    I had to use google just to find the page with the schedule on nba.com; I swear the nba deliberately makes it impossible to find from their main page. Here's the link:

    http://leaguepasssupport.nba.com/li...r-NBA-LEAGUE-PASS-during-the-2015-2016-season

    They seem to offer the free preview at roughly the same times every season, so I'm assuming it'll be similar for next season.

    A loss would give us an 8-4 tiebreaker lead over their 6-6 division record. So we might have the tie breaker regardless of tonights game. A win gets us closer to the 5th seed.

    I never understood the "matchup" philosophy. Why not play your best guys? If our small ball was able to go toe to toe with the Warriors, and they are one of the best teams in the league, why don't we do the same thing vs every time? Why do we need to "match their bigs"?

    I hope not, It was so enjoyable to sit through a match without seeing his sloppy plays

    Assuming you mean we went small ball to beat GS (ie, to "match" GS), then wouldn't that logic mean we should go bigger to "match" Utah?

    No, it's logical to put your best unit on the floor. Golden State doesn't not play small ball just because another team puts bigs on the floor.

    Oh man. I was worried about a hangover game, but it looks like Terry did his job well in making sure we were locked in to start this game.
