I'm guessing Griff may have gotten a call from the league about the rest rules for Prime Time TV games.

The @PelicansNBA should be close to full strength to take on the reigning champs tonight: Zion Williamson (r quad contusion), Brandon Ingram (r Achilles soreness), CJ McCollum (r ankle sprain) & Trey Murphy (l knee tendonitis) are all PROBABLE for tonight’s game at Denver

Good. The two teams I really don’t want to see in the playoffs are the clippers and nuggets.

I think we’d be very competitive in any other matchup.

Nuggets are a measuring stick and a matchup problem for us. Want to see how we measure up.

The Mavericks say Luka Doncic (right ankle) will remain out Saturday night against New Orleans but have upgraded both Dereck Lively II (left ankle) and Maxi Kleber (right toe) to questionable.


Wonder if they got word about Luka being out tomorrow and made the switch.

Good. let's keep this train rolling and see where we stack up versus the best.

That medical report just came back to the league with what SVG (and me ) had been saying all along: Resting these guys as much as they have been/stupid amount of load management has not resulted in fewer injuries. Hopefully the league starts making more calls like this and you see stars doing what they should be doing, playing more basketball.

This seems likely. It's also likely due to the Gray TV deal.

I’d sit Ingram if his achillles is actually sore

No reason to play around with that in high altitude

I’m pretty sure its not sore lol. These were all old or BS injuries that were put down so they could rest.

So tomorrow will be a bench game with all those guys resting. I’m fine with that so they can play Monday against the Mavs again.
