If Franz had a middy it would do so much for his game.

Underrated value P5 brings is drawing fouls so that are in the penalty bonus early, this helps us avoid scoring droughts even when we can’t make open shots.

He was working on it years ago. Who TF knows why he went away from it.



He has also bulked up too much. He looks slower/less agile.

I know WCJ is better at switching and is an average shooter most of the time but I think Goga just does more overall

I like both... we should bury Mo on the bench when WCJ gets back.

He needs to get back to it, his offense is predictable.

Problem with that is Mo is far superior to them offensively

Mo gives up more than he provides 75% of the time.

I don't mind keeping Mo on the roster as the 15th man on a minimum contract but anything more than that is crazy

What is JI’s obsession with dribbling the ball when getting an offensive rebound in the paint.

He needs to watch some Pau Gasol tape
