But man, Gwill needs to make a 3 already

0-11 now?

Come on Rhino

Doesn’t have to be threes. Just a nice mid range shot would be nice. Needs someone to take him under their wing.

It doesn’t have to be threes, but my guess is the coaching staff would like it to be threes and accordingly tells him to shoot it if he’s open.

Gonna be interesting, big range in recovery time depending on how severe smarts ankle sprain is. A grade 1 sprain will normally be about 2 weeks, thats what Myles Turner suffered this year. Grade two and three sprains can be significantly  worse depending on the extending of ligament damage. Fox suffered a grade three and is being "re-evaluated" in 3-4 weeks. But who knows.

Great game . Ha ha..GW scores 4 points but is +18.

[Tr1boy]

Shift Brown and Tatum back to SG/SF and start Semi/Grant as a PF?

My guess is Javonte Green.  Wannabe also

Gwill should get more mins

GW is actually 0-16 from 3.

[footey]

Replay made it looked like a tweak. I’m hoping he returns for Clippers game.

Marcus Smart is at his locker, ankle isn’t wrapped, and he’s moving it around and laughing while he talks to people. So concern level certainly looks as low as it can be.

This makes the most sense. Brown will cover the best scorer, Tatum the SG when he has to and Semi gets to cover whoever is left over.

Ya I figure you can't replace both Smarts offense and defense, so if most of your offensive firepower is in the starting unit then use Semi to boost the defense and hide him on offense in that unit. That would be quite the turn around from nearly out of the rotation like a week ago.

But it appears as if he might be fine anyway, so disaster averted?

It would be smart to have him rest a few more days, so starting Walker/Brown/Tatum/Grant or Semi/Theis against the Clippers would be the way to go imo.
