That is correct.

Not much else they could do to Olynyk, other than make the suspension longer.
Agree the JR Suspension is right.

But the Olynyk one is the one that gets me. If a suspension type offense occurs during the playoffs, and that players season is now over, the Suspension should carry over until the next time that player is in the playoffs.

Unreal Olynyk only gets 1 game. Complete fucking bullshit. It's apparently okay to fucking karate ninja a players arm, injuring him for the rest of the season (basically....I doubt Love plays anymore this playoffs). Just one game no biggie.

That shit pisses me off.

The JR suspension is fine although I would have said 1 game.

Delly won't start.

I'd prefer it to be

Kyrie
Miller/Harris
LBJ
Marion
Moz

If only to keep the rotations pretty much the same in regards to who goes in and out.

There was pretty much a zero chance that JR was only going to get 1 game.

Hopefully Mozgov and TT can stay out of foul trouble.

I don't know about that but I do think it should be weighted differently. One game in the playoffs should be 5 games in the regular season.

NBA went light on both guys in my opinion.

Definitely he was a repeat offender. Shit I was hoping for 2 after I was seeing tweets of possibly 5 games.

Just saying if you're going to give Olynyk one regular season game, then JR's should have been the first three minutes of the 1st quarter of the eastern conf semi's. Lol

I'd be ok with that too. I just think something more needs to be done, missing opening night seems like such a slap on the wrist.

If we're starting Harris, who floated between the D League playoffs and dressing on game nights...we're in big, big trouble.

I think shump gets the start and more than likely James jones. We will see LeBron playing the 4 a lot this series

Kyrie
Shump
jones
james
mozgov

Oh I agree^

Just don't want to see them mess with the rotation too much, and if we start Delly, Kyrie will have to play the whole game.

I think its much more likely to see Miller, or Harris starting than Delly. Moving Shump to a starting role, wouldn't hurt the rotation as much, just need to Have Miller/Harris step up on the 2nd team.

Yea, Jones will probably be the better option. Need him to start hitting some shots though.

I wanna see Miller in for JR, and Jones in for Love. That maintains most of the rotation patterns and still provides spacing. Plus, they've both been here before. This is the reason both of those guys were brought in last off-season.

I'm pretty sure Mike miller is washed up. He never gets any PT

Miller, Jones, and Marion getting such little PT in the regular season may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Going to have to be a group effort to make up for Love's rebounding ability. I think Kyrie and Shump stepped up last game after he was out. Wouldn't be shocked to see most of the games in the 80s.

I think it's because he doesn't defend well. But he would provide spacing and basketball IQ while allowing us to keep guys comfortable in their rotation. If he sucks, obviously don't use him. However, I don't necessarily think that's the case.
