“I imagine the (starters) will play. We’ll keep them to limited minutes. They won’t get 30 minutes or anything like that. But we’re still talking about (the plan for Tuesday) with the performance team.”

maybe we see starters on both teams.

Does Black see regular rotation minutes with Harris and Ingles both seemingly set to play.

My guess is no, but we'll see.

Harris needs to step up. Black is a better defender and playmaker.

Ugh. I'm prepping for my temper tantrum. I'll be disappointed if he hasn't straight out won the backup PG spot out of training camp.

Cmon man, even the most homerish of us can't envision us unless we were starting the tank right out of the gate.

I'm definitely the most homerish then

Playing Black and Jett at season's start over our vets would be embracing the tank this year

Interesting. So I shouldn't find young bubble teams with rookies in their rotations? Maybe I won't, I would just be surprised by this.

Not true. Otherwise Shaq + Penny wouldn't have ever been a thing.

What I dislike is that this means Anthony Black might have been a project. Vs trusting that he had elements that were game ready to contribute today.

If true, I don't even realize what the implication are for Howard.

I wouldn't mind joining you in your riot though. Where do we start? Downtown? Winter Springs? Winter Park Village? College Park?

Suggs in the SL will make me feel a little better. Harris better have a **** pulse though on the bench.

Be ready for the 2nd unit with no Black to make eyriq's head explode.

Looking around the league I am realizing how hard it will be for a lot of these '2023 lottery picks to get minutes. It seem like a good bit of them are either coming off the bench or have so many players in front of them that they cannot get in the rotation.

Please, everyone remain healthy and go Magic!!!
