And so it begins...I don't even know where this may have occurred last night. Wonder if this general soreness from tweaking it in the preseason. If he has to miss the game, throw the rook out there. Give Isaac the minutes.

I guess it was that hard-ish fall he took where he needed a couple minutes to gather himself before shooting the free throws. I think he did initially grab that ankle.

It was when he fell down after he was fouled. You could see he came down awkwardly on his foot and he was flexing it for a few possessions afterward.

If you start Isaac for a few games and he somehow really, totally blows it up, what happens when AG is healthy?

I doubt Isaac will be allowed to take very many shots this early in his career in such a scenario... plus he's still going to make rookie mistakes. He'd go back to the bench... he'd likely get more minutes though. Or maybe it gets Vogel to try Isaac-Gordon together?

Vuc at the 4, Start Speights at the 5

Brooklyn is a super small fast team outside of Mozgov I think. Vuc on him is a good matchup. You could almost get away running EP/Ross/Fournier/Simmons/Vuc against the nets. Someone athletic is going to have to match up on Booker to contain him. I'm sure Isaac could fit as well.

We need Simmons energy off the bench!

I would start Hezonja cause he can definitely stretch the floor and can help regain his confidence in his game! All eyes on Mario!

By the way, even with the win last night, we couldn't escape being a butt of a joke on Inside the NBA.
