Booker is... good

Paolo with an efficient game = me happy

Other than one stupid shot, everything has come in the flow of the offense. That's the way it needs to be. If his teammates miss, they miss.

It would literally depend on who we have as a starting PG though. These are all theoreticals. I currently do not think we want to start or sign Goga long term playing our guard rotation because we can't have a non-shooting PG, streaky but improved Suggs, Franz who is struggling from three, a streaky Paolo, and a non-shooting C long term.

But yes, obviously if we get Simons or Herro or something, that changes, although I don't really see the Heat or Portland doing that.

Franz seriously needs to play better

they are leaving us open at 3. this should be embarassing for the front office honestly.

They are daring the Magic to shot.

Open threes are a good shot for any NBA team besides us.

I don't see how we win this

Personally?

I am not *not* trading Carter for value over the possibility of not being able to resign Goga.

Goga would be the starter and he would stay under those circumstances almost assuredly.
