Lets see if the team shows any ounce of pride on the defensive end today.
If Murray plays we win because he has heart. He's questionable.

We need to start resting Jokic from today. He's playing injured and the last thing we need, is missing him 100% in the playoffs. These are all meaningless games for us. 3 or 4 seed doesn't matter. Murray shouldn't play under any circumstances. Let's see if bench can gain any confidence in the remaining games

Murray is "very, very doubtful" according to Malone. Jokic is playing, Zeke is not.

Murray shouldn't play under any circumstances. Let's see if bench can gain any confidence in the remaining games I could see Jokic resting vs San Antonio. He'll be playing against the Clippers for sure though. Just because Malone says the 1 seed isn't the top priority doesn't mean the players feel like that. I'm sure they all realize health is the #1 but I'm pretty sure they do want the 1 seed. Remember that a 3 seed means likely 2 series starting on the road if they make the WCF. It will not be easy winning as a 3 seed. |

Malone says Murray and Zeke are progressing and hopefully one or both can play against San Antonio.
Also says that he was surprised Jokic even played with the wrist feeling the way it was against Minnesota.

Also says that he was surprised Jokic even played with the wrist feeling the way it was against Minnesota. I wonder if Jokic has like a partially torn ligament in his wrist and just doesn't get the surgery in the offseason for some reason. Feel like he's had an issue with it for 3 straight years now. |

Jokic took the wrist tape off. We back.

Just absolutely zero rhythm with no PG. Zero. I really think it's a mistake to not start Gillespie. He at least is a capable PnR handler. There's just no rhythm.

CG, Huff, Pickett, Tyson, Strawther all active. Key sitting, presumably because of the 50 game limitation.

Reggie looked better in the PnR earlier this year with both Jokic and Jordan. I wonder if his toe injury ever healed or if he just gassed out as the year went along. |

It’s kind of hopeless right now, like the Shaw era.

Lets make sure to limit MPJs touches after this 1Q.

Good defensive possession for Reggie there.
EDIT:
and he follows it up with an inexplicable foul

If we shoot threes like this all game long, maybe we have a chance.

Joker can’t shoot. His touch is gone. Bad wrist.
