why? We're starting Houstan and Okeke right now with only 1 starter being out (Franz). We NEED a 5th starter and we're 3 weeks away from the trade deadline.

We're giving guys plenty of opportunities and they're not impressing.


This bleeds into EVERY topic on this forum about trades when not designated. Like it's understandable that we need players/shooters. But we're not even talking about the games half the time.

This is the first year the team has been good and we're not even talking about what's happening in the moment. Like it's a very exciting time and everyone knows this team needs to add pieces. But to complain about it EVERYWHERE like no one is aware is pointless.

we can multitask :lol:

Fultz is the best ball handler on the team, so he pops in that respect on this team full of non-handlers, but his refusal to shoot is just so rough.

Paolo attempted 17 fgs so that he can have 15 points.

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

It's fine he's not playing though because there will be injuries.

Paolo is not shooting it well but it's like he has to initiate everything, everyone else just stands around and waits for him to do something

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Hard to believe Fultz beat him out for minutes after being injured for the season.

I don't know if it's conditioning or what but his efficiency needs to improve. As much as the rest of the roster matters, we're not getting anywhere if our main guy maintains his sub-average TS%. His saving grace is his playmaking but he absolutely needs to considerably improve his efficiency.

Playing Wendell without Isaac doesn't look good
