    We are in Denver all weekend. I am wondering who thinks this can have a negative effect having the night off on a Saturday night?
    I’m on the fence but with so many young guys I see the potential for a party night. Hoping the vets steer the team clear of that.
    Thoughts?

    Coach Billups probably rented a gym to drill down on some new ideas. No rest, no chillin', get back to work.

    This will be the 12th Saturday night off this season. It has had no impact on this team so far, why now?

    As long as they don't emulate a typical Morant trip to Denver, I'm sure they'll be okay.

    The team travels on the road in the morning and are off nights. This will be the 6th Saturday night off this season while on the road. Philly/LA/Milwaukee/NYC/LA/Denver

    Team is 18-31 this season.

    Obviously, Saturday nights off have ruined this season.

    We will lose tonight and it will have NOTHING to do with us being off here in Denver last night.

    Not sure there’s a person on here who doesn't want that. Tough to judge “effort and hustle” when you are so completely outmatched talent wise.

    Players aren't machines. They NEED to have time off to let loose and decompress. I hope they did party last night.
