    Chandler hyperextended his knee against us and missed the Brooklyn game. He may not play against us. Also, with their recent swoon, they may take their own sweet time in getting Lawson back and start playing for ping-pong balls.

    Denver has the same problem we do. It's just not viewed as a quality destination for young black players. Melo forcing his way out killed the reputation of this team. They're only going to build a roster through the draft.

    Meyers Leonard (left ankle sprain) says he's getting close to returning, though his status for tomorrow's game vs. Nuggets is still TBD

    Hold him out until the ATL game, and only play him in that one so he can shake off some rust before the DAL game. He could be good and rested for the upcoming road trip.

    I say suit him up for the Denver game, but only use him if you need him.

    We can't afford to lose any winnable games with the standings the way they are.

    We also can't afford to go into the Playoffs without at least two guys not named Mo being ready to contribute off the bench. IMO seeding means nothing if we don't season our bench.
    But I understand where you're coming from.

    I can see both arguments. Playing LMA if he's fully healthy helps not only the team win, but also get back into rhythm during the home stand. On the other hand, getting even more rest, if he's not 100%, is ideal, and the ATL game may be enough to get back in the flow prior to the road trip. I err on the side of winning, though, and in the NBA, weird things happen, even at home against bad teams.

    When he is 100% he plays seems like a good course of action.

    Stotts needs to think outside of the box.

    JOEL FREELAND – Right knee sprain. OUT.
    MEYERS LEONARD – Left ankle sprain. OUT.

    I'm envisioning a shared brace, sort of a three-legged race affair.

    Hey guys, sorry I won't be posting tonight. I will be at the MODA Center in the MODA Luxury Suite at center court. There will be a chef in suite preparing dinner... So I'll be here in spirit.
