    Pretty much agree with Pinwheel's lineup. Start Zach, we need Kanter and Seth scoring in the second unit.

    Would prob have Mo instead of Jake for low post offense though.

    This. I'm just so dead inside. Seriously. Fuck it all. To hell with the playoffs, I don't even give a shit. My outlook at this moment is for our future, nothing more. And certainly not the goddamn playoffs.

    Start whomever. Honestly, if we tank and develop, I really wouldn't mind that. I don't see us winning many more games after this anyways.

    Who knows, maybe Nurk just sprained his tibula and will be fine.

    Dame will be absolutely swarmed in the playoffs. It may be better to play more Kanter with him, as Kanter can score around the rim and Dame has been a much better passer recently

    Thats why you play Simons, Trent, Skal, Collins and sit Dame and CJ no use getting one of them seriously injured this year. Im not even saying quit, I think making those go out and play meaningful minutes would do all of them so good.

    That is fucking retarded. Those guys minus Collins should develop in summer league. Dame is a competitor, this is borderline offensive to suggest he would be ok with being shut down when we clinched a berth.

    The goal should still be to get out of the first round.

    Yeah lets go have him play an extremely physical playoff series he has no chance of winning so he can get grinded down because he doesnt have any one ready to help win a playoff series. Just hope he doesnt get hurt too.

    Paul George officially returns to court 8 months after leg injury

    It's now official. Paul George has returned to the court just over eight months after suffering a horrific compound fracture in his left leg during a Team USA scrimmage. The long-awaited return happened later than some expected in March, but earlier than many expected when it first happened.

    George first checked into the game with 5:34 remaining in the first quarter. The above was how he was received. He then hit his first shot a couple minutes later.

    Just sick to my stomach. I was really feeling it. Chuck and Kenny were even on board. There was real hope that this team might somehow emerge as a Cinderella team and win it all.....and puff! It’s gone. Of course we can cheer on the boys with hopes we become a spoiler - but without Nurk we are not playing in the Finals :(

    Sad night man

    This. I was looking forward to a bitching fap after this game and going to sleep with a smile.

    Now I'll be lucky if I can get it up for the rest of the goddamn year. And I have to do laundry at the laundry mat at 9 in the goddamn morning tomorrow.

    Fuck this night. Seriously.

    Heck Im still going to a game later and Id be just as excited to watch the young guys.
    Their chances for a championship just extinguished for the year, realizing that and saying it isnt worth our franchises future to play out a lost season seems reasonable.

    You shut Dame down, he will leave on his own. He isn't LeBron at the end of his career. He's first/second team all NBA.
