If we keep our draft pick this year, we should just pick whichever Kentucky guard is available. Hell, we should just do that for the next few years :lol:

Nope. Don’t question the authority! :lol:


Our center spot is the luxury spot with 3 guys, not playing Cole or Okeke would require Suggs to have left immediately when Maxey got his second foul or playing AB .. 16 straight minutes?

Kind of stupid to not have Suggs on Maxey at all times in a game without Embiid. Mosely does some stupid **** sometimes with rotations.


I don't like the lineup, but too be fair, Maxey was out with 2 fouls early. Suggs may still have minutes monitored.


Yeah I mean. He scores 7 of his 9 points in the second against traffic cones instead of Suggs and they have to live with it I guess :dontknow:

I’m not paid to be a head coach and could have told you that was going to happen against Cole Okeke and Houstan


What is the alternative though?

Suggs played like the first 10 minutes in the first quarter and came back in with 7 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. He's on pace to play like 17-18 minutes in the first half.

Like sometimes guys just have to come out of the game and the Magic caught a bit of an unlucky break that Maxey got 2 quick fouls and came back in at a time he normally wouldn't have been in.

It’s not all that serious and they don’t need to match up 100% but we all saw Cole just hunted and killed over and over on defense and provided nothing on offense. I’m not looking for knee-jerk reactions but I would like our coach to read the room like the great coaches do. Nurse is an extreme example of this. Dude can coach (and kill his players with minutes).

This team as constructed will be better if it takes less 3pt shots, yes the paint will be crowded and so on, but most of our 3pt attempts are just straight out bad possessions.

I think the only answer is to fight to not switch so easily imo.. they need to fight harder

Is it me or have we been switching more as of late? I don’t recall switching this much earlier in the year.
