I want Jalen to have a great game because this is his hometown. Last time he got ejected with Bamba...so hopefully this is a different game.

This is a game I really wish fultz would stay on the bench. Not going to be anything on offense for him since he won't be getting anything at the rim with gobert and doesn't know how to take a jump shot. Completely useless off ball too. I'd rather start AB here

Complete hell, I'm not sure someone has guarded him better this season than McDaniels

McDaniels is a great defender and I'm pretty sure they know each other being from Washington. Like I said though, Paolo needs to get him in the paint. McDaniels is too fast for him on the perimeter to constantly try attacking him off the dribble.

Some team movement and Paolo/Franz actions on offense would be nice too.


Agreed but alot easier said than done with Gobert waiting in the paint

Having Franz play this game unlike a couple weeks ago should help

If I had to guess though, theyll probably put Gobert on Fultz so he can roam around the paint more freely and shift all their players up 1 position on defense

Either that or hide Towns on defense by guarding Fultz

Probably a mix of both

Got to get some revenge after the blowout loss to Minnesota in Orlando.

Boom! I knew my hunch about Cole having a history of good games there was right.

Who’s opening doors when our guys shoot?! Fultz and Franz nothing but air.

I was waiting for a team to do what the wolves are doing against Fultz. Literally not guarding him unless he's near the paint.
