This one has danger written all over it. The bulls are rested and play with legit pace. Paolo was already sucking wind last night. Now we are down Suggs as well on the second night of a B2B.

Would not be shocked to see us struggle whatsoever. Franz is going to have to carry us.

Or maybe they pull a Dallas and start Franz as PG (I’m half kidding).

Interesting tidbit, Black was the first PG off the bench yesterday (ahead of Tyus). Black is doing everything in his power to ensure everyone knows he’s not a point guard in ANY sense.

With that said, I think you should move Bane to the 1 and start TDS. Bane ran a lot of the point guard duties in Memphis when Ja went out. I think he’ll be alright for one game.


Bane
Wagner
Da Silva
Banchero
Carter
TDS can't stay in front of 3s. He definitely can't guard 2s.

I'd say start Black and let him play 30+ minutes.

If history repeats itself, big night for Paolo incoming. He usually comes out with a vengeance after such an abysmal game. We can only hope.

Then again, he got injured against the Bulls last year and PTSD is a thing.

They can’t play Jase or it would lower AB’s trade value.
AB is currently being showcased.

This will be an interesting game with Suggs resting. Knowing Mosley and the NBA (of which a large percentage of the coaches are bad) he still doesn't play Richardson. I've been watching Mosley coach for 5 years now almost every game.. I've never been a fan. He's a company (NBA) guy and a terrible offensive strategist (great defensively though). Jett will get more minutes because he's been in the league longer. He'll play Jones Bane and AB.

My god... Tyus doesn't even try on defense. Like literally doesn't try. I've very interested to see how long Mose will tolerate it.

I can’t watch Wendell Carter. What a scrub. 3 shots just totally off taking one dribble pull-ups ups like that’s the best option on offense gtfoh

Rebound the goddamn ball and play defense

Return to Orlando Magic
