That being said, I don't know if we win these two with him playing. That defense at times was Vuc level of trading twos for threes and the switch-ability isn't there. The offense was amazing, but teams also knew our offense when Moe is in with the bench unit, the ball somehow always gets to him and becomes predictable. Isaac and WCJ are absolutely maddening at times, but it does provide way more switching opportunities and also lets us play guys like Queen/guards in different lineups because of two defensive bigs roaming.
We'll def have games where we'll miss his scoring though. Especially until Paolo and Franz are back.
Any team anywhere can use 65% 13 ppg off bench no matter what you do on defense, might as well lay in fetal position below rim
But on top of that he was fire starter.
We have been playing with extra edge last two games, it probably isn't sustainable for long, but hopefully one of Franz- Banchero, later both will return to give us some sparks. But last two games we grind out like it's game 7 of finals. Only issue with that playstyle is that our players probably are more exposed to injuries than your average nba- half a***ing effort rest of teams are doing.
When you watch other teams, aside from OKC and us, it feels like shooting practice.
