Holy crap, Rondo's out?



Well I think they will probably destroy them. There are D-league teams that could beat Charlotte. That said, no way I lay 10+ on the road with Boston, against anyone.

 

[Jord20]

Joe Johnson OUT

 

[Happy Hippo]

Thanks Jord - anybody see anything, feel free to contribute. Figured it would be good to keep last minute or big updates in one thread together.


Typically funny line from Doc when asked why Pierce is sitting tonight: "I'm just sick of him. Been with him too long.''

 

[the addict]

Wow lots of big names out.



Could be night for the dogs finally.

 

[Happy Hippo]

J.R. Smith's flagrant 2 last night downgraded to a 1. Will be in the lineup in their next game.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Crawford "expected to play" and Bledsoe will "probably not" play tomorrow.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Not sure this is relevant to anyone, but here it is.

Andrea Bargnani shut down for season with elbow strain.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Pierce, Millsap, and Asik will play tonight. Gay probable.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Jeff Teague out tonight - that is a huge hit for Atlanta...

 

[Happy Hippo]

Nick Young will play tonight.

 

[Happy Hippo]

When Teague has less than 5 assists in a game this season, the Hawks are 5-10 SU and ATS. When he has 10 or more assists, they are 10-2 SU and 9-2-1 ATS.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Josh Smith doubtful tonight (right knee sprain)

 

[Happy Hippo]

Rudy Gay is playing.

Wolves reporter says Rubio is moving "slow and kinda limpy" in the pregame warm-ups.

 

[Happy Hippo]

Bradley Beal (ankle), Trevor Ariza (knee), AJ Price (groin), Chris Singleton (personal reasons) all out for Wizards. They are down to 10 players tonight, playing fourth game in five days.

 

[Happy Hippo]

No official word yet, but there's a pretty good chance that Kevin Garnett will have tonight off.

 

[Happy Hippo]

No Kevin Garnett tonight for the Doc says his wasn't moving well at Friday's practice, uncertain for Monday vs Heat.



aka: OLD

 

[Happy Hippo]

Bradley Beal now decided he will play. He will come off the bench.
