I wanted to get the pregame thread up, since most of us Europeans will be well asleep when the game starts. Hopefully that’s ok.
So what do we expect? How many minutes do you think Lively will get, what record will Luka break this time?
Kennard, Adams, Morant, and Clark are out, with Dillon Brooks gone obviously. This is a different and worse team than last year with worse depth. No reason we can’t beat Bane, JJJ, and Smart. But the team needs to stay focused
Although Memphis is bad, they do have some talent and they will be hungry for a win.
Put them to 0-4 no mercy, end their season.
I would love for us to get a win here but I wouldn’t at all be surprised if Memphis comes out in desperation mode and hands us an L. They are really trying to avoid going down 0-4 so in a weird way this will be somewhat of a test for us. Can we withstand a desperate team throwing everything at us?
If we come out and win convincingly then that adds to my optimism about this team.
