Re: GT: Charlotte vs Philly 11/23 PM EST
can we sign Maledon now to a 3 year $6mill contract now? He just fits perfectly, solid and always ready to step up and be the backup. Young enough to still be a prospect, size to play next to Rozier. Get him while he's still cheap.

Re: GT: Charlotte vs Philly 11/23 PM EST
only cliff would interrupt a 14-3 4th q run to re-insert plumlee lol. sixers proceed to go on 8-2 to cut lead to 2.
at least he was smart enough to keep theo in

Re: GT: Charlotte vs Philly 11/23 PM EST
Thoughts from up close
Gordon Hayward looks frail, like he wasn't worked out in months. It was noticeable. He's probably just underweight/too lean to keep weight off the ankle. I don't think we can rely on him as heavily as we are, he needs to be off the bench in a 14-18 mpg role running the second unit. I also don't think teams will trade for him with his contract like I thought they would if he looks like he did tonight.
Plumlee is playing well, but Richards is just a bigger/better presence when on the floor. It makes no sense to not have Richards out there 28-30mpg. There's a noticeable difference on defense, even if you lose the offense Plumlee provides. I will eat crow on this one, I didn't think Richards was an NBA caliber player after last year. But he got swole, stopped f'ing around and started going up strong instead of getting pushed around (Mark take note)
Its not hard to like Kai, he's put in the work. Still a long way to go, but unlike Bouknight, he will be a fan favorite. His shot is way off though. Airballed a few times in pregame warmups from 3.
The food options are much better than the other home team. Tepper needs to take note. The Panthers provide **** concessions

its not like he subbed in two players who play well together... no plum and pj have been awful when on floor at same time. worst duo on team, 2nd worst duo in entire league out of the 200+ that have played 300+ mins together. net -17 rtg on season. cliff needs to try and separate those two more. maybe try -> plum/mcd = -3.5; nick/pj = 0.2 <- instead
