They shouldn't really be running plays for OG anyways, unless it's to get him an open 3.


Who's going to get all the touches then? Hart? DiVincenzo? Grimes?


They'll need to make another move to get a scorer for the bench to replace IQ.

The rest will go to the other guards.

I'm sure they will try to get more touches to OG and see what he can do though in the meantime.


If they're going to pay him the money he wants, I think they will try and see if he can expand his offensive game a bit as well.

He’s done for the season

Tough call to trade him for healthy C vs waiting till next year and they're set with him and Hartenstein

Lol Thibs played OG 20 minutes in the first half and he's barely been in the city for a day. OG is going to lead the league in minutes per game.

I'm worried about the Thibs/Nurse effect already. Gotta make another trade for depth. Or else Precious needs to step up as OGs caddy
