How many points Lauri will score tonight vs his ''future team''.
If there is any real heat for Lauri's rumored trade to Detroit Pistons this is the game where Pistons mangement ( at least GM ) should be scouting Lauri.
Pistons dont have the assets to get Lauri from us IMO. It would have to be Ausuar and Holland plus two picks, and I think that's too much for the Pistons to give up.
 
I don't know about you guys, and I'm not the basketball guru that some of you are, but good hell, Nurkic sucks. He made the game winner, yes, but he's the most lackadasical, worthless, make-a-decent-pass-once-a-while, throw-it-away-more-likely, can't shoot, can't defend sob I've ever watched.

13 % from 3
39 % overall
3 turnovers / game

FANTASTIC tank commander, but unless it's full tank mode time, can we play Love or Tshiebwe or JazzAvenues instead? Nurk sure ain't long term plans guy.

We're probably going to move Lauri to the Heat for like Wiggins, Rozier's contract, 1 pick, 1 swap, and Ware (who will we probably dump elsewhere). This trade is an absolute fantasy. Ausar has more value by himself than Lauri.

(Lauri needing such a very motion heavy offense also limits his trade value a bit. I don't know if Detroit's nonstop Cade offense would fit him at all)
 
Ausar is so underrated. He's fairly comparable to his twin who gets 100x the appreciation, and I don't think Amen is getting too much praise.

DET is not giving up Ausar in a Lauri trade btw.
 
I'm interested to see if Collier gets some minutes tonight, and if he does who rides the pine. I'd be really disappointed if Harkless doesn't get a chance tonight. If it were up to me, Walt gets the start and Collier runs the second unit.
 
With Walker out I hope to see the lineup of Flip, Hendricks, Lauri playing together.

It also won't happen but would like it even more to have Ace at SG with that lineup.
