RJ is a project guys. This is all a part of the process. You see the flashes that make giving him consistent playing time worthwhile.

So if Bamba doesn't pick up that 3rd foul, was WCJ even going to play in this game?
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Damn what a play by Hampton

I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Guys like Al Horford have come out like professionals and said they understand the business decision and they will be working out to be ready for next season when a team calls.

... if someone as accomplished as Al Horford understands then why the **** are we coddling Khem Birch?? Kick that man to the bench and focus on our youth.

Cliff is trying to win games and teach the right way. Birch also isn’t a vet where you can sit him. Now Ennis & Bacon can GTFO

He would, that is how cilfford has been doing it since the trade. Wendell comes in 3rd and has been finishing the games. Pretty weird

I resent Clifford for not giving Mo these minutes prior to the trade. I also resent WeHam for allowing the situation to get to the point we’re most wrote him off as an untalented bust

Man, for real. I pray we don't keep Birch.

I think I'm to the point where I really wouldn't pick Mobley in the draft. We have some good potential already here at that position. A nice 1-2 combo. 1 guy with high ceiling, and another with a high floor.

Yes.

Clifford has been playing three guys at center.

Birch plays the first 6 minutes of Q1 and Q3.

Bamba plays the last 6 minutes of Q1/Q3 and the first 2 minutes of Q2/Q4.

Carter plays the last 10 minutes of Q2 and Q4.

WCJ is such a heady player. Never assumed that Otto was going to finish the break and chased down that rebound and got the put back. Love bigs who do that.

He’s part of the team so I’ll cheer him on but there is so much that he needs to work on. For example, I see elite speed but not the handle to get were he needs to go.

Nice choice of words as he also has a fairly large head as well
