Cs rarely ever show up for matinee games.
....embarrassing and a waste of everyone’s time.  Including the opposite team’s time.

I say yes!  Just give us the loss. 🤔
I am overreacting I know....it is so frustrating.

I for one, think we should be resting guys for the play in today and tomorrow.  We gain nothing and could lose a lot by playing them.

I'd love to see the NBA just eliminate matinee games and Sunday games in general from their schedule.  Those games are almost always really bad.

No.

They should learn how to prepare & perform better in matinee games.

That would suck for parents looking to bring their young children for a game.

Also what do you consider a matinee game.

This year they are 0-4 at 1 pm (with the Knicks tomorrow).  Will be 1-1 at 2 pm (after they finish off Minny today). 2-0 at 3 pm.  1-1 at 3:30 pm.  So very bad at 1 pm, but pretty darn good in the rest of the afternoon.
