I was wondering when this GT was going to be made.

Big game for the tank

I said Mogbo should start, but I'm guessing it will actually be Boucher, at least for the first few games. I suppose it could be Ochai, but we'd be playing fairly small in that case.

Mogbo should start IMO - let him just play the Scottie role and see what we got.

If Scottie is missing 15-20 games here might as well fire up the tank fully. Won't take much with him and IQ already missing however.
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

I like LaMelo. I think he's really damn good. Just a shame about the constant injuries.

Embrace the tank.

Voted: Ochai
- I've been super impressed with his play the last 3 games and with Scottie out vs a team loaded with talent wings in Charlotte, I think he'd be most effective. I'd throw him on LaMelo to start the game.

I was undecided to start the season regarding our tanking position but with Scottie now out 3 weeks and the other rotation guys still missing, all aboard! Realistically it doesn't really matter about the stance, this team just isn't good enough to win consistently without Scottie.

Mogbo rookie of the year campaign starts now!!
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando

With early season injuries we're either getting early TWO rocket fuel or rocket fuel for a late season charge out of a top-5 pick.

Mogbo would be a good replacement for Scottie. But I have hunch it's going to be Ochai.

If Ochai turns into a real 2way wing, that stupid Siakam trade might be upgraded to a C rather than an F
