I'd like him to play more, no doubt, but he isn't good enough to be given free reign. Just give him time and bring him along gradually. He still has plenty of time.


He was one of our best players against GSW and is one of our best attackers.
He clearly is our best defender and 2nd best rebounder. The core is Dipo, EP, Tobias, and AG.
The rest are spare parts. Who cares about that fallout...they won't be here in 2 years.
Most season ticketholders I know, myself included want to see EP play his position and be given reign to compete.
That's all I ever said from inception.

We will not get anywhere without Vuc. Right now, he is by far our best player.

Ep and oladipo should start, fournier should come off the bench at the 3 since ben is playing well right now.

He may or may not be our best player, but if he is, it certainly isn't "by far".

Agreed. Fournier looks confused at times on when to drive out there with DIPO since they are both
naturally 2 guards.

I do apologize I left Vooch out. That was an oversight. He is clearly apart of the core.

He is one of our best players. Certainly our most consistent.
