Please bare with me... I made a new game thread template and want to test it out. I have to do some adjustments to get the picture to fit properly but it's going to take some time.

Sorry for the radical change haha. Feedback is welcome.

Interesting line-up. I think Hawes expends energy...Turner comes up big on the offensive end...Jrue shoots alot...and Lavoy gets some well-deserved minutes.

[sixer04fan]

Yeah I'm seeing big games for Jrue and/or Turner. With basically all of our other scoring threats not playing, these two are probably going to be pretty ball dominant. And they're not exactly facing the toughest defensive backcourt in the world either in Jennings and Ellis. Unless Collins rests them for most of the game, which is possible too.

Let the tanking begin! Im gonna be cheering for the W but I am expecting a double digit loss if the Bucks are at full strength. I think they will take out their frustrations of missing the playoffs tonight while they are at home. If it was here I think it would be different. No biggie tho cuz I am sure everyone prefers to stay at 8 and play Chicago

Jrue better not play too many minutes. He's arguably our most valuable player for the playoffs. And I'm not sure what Hawes can gain by playing a lot of minutes since he is an injury risk. I don't even want to see Turner for more than 20 minutes.

Bring out the X man.
Release the Brackins.
And have them guided by the veteran influence on the court of Tony the TIGER Battie.

My only hope for this game is that no one gets injured.

Love the game thread.

Will be an interesting game - sort of the blowup lineup many have wanted all season.

[steagles]

i'd like to see what hawes can give you when playing alongside vucevic. they haven't really used those two together at all this season (just 15 minutes over 2 lineups), and i'm curious at what the team could do on the glass with the two centers and turner on the floor together.

Hawes will find a way to wear his skirt during this game....

Is it me, or does that picture of Ilyasova look like James Franco after a bad haircut.

Hahaha. I've never noticed it before, but as soon as I read this, before I looked back at the picture, I knew exactly what you meant. Awesome.

For people following these things, we should be rooting for the Knicks over the Clippers and the Bobcats over the Magic tonight - the latter because a Magic win would mean the Knicks couldn't catch them for 6th, so they might tank for 8th.

No way in hell the Magic lose that game. Hopefully Silas, Vuc, Sam Young, and Battie get plenty of minutes and we lose. Should secure the 8 spot for us.

What the **** is wrong with Evan's voice? It makes me laugh everytime.

A Knicks win and a loss by us tonight and it won't matter. We'll clinch 8th at that point.
