Can goga play with wcj?


Isn't WCj originally a PF but started to play the 5 bc we didn't have anyone else then once we got PB he was cemented in? I think he would do really good playing PF again his natural position.


He did great playing PF next to Bamba and Bol.... so.... i can only imagine the type of defense that would exist with WCJ and Goga. Was what i was hoping for once Paolo went down. I would love to see him take some more offense. Go back to Duke days...Post move....puhlease! lol

Let’s hope that he can continue to hold the fort down. It’s interesting that it coincides with taking Suggs off the ball.

The east is a wreck… and there are injuries everywhere. We play Charlotte next and they just lost Miles Bridges.

If we can stay afloat, maybe this Paolo injury can be a blessing in disguise.

At 5-6 we are in 4th place!! Time for Weltman and Martins to pay themselves big bonuses!!

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

I do. He was playing solid. There will be plenty of games where out of Isaac/Moe/WCJ/Goga one or two will be ineffective.

Cool. But there needs to be discussion beyond "Goga is better" because that's all debates devolve to on this forum. Same thing with AB/Suggs discussions. No, one is not making the other tradable. They both clearly have places on the team.

A healthy WCJ and Goga in the rotation is even better. I do not trust Moe in high stakes games because of his defense and his offense punishes bad defenses but is less good against better teams. So yeah, just having healthy bigs able to play is helpful.

Yeah, that's fair. Both should be in the rotation

Like I said a week ago, just survive and hover around .500 for the second half push.

He is better sometimes. Wcj has his flaws, so does Goga.

Wcj is more versatile as a defender but cant really defend the paint.
