[LeBowen]

Little surprised to see him sitting after not having to play too much last night. I don't think this totally kills his MVP hopes but with such little time left every game matters...something like 40 and 15 in b2b nights + 3rd straight game would've been a big deal in terms of the narrative out there.

I assume Kornet is back tonight?

This evaporates his MVP run. That fairy FTA is gonna get his second Steve Nash MVP

 

[goprimogo]

good test for the others i like it

 

[Coyote2!]

Sorry scott, at least you got to see him get a 40 piece last night

 

[NotRobDiaz21]

bruh wtf

 

[Robz4000]

If they're sitting Wemby then none of the regulars should play imo.

 

[NASpurs]

Watch OKC lose

 

[Tom-Tom82]

I see we're punting this one tonight.

I see we're punting this one tonight.

And the 1 seed. Fucking cowards

 

[Tom-Tom82]

I hope Mitch won't be kicking himself for sitting Wemby tonight.

Yeah man, it's frustrating.

What a fucking crock of shit. It’s obvious this team doesn’t care about seeding or wemby’s post season awards.

Say goodbye to the MVP he cares so deeply about .

Well, they are definitely giving up on the top speed, which is fine honestly. They weren’t going to get it. He’s not going to miss those two more games. We still have some tough games to go. OKC was not letting go of that top seed.

Agreed on all but Wemby not missing those two games. Think he'll sit those two games.

Wemby only played 28 minutes last night thats almost half of the game. Why sit him? He’s not injured.

 

[LeBowen]

We're winning if everyone else plays.

It’s absolutely ridiculous. Just makes zero sense

Probably a collective decision I would guess. I can’t believe he’s not giving his input. But he’ll qualify for the awards.

 

[timtonymanu]

I think it’s ridiculous. Guess Mitch doesn’t want to show his cards against the Clippers until the playoffs. but I’m also of the perspective that Wemby will be more motivated in our playoff run if he doesn’t have the mvp award.

 

[Neuromancer]

Welp. No reason to stay up til midnight to watch this shit

Tbh this shit is getting annoying. Let the kid hit his 65 games and then just sit him out the rest of the season since we're clearly not trying to catch OKC. What if he gets injured for real when he's one game away and he could've played tonight. Just dumb

 

[Correct Crusader]

I see we're punting this one tonight.

We're not gonna lose.

 

[Exstatic]

He understands that the playoffs are more important than a random game in April.

Punting any chance at the 1-Seed and MVP this late in the season is pretty wild tbh.

[Ni-G]

I don't care if Suns or Clippers or whoever. We are fucking second seed far away from 3rd and we should comfortably beat in a first round anyone from 7th seed if we are serious about contending. No excuses. Even if we lose tonight.

I hope Mitch won't be kicking himself for sitting Wemby tonight.

You don't really think it's Mitch's decision I hope? Because It's medical team+ FO or even FO using medical team as a scapegoat.
Anyway, it still can be a W if we shoot well and Castle contains nephew.
Or it's 4D chess for OKC pick.

 

[BatManu20]

Luke Kornet vs. Brooke Lopez, the Goliath matchup everyone wanted to see tbh. The fans will certainly get their money's worth tonight.
