Kelel Ware just changes everything down low defensively

Herro gets blown past on one end and causes turnover on the other end

Jaime just has to hit that wide open corner 3 just has too. I don’t think i’ve ever seen PJ Tucker miss one of those

Need to let Christopher play. Need a pressure guard who will also leaks on fast breaks.

As terrible as the offense was to start the game down 12-0, the second quarter offense was even worse.

Magic fan here... WTF has the FO not added more size? IMO, Ware and Bam should be on the court together as I've never been a fan of Bam at the 5. I get that you guys don't have any other centers but that's on the FO. The FO is dealing Spo a bad hand without being able to do that more often IMO.

If you are going young, let them run. Put them in position to run.

Admittedly, I don't follow your team but I don't hear complaints about Bam at the 5 on the GB or in basketball twitter/YT so I wasn't sure what the thoughts were on the board. Thanks for the warm welcome...

Hahahahhaha we cry about this on a daily basis. Spo is not innocent though. He’s been doubling down on small ball for most of the year until recently. Bam, Ware and Jovic have been seen plenty now the last few games. We don’t have another 4 with size which we are in need. Spo plays 6’5 220 Highmith at the 4 and will never play Ware and Bam together. I’m a big Da Silva fan by the way. We could use him here starting next to Bam.

Then trade Jimmy for any picks or “youth” and that doesn’t excuse the BS he’s out together prior years or were those youth movements too? Stop talking out of your ass there is no youth movement these guys are ass

Yeah, I don't get the small ball thing. I get it out of necessity but has been going on for years it seems with your team. Anyway, good luck with the rest of the season (minus our games of course

Stop whining, and being willfully blind. And stop searching the web looking for someone else who whining. Riley never builds a title team with this much youth. There is a lot of young players on this roster. Jimmy said he was leaving so he is not priority. They will trade him when they are ready to do so. Or let him walk like he said he wanted too.

Spo the last time we lost to you guys was gloating about the dynamic size of your team but then he’ll go back to his old ways and play super small. He’s been better lately since playing Ware but the roster for sure is missing a 6’8 or 6’9 PF that can start next to Bam. Been pushing for John Collins.
