Nope.  Just nope.

I would want him to play a minimum of 10 games before the playoffs.  Missing 4 months and then having your first game back be in the playoffs would be silly.

Damn...Junior Bridgeman died.. One of the key pieces in the trade that brought Kareem to LA.  Quality sixth man who's business acumen built a billion dollar net worth

Bucks won tonight so we are 1 full game behind them.  Half game behind Indiana.

Indiana plays against Philly tomorrow night.

Indiana and Milwaukee play each other Saturday night.

You really didn't want to lose to the Wizards on your home court when you were in a 3 way tie for 4th and your next game is against OKC. Zero urgency, got beat to all the lose balls, and the defense was non-existent.

JB didn't help matters at all by running his zero-defense lineup in the 4th. Where's Ausar? What about more Stew in the closing quarter? Nope.

18 minutes for Ausar in what has been a growing trend of Ausar's minutes and on-ball usage declining since Schroder has been fully integrated over the past couple of weeks. It makes no sense, since Ausar's rise was so closely linked with the team's success during the hot streak. Now we're seeing Ausar go back to his role when Ivey was in the lineup - in the corner or on the baseline exclusively rather than being used a ball-handler or screener. Ku did a segment on his podcast about it, so go check that out if you want more details and stats. It's a head scratching move by JB.

I’d also suggest the Tuesday thumping played into Thursday.  A young team plays around with its opponent like a cat with a dead mouse.  Sure Washington stinks, but they get paid, too.  Gotta wonder if the Pistons had a false sense of security factor into Thursday.
