ago, Mobley is much improved and that Garland-Donovan duo is smoother.

Prefer Cavs and Celts bloody them selves over a 7 game series and we sweep Indy (a boy can dream) and. hit Boston well rested. Let Mitch posterize KP and knock him out while an exhausted Tatum and Brown chuck away. Enter the finals vs. OKC.

Cavs and Boston only play in round 2 if they finish 1,4 or 2,3. We're too far behind to get the 1 and they are too far ahead for one of them to fall to 4.

Bulls have beaten us twice this year averaging over 131 pts per game! We have not been able to stop them all year long. No LaVine this time around, but we have trouble with Giddey, White, Vucevic. Will be an interesting game.

Yes super annoying that we let this guys hang around and then give us fits. Always got the sense the aforementioned guys played extra well against us as if they were auditioning for a spot on the Knicks.

I am hoping that we are mentally dialed in for the rest of the season.
