Zach Lavine, Jayson Tatum, Julius Randle all stars. Pretty satisfying to see my basically home grown talent take the next leap to stardom.

Your starting 5 defense was too good, which led to a horrible first quarter. Looks like you suffocated my offense with 16 steals and were able to knock down the 3 point shot. Will have to tinker the line up a bit more but pretty happy with the Intel gathered.

I’ve been using this lineup since FVV was back from injury (back against Dallas game) and MP can tell you that too. I didn’t change my lineup for your team so not sure what kind of intel you’re looking for

Bagley is hitting the pine, Jakob is going into the starting 5, because Simmons has fouled out of every game since these trades happened. Don't like it at all.

He’s playing 38 minutes a game. That could be a factor. I went through the same thing last year. Have you tried lowering his minutes?

I mean he only hit 30 minutes in one game so far. He fouls out before he ever gets close and he was averaging 4.3 fpg in 28 mpg when I took over the team. Don't think minute reduction will help but I'll try it out if adding another defender to the starting 5 doesn't alleviate the issue (if it does though JJ might have to hit the pine too which sucks because he's been killing it).

The Denver Nuggets have agreed to sign David Nwaba for $1/3 years.

HEZI · Post #1900 » by **HEZI** » Wed Feb 24, 2021 10:48 pm

Read on Twitter

In addition to the steals, Nwaba is also sitting right around the top 50 in the entire NBA for defensive RPM at +1.30. His defensive box plus-minus is also a sparkling +1.2, and he holds an individual defensive rating of 106.1, which is better than Anthony Davis (106.2), Paul George (107.5), Myles Turner (106.7), and Giannis Antetokounmpo (106.7).

n particular, Nwaba has really stepped it up in recent days, earning some extra playing time with Victor Oladipo on the sidelines. Over the last four contests, Nwaba has averaged 14.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1.5 steals per game on 54 percent shooting from the field. And while it can sometimes be difficult getting a complete picture on a player putting up numbers on a bad team, Nwaba has recently drawn public praise from head coach Stephen Silas for how he’s stepped up during a time of upheaval and injury. Silas said:

“Regardless of what happens, David Nwaba and Sterling Brown are on it as far as playing hard, taking what the defense gives them, not letting adversity get to them.

Oh yeah
