Why is KAT playing? Doesn't he know on this road trip that teams are supposed to be without their top player/players?
 
We've got a real chance at this one. I'm expecting a big night from Dame, CJ to score a little more and Hassan to play well against KAT (at least in the post). On a side note: What's up with that poll question? Are you trying to depress us??? We have no good perimeter defenders besides probably Hood, who I voted for and who is out for the season.
 
We need to win this game since we are not beating the Bucks
 
This poll is the worst I've seen since I read polls on the 2016 presidential election.

One game at the time. Bucks come to play us in a second night of a back2back. ''it could be a factor - stotts''. Lets go! Finish this trip strong and go get those 2 at home.
 
Kind of wondering about Skal???
His injury was the 27th and his MRI was the 28th. Been 10-11 days and we still don't have much word?

And a couple hours later we have our answer. At least another month.
 
@Darkwebs
Your poll questions this year are brutal...
Who's the best perimeter defender. Come on...

yeah, I was thinking the same thing....no matter who you vote for, even if you're right, t's a case of who suck less

I voted Little just because he's played so little (ha!) there's still some hope
 
according to a lot of people here, Whiteside is lazy, has hollow stats, and doesn't contribute to wins, so him sick shouldn't make a difference
