Starting to get a little antsy over here... Just ****ing start the game already!

[smith&wesson]

is evan turner playing tonight? he is listed day to day but i have him on my fantasy team and i need to know if i should start him or not.

if any one can help id apreciate it.

[MylesKong]

Yes. He had an ankle late in preseason. Probably still listed day-to-day as a precaution.

[The Ooh Child]

looking forward to more ShitMalikSays

Yh Turner looks like he's playing but in your fantasy team? Dude c'mon. Malik is the player im most looking forward to this season behind Bynum. If he plays well enough maybe he affects the size of Jrue's contract

[Korman12]

I'm actually really excited for Thad. He was really, really good in the preseason with the added muscle and this is his best opportunity to keep a starting job.

[TheDoctor6]

how many points do you think JRich will score tonight since he is starting?

[Caino]

Depends on who iggy chooses to defend i suppose. Im guessing he chooses Turner since hes the player that would be attacking the basket the most. (hopfully anyway)

Personally i think with Denvers bigs we will be playing catch up all night and JRich wont play more then 15mins and Nick Young gets the rest.

Jrue 17 points, JRich 7 points, Nick 14 points, wright 15 points, Thad 20

I don't think Thad plays well tonight. He usually does well against PFs that he can out-run and use his quickness to get around. Tonight he'll be playing against Farried who is just as quick and a great leaper.

He was almost non-existant against Taj Gibson in the playoffs and I think Farried is a similar style player.

[Reptar]

Lol

[Caino]

I know what or saying i just think with him as a starter and paticuarly with this being the opener he's gonna send out a msg

[sixer04fan]

Faried will be a tough matchup for Thad. The guy is a relentless beast on the boards. But Thad's game looked really promising in the preseason. We need a solid game from him tonight. He's a big boy, he can hold his own. He'll be fine.

I'm looking forward to this matchup, the PG match up, and the Iggy matchup the most tonight.

[Illa215]

I hope that Turner proves us all wrong and out-performs the best perimeter defender in the game tonight.. (Assuming Iggy blankets Turner)

[Caino]

No Gallinari so looks like cory brewer will start and chandler seeing extended minutes.
