    Spurs will not go out to tank the game. There in there position with there record due a lot of youth on that team but they go out and they played hard. Been watching them all season so I know there going to bring it. Zach Collins you going see a different player especially on the offense end where he more aggressive trying to score that one improvement I seen him through this year. Spurs actually got some good young players that plays for them. Blazers lately been given Sharpe his shot glade to see and they also got some unknown players from the G-league that also goes out and play hard due to this is audition for either the blazers or some other team for next year.

    Most importantly they are playing in Austin for new fans. They will bring it.

    Out of pure curiousity if a team doesn't have enough players to meet the minimum requirements would that count as a forfeit? Now THAT is a level of tanking that would cause the league to really lose their shit.

    I heard on the radio shaedon has inflamed knee. This is what im worried about. He needs to stop dunking and preserve his knees

    I doubt that he's really injured, if the Blazers weren't tanking, he would be playing. He's just too good for the tank

    I wouldn't doubt he has an inflamed knee but at least 9 of every 10 players in the NBA players have one at some point in the Season. Hardly because he is dunking.

    The idea of watching this game makes my skin crawl but I'll probably end up doing it to watch Skylar Mays and Zach Collins.

    Sometimes I do worry about SS breaking a wrist on some of his powerful dunks when he winds up. But damn they are fun to watch. For the majority of his dunks though I do prefer when he glides in with an "easy" throw down.

    In 2 days when the Blazers play a playoff Clippers team Sharpes knee will have made a miraculous 100% recovery.

    You almost have to bench Eubanks too. He likes sticking it to his former team.

    Starting Butler at C increases the chances of losing
