Lot of vacancies......Cassell should get a job.

 

[trojanfan12]

He has Covid.

Ouch. Depending on how bad...he might be done for the playoffs.

Donnie Nelson out as Mavs GM.

 

[tlance]

Yeah, I can see that. But you still have to try it at least for a couple of possessions to see if he can disrupt KD's flow a little. Or a hard double team off of The Beard to force the ball out of KD's hands.

Have to do something different.

Anything.

Anything.

That's the the hardest part to understand, imo. You have to try something, even if it's the wrong thing. Then, at least you tried to switch it up and give a different look.

Exactly.

I don’t recall seeing Portis out there at all. He could have done a much better job on that pick and pop play.

I have been wondering why Portis hasn't been playing.....

is Chris Paul a total fucking idiot- or just your average run of the mill idiot?

couldnt he have just gotten the vaccine and not had to worry about it?

Reports tonight confirmed that he was vaccinated. He isn't the first or last person to test positive after being vaccinated. It happened to a player on the Warriors and several on the Yanks as well so no he isn't some idiot as you assumed he was.

The seas seem to be parting for the Clips, ugh.

Yeah, from what has been reported, he's been vaccinated.

Would they rather face Atlanta or Philly? Their path may be getting easier as well.

If Kawhi is out for long the Clippers aren't coming out of the West

They need 1 of 2 in this series, then could get the Suns without CP3.

I'm assuming the Sun's have CP back by then but hell every team is missing someone major except Atlanta

How long does it take to clear Covid protocol, if he truly has it? 10 days or 2 weeks? The series could start as soon as Sunday.
