Cavs resting Mitchell tonight. Seems a little odd considering no B2B involved (before or after tonight) but whatever. Adjust FD or DK lineups accordingly
glad they rested him- but Atkinson has done really well managing his minutes.

last year he was pushed a ton- some of it was needed because of injuries- but having a healthy Mitchell at the end is a huge thing. He could not even dunk at the end of the season last year since he had a pretty fucked up knee.

at Boston is going to be very very tough.

If they can get by Boston though- next 4 are New Orleans, Toronto, Atlanta, Atlanta. Fairly do-able.

if they can get past Boston then 20-0 is on the table.........after those 4 games after Boston -- then they get Boston again at home.

All considering- I think its likely it stops Tuesday and that would not be the worst thing. Starts carrying some pressure at some point. I would like to see them beat Boston and have a chance to get to 20-0 though.

Near the beginning of the season I thought that the Cavs goal should be the 2 seed and making it to the ECF.

If they lose before the ECF to a fully healthy and rolling Sixers team with Embiid, Maxey and George---- or the Knicks start rolling with Towns, Bridges, Brunson, OG- it'll be a bummer but it wouldn't be a huge shock.

But the goal should be 2 seed and ECF-- and then if its Boston then you gotta just play it out and see how it goes. Keep taking steps forward.

First bad loss of the year for the Thunder, everyone has them.

Depth will be tested. Hope wade and okoro are okay. Merrill and Strus ankle injuries. First time depth will be tested quite a bit if any of those injuries are semi-serious
