Spo would have never played Precious the way Toronto is. He never even tried to play him with Bam


Bam in Toronto would be all nba, he’s neutered here

Our best quarter tonight we were just running non stop actions for Jimmy and Bam and they were just going to work. Spo will learn eventually

Going to need Spo to shake up these rotations.

Dedmon isn't playable right now. He needs to sit.

The more I look at it, based on the health and status of the roster, I'm not sure how we fix it. The construction of this team is so whack that everyone is playing up a position, and it isn't working.

Until we can either get healthy or find a 4 with some type of ability to crash the boards, we need to inject some energy, youth and athleticism into the mix. I'd try...

Lowry / Vincent
Herro / Strus
Butler / Martin
Cain / Robinson
Adebayo / Jovic

Team badly needs a trade for a 4 though. When Yurt gets back, get him with the starters and shift Bam to the 4 slot.

At this point, Olynyk and Meyers Leonard would help us tremendously lol

I think Tucker was leaving no matter what due to the Harden friendship. Shame on the front office for having zero backup plan on getting any size. Not even scouring the G league aside from Days. Cain is 6’7 190 SF. Highsmith is utter garbage.

So weird to see Precious looks like a different player now, he looked like another butterfingered Joel Anthony in his 1st year here.

The Dedmon resign was trash. He was unplayable last postseason. He did okay his first year and part of last year but now hes just garbage.

We ran out of gas at the end there. Great shorthanded effort. Defensively we made them miss but we just didn't have enough juice at the end for whatever reason.

I’m actually open to the Yurt idea finally. If it’ll force us into putting more of the offense on Bam and having him attack his matchup because he isn’t running DHOs and having to do all the dirty work all the time

When it's working and we're at the top of the East, folks are still complaining. Things will work out, great coach and FO to count on

This team has a lot of issues that won’t get better until changes are made. We can definitely be better, especially with Yurt back, but the clock is ticking.

I feel like the fan base is picking on Dedmon now and for good reason. That signing made little sense as Dedmon was trending down last year.

The front office is seriously questionable. Do better.

The moves have to happen asap though, don’t wait to see what you have 25 games in or we’ll be trying to play catch up all year. We knew this wouldn’t work this summer, this is exactly what I expected after we did nothing

The handling of Yurtsevin and now Jovic may turn off a lot of free agents from signing here going forward. Just saying.

:lol: we can't tank. It's too late and it would be too obvious. Silver would penalize our draft pick. Good for a gag though.

3rd favorite, I just know an elite talent when I see it and we’re not maximizing it. He’s being wasted being used getting everyone else open looks and has been for years now. Leads the league in screen assists. He needs to be a scoring focal point.
