Need to see some Hugo minutes in the second half.

What do y'all think about keeping him there?

We have a limited Bench, without him on it.

I've expected him to replace Jrue in the starting lineup for at least a year now. His defensive improvement has been awesome. Simons is here to try to make a 6MOY case this season

Maxey was torturing Pritchard. Missing that size from Holiday is really on display

Our starting backcourt is a collective 1-11 from 3. Mostly on good looks. That has to change.

Love the 10-Man. But give up the punishment subbing.

Nothing wrong with accountability imo.

Accept when it's been Brown in Tatum throughout the years. But mynot gave up an offensive rebound perhaps and was taken right out after doing well.

I'm going to check out that San Antonio Dallas game after this. That should be pretty good.

I like it.

I think it could work pretty well with him starting and Simons as the 6th man.

Sounds good. All except for Simons Salary; that hurts.

We were sleepwalking through quite a bit of that 1st half.

Hope to see Hugo in the 2nd half for a bit..

I've seen Minott and Boucher do a fair amount of that
Hugo will get his chances -- but game 1 half 1 he has guys ahead of him

Agreed. He looked so good in preseason I'm surprised he hasn't gotten any run. Maybe he was late for a meeting or shoot around

Joes subbing is insane tonight, needs to settle down a bit smh

I do not mind a 10 man rotation but in out in out is going to cause everyone to be out of rhythm.

That’s an understatement, you couldn’t even keep up with the lineup . Sub after sub after sub messes with the rhythm for sure.

Need to hit shots. Period. Bricks are leading to terrible transition defense and easy buckets.

Our big man needs an upgrade. Meanwhile, porzingis playing well for thr hawks

His salary vanishes at the end of June, and they're below both aprons with it
I think if he fits in well, they'll hope to resign him at MLE $
He's not going to be a $27M guy going forward

Who will get minutes first Hugo or Baylor?

Gonna be a long long year.

PS Zinger was debilitated with POTS last season.
Google it.
Orthostatic tachycardia.
Very common in Long Covid.

or maybe he's a 19 year old rookie

IDK about that.

I mean, if Mazzulla is willing to take Men out for allowing Offensive Rebs.
Why not take Guys out, when they're not clicking?

At least Hugo. He was playing this Summer. Not much rust on him.
