Fournier starting. Rose 1st guard off the bench. Obi 16min a game. IQ stuck at 22. No Donovan Mitchell.

What a time to be alive.

No surprise. Grimes will need to ball out and even then Fournier may still get the benefit.

sorry if you don't trade for mitchell because of grimes, then grimes doesn't have to "ball out"

you start him because you made him untouchable.

This is a “Rehab Movement”

Gotta get Rose Julius and Fournier right. This front office would rather try to increase their trade value then the guys on rookie scale deals.

This really means nothing. He can start him and pull him after 4-5 minutes like he did with Elfturd. Ahh. Whatever. IQ/Grimes/Cam/Obi will be fighting for minutes again. Go figure.

[*]Of course he's the front runner to start. He makes too much money not to. Now if **** goes sideways to start the season then it might change. This statement from Thibs is not surprising.

I agree and normally that would be true. But unfortunately it’s up to Thibs

so with zero minutes at the PG available because Brunson/Rose.

Fournier starting at 2 guard.

RJ at the 3 with big minutes

Randle at the 4 with big minutes

Zero minutes at the 5 outside of Mitch/Hart

that leaves IQ/Grimes/Reddish/Obi to split 40ish minutes between them :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

ultimately this is a leon rose issue

thibs is going to thibs...leon rose job is on the line and thibs is tanking all our young players value...he needs to be fired and JB needs to take over.

you know that is not how thibs operates...his starters play huge minutes...its always the case.

Elf has to play bad nearly the entire season for him finally to limit his minutes in the playoffs :lol:

This is just continuing with the obvious disconnect between the coach and the front office, and the continual dysfunction from the top on down in this franchise..
