Dillon Brooks is QUESTIONABLE and Isaiah Livers is OUT among the usual.

What, no Brooks? Who will score and stop the big bad wolves. Difficult to beat the top teams when Booker is out, but I hope they give effort. It would help if either Royce or Allen would come off the bench. Start CG, Royce/Allen, Dunn, Fleming, Willams, or perhaps Goody and sub in Fleming if they pick on our little guys. Need some size and speed to have a chance. We're too slow with both Allen and Royce on the floor. Regardless, this is a L.

If Fleming gets minutes please don't make him just stand in the corner to shoot threes. He needs to be more active and see the ball go in. Make him do some slashing or try to take his man 1-on-1.

this game may be too tough a task - missing our best defensive player our best offensive player on the road against a team we just embarrassed in the cup

not to mention we have the cup game in 2 days and book really wants to be back for that

ott plays to win every game but if it's apparent early that that's not happening i hope he manages williams' minutes - maybe some maluach is in order tonight

Maybe we pull some GPop magic where we start and play our bench guys (we almost have to anyway).

I'm just hoping we can stay competitive throughout. It will be a good chance to hone our 2nd team offense. And just play consistently good defense throughout. Give the young guys a good burn.

Maybe?

If Brooks, Booker, and Green are all out we don't have a chance in hell. It was a stretch with Brooks.

Right. We need to work on that. If the threes aren't falling, get to the rim or shoot some shorter jumpers. Stop the other team from scoring. We didn't do those things last game.

Good to see Livers and Booker getting up shots.

Let's see Fleming go for like 20 points tonight. It's in him I do believe, but probably somewhere further down the road.

Ultimate trap game for the wolves, home game for them, 5 wins in a row, depleted suns roster...but wait they have some dogs in Ant and Randle.
