But I’m also sensing that Monty is pushing the starters minutes up so that they’re ready to play the heavy minutes in the playoffs.

No way we can lose in front of that kid!

Challenge accepted.

By whom?

That's classified.

Is this Shaq?

[Superbone]

I saw that too

When I saw that, I thought it was more along the lines of, "Oh man, I just screwed up at a critical point of the game."

I didn't see it and I wish I had never heard anything from you guys. I hope everything is fine.

If that's what he's doing, it doesn't make much sense to me. These guys are veterans. They have been to the Finals together already. They need to be healthy more than anything. Playing them too many minutes just tires them out and increases their chance of injury. I was annoyed the other night against the Bucks, there were about 2 minutes left and we were down by 12-13 points and Coach Monty left all the starters in until the bitter end. Call a timeout, get those guys off the floor, even if it's just for a minute or two. That stuff adds up.

They showed the replay. He was kicked in that special place. He should be fine.

Didn't look like he was in Ayton of pain tbh.

^ I see you.

Yeah I mentioned that I would be looking to see if the guys come out to take frustrations from the 3-game losing streak out on Magic but again.....

Like everyone here seems to be noticing, our energy just seems off
Don't know if it's the maaan when is KD back ?!? But I had said it's for us as fans to think like that not pros
Book looks like it only takes one whistle or non call for him to be like This BS again tonight ?!?! and he seems to mentally check out a lil
Either way, glad to see Payne again making plays and decent from Jock again

[bajanguy008]

Yeah we pulled it off for the kid
Have no idea what Leezus does but he really hooked them up

[TOO]

^ I see you.
