If KAT doesn't play tomorrow Ant deceived me. Maybe intentionally and maybe not.

:roll:

The big thing to watch is we'll have a fresh and motivated Naz after playing just 8 minutes tonight.

Not a big deal. I prefer KAT sit if he is not 100% ready. Tomorrow will be PO game with the intensity of PO game. Playing against Atl may probably more safe for a start. We need KAT at the first round.

My guess is no KAT tonight.

At altitude and a likely minutes restriction isn’t a great combo.

Give him a couple extra days to get ready and play him the final 2 games.

He is the Jokic whisperer. Plus this game is for all the marbles. I think we see him either during the non Ant minutes, or during the end of half minutes. If it is non Ant and he is playing well, he probably closes the game. If not, then Naz or Jaden do.

He misled, but only lied if that was his intent. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.

He didn’t say KAT was back, he yelled it to Target Center. How do you walk that back? Whoops guys my bad. Karl is going to miss the most important regular season game in… 20 years, but I gave you false hope.

Intent. Without intent there can be no lie.

A lie is an intent to deceive. He didn't have to say that "KAT is playing against Denver" to lie. Even if he did say KAT was playing against Denver he wasn't lying if he believed it. If his intent was to make people believe KAT would be playing and he knew he wasn't he was lying. I doubt that is the case.

He was asked about Karl being cleared for 5 on 5 full contact and yelled (paraphrasing for spelling,) “he is back baby!” To me that means playing.

Well I guess that's on you then. If he was asked about KAT returning for the Denver game and said that, there would be something more there for you to stand on.

Are we making this a thing? KAT playing tonight would be a horrible idea. Coming back after knee surgery into a huge game, probably both rusty and out of shape after limited activity for an extended time, and we’re playing at altitude. Ease him in the last couple games. I can’t imagine he’ll be on a pretty severe minutes restriction for awhile. My fear is the knee is going to swell when he really pushes it for the first time.

He didn’t say Karl is cleared baby. He said back baby. What is back if not playing? You say tomato I say bullsh** ;)
