Probably have to play Markkanen. Taking a week for "reconditioning" would be a bit excessive unless the illness is ebola.

It was interesting how enviously Silver talked about relegation and it solving his biggest problems in the "NBA Europe" press conference. He said that the worst part of his job is fining teams for tanking violations.

Lamelo is out for the season. This will have to be a splendid tank to happen. The good news is this is the last **** team we play all season. I'm thinking more Kessler threes as well as hand Cody the ball and tell him to make things happen.

Why??

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Just play Lauri limited minutes as part of his "conditioning"

 

[Tanktastic]

Markkanen out with a knee, Kessler out with re-conditioning and Sexton out with "his *** hurts"

Sexton listed as questionable according to NBA.com

 

[Douchebag K]

Doesn’t really matter at this stage. We’re gonna lose every other game

 

[homeytennis]

Kessler, Collins, Clarkson and Lauri all out and Sexton has a bone bruise on his knee. Sounds like big minutes for Oscar and Flip.

 

[Jaanipoeg]

Hornets just ducked a win against the Pelicans after being up 10+ in the second half. They are in Clubber Lang boxing form and I think we're in early movie Rocky form.

Don't like our odds.

That's why we pay Hardy the big bucks to sabotage any chance of winning. 48 minutes and 50 shots for Cody.

Sexton has a bone bruise on his knee.

On his ***, not his knee.

 

[kabenac]

Adam Silver is gonna fine The Jazz 1 billion dollars.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Cody is questionable. For the love of the tank, make him play.

 

[homeytennis]

Cody is questionable. For the love of the tank, make him play.

Gawd yes and see that he chucks at least 50 shots.

 

[KqWIN]

Oscar going to turn in a 20 and 30 performance tonight. The amount of rebounds available will be unprecedented.

 

[Rubashov]

This could be a real reverse knife fight, where everybody is trying to self harm. Could legitimately be the worst NBA game this season.

 

[KqWIN]

Cody must play tonight, this franchise needs him now more than ever.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Cody is questionable. For the love of the tank, make him play.

This is his flu game. I can think of no greater way to tank than a half strength Cody.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Oscar going to turn in a 20 and 30 performance tonight. The amount of rebounds available will be unprecedented.

Oscar and Diabate gonna be the first players to each have 30 rebounds in the same game. We gotta keep Oscar out of there... no try-hards tonight.
