NGL it's getting really old being the most injured team in the league each year. I know it's something you can't really control but we have too many injury prone guys.

Is Isaac actually questionable or does he actually play?

Do we get Jekyl or Hyde Cole Anthony tonight?

Can Suggs contain Brunson?

Goga is good enough to be the starting center on a team that won 9 in a row, good enough to be the center to close games, yet isn’t good enough to get more than 12 minutes. Dafuq is Mosley doing?


Careful. Asking these questions will get pushback. Mosely is devoid of criticism around here.

They should definitely start Goga and put Wendell in Isaac's slot. AB should play 35-40 minutes. Caleb and Cole aren't a good mix. They need more ballhandling on the second unit.

Starting to see real disconnect between fans and Front office again. Happens every year. Fans put their energy and money into this franchise but get treated poorly every damn year. How about some transparency on why these guys are out so damn long. Crickets from FO as usual. Why do we keep wasting money and roster spots on these guys who have proven year on year they can’t stay on the court.

JI has the best job in the world. He was on light duty for 3 years, and now he’s on for a week and off for a week.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

Was at pregame Shoot- around watching Houstan & Cole. Pretty sure I heard Lionel Chalmers say to Cole

"That's going to help. OG fits nice"

I'm pretty sure I heard that clear as day since they were less than 10 ft away from where I was standing.

Weltham might be going after OG

Something that can't continue:
Paolo: 54 TS%
Franz: 55 TS%

NBA average last year: 57 TS% (Not sure what it is now, the mean is ~58 but I couldn't find a league-wide average)

Meanwhile:
Suggs: 60 TS%
AB: 59 TS%
