Stan Van Gundy says Lonzo Ball and Steven Adams WILL play tonight against the Rockets, but Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram remain OUT. Kira Lewis Jr. is also unavailable tonight.


quote:

Lonzo Ball will go back in the starting lineup, per Van Gundy.

He added that Ball will have to play a lot tonight bc only three guards are available with Kira out.

We need to lose this one if we want a good pick!

Chance to make the playoffs the proper way (not this play in 10th seed bollocks) = zero

Chance to pick up a superb rookie that could be our 3rd piece... small... better start losing properly!

Not until tomorrow...

Isaiah Thomas will miss the New Orleans Pelicans game against the Houston Rockets on Sunday due to the league's health and safety protocols.

Thomas, who signed with the Pelicans last week, will join the team on Monday.

I believe in Tank General Stan to lead the young soldiers to tanking victory



Whoops, forgot the “good luck” tanking meme

You're right, we do need to lose this game. Which means we'll probably frick around and win.

I like how the org said Zion avoided serious injury and might not miss any games and now he’s missing his 3rd easy win game (if zion plays 25 plus mins) in a row. The vague injury stuff this org puts out has got to stop. At this point, I’m slightly worried about the shape Zion will come back in as we’ve seen what can happen when he gets a week or two off from playing basketball.

No for real WTF is going on!??!

This time a week ago we were beating the Celtics and looking like a solid bet for the play in tourney.

A week later it looks like we're doing random drawings for the starting lineup.

Jaxson's staring PF vs a team that starts Christian Wood and 4 guards?

The entire roster is now picking up mysterious "injuries." How/why did we just take this total 180 turn towards tanking?

Maybe we should just boycott the team until we get what we want. Stan loves boycotts, he'd probably listen

I’m actually interested to see this lineup. Jaxson will get to run around and guard smaller players and maybe they will let him shoot some jumpers or run the Point Zion role. Probably won’t but it would be a fun watch lol.

LOL Point-Jaxson is NUTS.

I'm just confused about whats going on. We decided to start tanking during the easiest part of schedule. Which is what you'd do if you wanted to lose games, I just dont understand the decision.

We aren't getting past OKC, so the most we're going to move up is 1 spot, from 10 to 9.
