Mosley flipped the switch from player Dev to win-now like a boss. The front office didn't get the memo and there aren't any win-now options for him to play.

Wasn't supposed to be this good this fast... You had somewhat reputable people having us at 30 something wins this season. To some extent maybe even our front office didn't expect it to this degree

Jett will get a lot of PT next season and you can expect him to be in many starting lineup
In this scenario is Suggs the PG or the SG? I don't think we're going forward with Suggs at the point imo

I don’t think it matters much. There aren’t many true PG’s left anyway. We need a guard that can shoot off the dribble and handle the rock. Playmaking would be an added bonus.


Howard can pass some, he might be our best pick and roll guard next season (but i hope we will get someone better anyway). In theory Its better combo than with Harris or Black.
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

For sure, Mosley, Franz, Paolo, Suggs, Cole, and Isaac are crushing it. Honorary mention to Moritz.

Maybe we will see some goga tonight for some rim protection and rebounding?

Hope so. They need to sit |WCJ down and tell him to get his head back in the game or something. He is costing us games by being irrelevant.

I have a feeling he’s the type of guy who responds to a benching. He’ll come back fighting to prove himself and have some of his strongest stretches. I’m too lazy to find supportive data so I’ll just go with ‘feeling’ for now.

Obviously, I think Goga and Black should start.

I agree. I'm not low on Howard at all. I'm not sure it was the best use of a lottery pick considering the perceived lost of value but it is what it is. He has to play next year if he's not traded.

Shame JI still can't go on B2B. The Magic are over protective of him. I don't like it but I understand it. Gary Harris is whatever. At least they didn't start Fultz this time.

Paolo AND Franz have gotta show up more consistently bottom line.

Will the Wagners make a shot outside the paint in this one?
