Duncan Robinson (Holland)
Steven Adams (Eason)
Derrick Jones (Collins)
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (Coward)
Ryan Rollins (Anthony)
Stephon Castle (Harper)
Svi Mykhailiuk (Sensabaugh)

I wouldn't count on Duncan being removed for Ron, it'll be for JI when he comes back. we need that shooting desperately right now.

Shaedon Sharpe should be on there.

He is ass.

Adams is the easiest call but it may not be for Eason. He's basically a spot starter until they reach the playoffs.

Svi Mykhailiuk is an obvious one. Not sure he'll lose it to Sensabaugh, but to Ace Bailey. It's also very possible it will be Kyle Filipowski who will lose his starting spot to Bailey, because SF is Bailey's natural position, and Svi will lose his to Sensabaugh.

I was at the bucks raptors game. Ryan Rollins was on the floor for over 60 minutes in a full sweat with 2 coaches before another soul on either team got on the court. He then did exactly what he practiced in the game. Idk if he holds the starting spot, i just want to say how much he impressed me.

He won't hold it because he is in Kevin Porter Jr.'s spot.

im not sure. Kevin porter jr is one of the worst defensive players in the leaue and the bucks are having no trouble scoring with rollins in the lineup. im sure they would like prince to start eventually, and porter jr with trent or aj green starting sounds, pretty difficult to scheme your way out of on that end. if im not mistaken, kpj isnt making enough money to mandate a starting job, or any playing time. really curious how they work this since the bucks dont have two way players in the backcourt.

Kevin Porter Jr is the starter for the Bucks.
He missed 2 games with an ankle sprain.

Dylan harper right now is better than the best version of stephon castle weve seen thus far. His jumpshot is what really separates him from castle. I believe he will start over him sometime in the latter half of season.

is there a way the nets can get the igor guy more pt? he seems to really understand the game and have a great shot off dribble.

He'll eventually get more mins but he's on mins restriction due to an injury

If Eason could handle the ball, he'd be a bigger threat to start over Adams. As long as there isn't someone on that bench who can dribble, I think Udoka is going to stay with the strategy of being giant and punishing the o-boards.

It will be interesting to see how the lineups shake out when Fox gets back and takes that lead guard role. Castle is more like an undersized small forward with his style of play. I think they'll play a lot of smaller lineups, with Castle still playing a lot but in less of a halfcourt on-ball role.

Playing small ball lineups would be a mistake.

Fox should get traded.

Yeah, Fox situation is similar to AD, where he gets traded to a team where the entire young core plays the same position as him.

They're not going to trade Fox this quickly. We haven't even seen them play and they invested a lot. NBA teams never operate like that.

This feels like someone challenged you to post as many entirely wrong things as you could in one paragraph.

As bad as Ace Bailey has been you would have to think he eventually takes the starting spot from Svi when he fully recovers from the flu

I think Okogie can take Adams off the starting line-up. He fits better in the starting unit as a defensive-minded guard.
