Umm we need to see what Fultz has in him as a starting PG, and we need an athletic pure shooter at starting 2. Keep AG and Isaac. Not sure about Vuc. Definitely see if Bamba can explode

Those aren't the guys that are killing us.



Yea but Magic are being killed by Siakam and Leonard and only reason why we keep forcing 2 PFs is because they are allegedly elite defenders, and him being wracked by Siakam and Leonard defeats whole purpose of their (co)existence.

Guards are utter trash but that's nothing new, and again it ties with Magic Gordon- Isaac problem ,as team has nobody on guard or wing position to handle ball and be secundary ballhandlers.


Those guys are defending them almost as well as you can. Kawhi' shooting 27% tonight. And Isaac has been doing great cover defense cleaning up rotations for others. They anchor the defense.

That means you've got 3 other positions for players to be those scorers we need and none of Vuc, Fournier or DJ are consistently stepping up to fill that void.

If we had a decent offensive output, we beat the Raptors, they are good, but can be beaten for sure.

If you think those guys are playing bad defense and getting wrecked, I dont know what game you're watching. Just because that is their primary defender doesn't mean they're scoring on them all the time or that they aren't making them work for hard shots.


I didn't say they play defense, i said they don't make enough difference on defense to jusfty their limitations on offense ,clear problems with them clogging two wing positions.
There is simply no versitality with them ,both are stiff with ball, both don't attack off dribble, both don't draw fouls and non of them is elite shooter.
There was really nice data few months ago how their net rating together isn't bad, but in both cases when one is off and Ross is in, team plays better. And it's not like Ross is some elite wing player, just gets a job done better.

Siakam is averaging like what ? 24 ppg on 50% FG, that's not working hard ... He does whatever he wants.
