Crushing defense seems tough without Isaac. He's such a lynchpin on that end of the floor. Even when he's only playing 15 MPG.


Probably a DPOTY candidate if he was healthy. Sad really. He is one of the few players I like to dangle the idea of keeping long term. Even 15 MPG he changes the game.

Ingles is a lot like that too.

maybe Okeke playing the Isaac minutes. I know people hated the starting lineup with him and Houstan but thought he played decently well in more than a few of those.

Fultz had 4 stocks. He was good dare I say great on defense last game.

Pleased for AB, he's earned the opportunity to get those extra minutes.

How much does it suck though to see 2x "injury maintenance" on back to backs, pretty over it
I still believe in Magic! Welcome to the Franz & Paolo era

I like Okeke, especially on the deep bench. I think he's got upside to be a solid rotation player. Curious to see how it plays out for him.

I wrote that before I really looked at the lineup, so I assumed Fultz and JI were playing lol.

But I still think this lineup is good defensively

It's either babying or they accepted the load management.... Its weird though, because Franz still playing even though he just got back.... He didn't accept the coddling in this scenario

Only way we get through Jaffro is by bruising him. I dunno if PB would power through or just "baby" it.

Carter thinks he deserves a foul call cos he grabbed an offensive rebound for once.
