this lineup was the most spacious for Shead to show how good he can be.

He knows where the bodies are buried.

He was always strong. Always had the ability to finish through contact and Bully his way to the rim…

Imagine if quickley could beat his man off the dribble, that would be nice

Id happily take him over Quickley

I was hoping Atlanta would trade him... he is exactly what we need over IQ.

Heck, we loved Lowry and we all know how annoying he was loll.

Quickley making 32 million to brick wide open threes isn't going to cut it.

I fully expect his shot diet to change this season now that we're actually trying to win.

I was worried, but the last pre season game and so far here, clear concerted effort to use his strength on the interior.

Ingram really unlocks this team. If he gets hurt I haven’t really seen enough from anyone else to be confident we can consistently win without him.

Ingram demon time

RJ's the only guy who is a constant downhill threat. If a dude like Scottie had the mentality RJ has to get to the basket...you'd unlock a much more aggressive and forceful Scottie.
