I’d start the second half with Sandro

Poeltl is stinking it up right now

We have terrible defense. They are shooting around 60% and I don't think we can maintain the offense we're playing

Poeltl, CMB and Dick were the only real bad players in the first half.

Poeltl needs to wake the F up, we need more from him.

Overall, sloppy basketball. They're content to trade baskets.

They likely can't either.

IMO you can't be a wasted pick at #31, most don't even make rosters in the second round, so Mogbo is right around expectations.

They've had a lot of luck so far.

Like I said last game, he's the only guy that showed up out of shape, and it was the 3rd year in a row he does that. He needs 2 weeks off to get in game shape and/or recover from whatever is bothering him.

The bust rate after lotto picks is just really high in general. We are also really deep. Walter can't even get off the pine right now either.

Exact same thing was said last season to start.

I wonder how much he enters camp in shape

Add to this, he has always been a 25 - 28 mpg kind of centre, even in his prime. It's going to become even more important to find someone to play backup centre minutes.
