need us to win this
Biggest game of the season so far
Is Covington playing?
Batum out which means Oubre probably starts. Hopefully he balls out and it makes the decision to send Tobi to the bench a lot easier when batum returns. Going to require some interesting lineups against the twin towers. Lets see what Nick Nurse cooks up.
Idc about Chicago, but this is the one I want to win. Would be nice to have Batum, but hope the guys can get it done
Batum is so necessary against Minnesota, it’s very hard to unlock that defense without his shooting and passing. I honestly don’t see us winning this, but I’ll be happy with a solid performance from Jojo and Maxey.
