CJ williams just torpedoes any line up he is on.

I don't buy it still that we will be better without him. I think we will fall off hard in most cases. With that said, if we get a good package of current players, there is still a chance we could field a competitive team that could push for playoffs. Okogie has moved the needle up some and depending on who we get back, it could be enough to make up for a lot of Jimmy's skills, maybe even give us new strengths (like another dead eye shooter, great rebounder, or great inside defender).

I know when we're 2-8 from 3...were best of casting them early in the shot clock

People can't knock Thibs for not playing young guys.....

Biggest problem right now is lack of ball handler for the 2nd unit with all 3 - Teague, Rose, Butler all out

theGreatRC · Post #48 » by **theGreatRC** » Mon Nov 5, 2018 2:41 am

This lineup is HORRIBLE.

Wiggins with no rest
rookie PG playing his first minutes
CJ Williams
Tolliver
and Gorgui

**** Jimmy Butler for always messing with the rotation

It really sucks how Gorgui was one of the better bench bigs in the NBA and just fell off a cliff never to climb back up. Thought he had something good there, Adelman got some good stuff out of him, dont know what happened since, maybe Adelman's system covered a lot of his holes.

Wiggins no interest in rebounding. He's having to do everything out there but still, it's important.

Taj and Tolliver are also very weak DRebbing 4s.

Wiggins is so dumb man. He knows hes struggling shooting the ball, why not take it to the rim and draw fouls?

Frustrating thing is this is a winnable game if Jimmy was playing but he is freaking sitting out....**** it man..we have Rose, Teague out and are in need of ball handlers...Jimmy would have been valuable tonight

Just realized we dont have one white player on the team.

Averaged 2.3 ppg and 2.7 mpg in 7.3 mpg when coming off the bench for Adelman. It wasn't until he started those last 15 games that Adelman got good production out of him.

He seems super heistiant to attack. I think its his bad handle. Its really annoying how much he only dribbles to get a mid range look that bricks.
