I just want to point out that even though his offense is rawer than Sashimi, Bilal Coulibaly has been playing some lockdown defense.

Poole put up a crazy stat line last game. No way he does that again, right?

I don't think so. We the long bois. Wingspan for days.

I like the look of our defense so far. Defender fighting over screens vs switching 100%. It's refreshing to see some traditional mano a mano.

Would love to throw some different looks at Poole a la JFL or Dowtin to see how they fare.

This is for the preseason rings babeeeee! Let's go new Raps culture.

Jordan Poole is one of the most unguardable players I've ever seen but we should be able to limit him to around 25. But who cares it's preseason

Poole is going to be a great pick up for Fantasy Basketball players. He has the full green light to do whatever he wants and will just chuck for days. Wiz don't care about winning so they will just live and die by whatever Poole and Kuzma do.

you play to win the game.. Hello...you play to win the game!
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

OG can lock him up if we go that way. Dowtin would do a good job but will he even play? Defense is reason enough to keep Dowtin, it's easy to imagine Poole absolutely lighting up Flynn. Or hunting Flynn in switches
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Is the Winslow signing like a 1 day tryout?

If not, then 2 guys have to get cut from the main roster.

or Maybe trade on the horizon?

He's getting cut almost immediately and joining the 905. This is just to get him more cash to play there.

Expect to see our real rotation tonight

I'd guess:

Poeltl - Precious
Siakam - Boucher
OG - McDaniels
Scottie - Trent
Schroder - Flynn

I think they give Flynn some rope early on to see what he does. Like everyone, I got low expectations. I want JFL to get them but it is what it is

Otto will get some minutes if he's healthy but he's a total wild card in my eyes

Thad only playing if theres injuries so hes out

Another game finally!
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Depends on if it's a close game or not. If it goes right down to the wire, I could see guys like Pascal and Barnes rack up close to 35 minutes.
