Queta, 18 mins = Only 1 Foul.
Now that's progress.

He seems like he wants to be somewhere else?

Brad had the chance to draft Kalkbrenner
But no, he had to be cute and get Amari and Shulga

And he knew he is going to lose 3 bigs

If winning this year mattered, that is the single biggest downfall for this team and brad. Bad enough. I want to consider tearing brad statue down. :banghead:

We need him for Offense.

The team was -11 in those 2 minutes.

Even more impressive against this big teen.

This is not the right trio to be sending in. Don’t piss me off Joe.

We could use his height.

Why do we have a ton of people on this Team, that we Don't want to play???

I am willing to see how Walsh continues on the boards for a bit. Minott has reached Boucher level rebounding.

Walsh = 5rebs and a blk.
Let's let him play.

He tries really hard, he really does hustle, but I’m just not seeing it. He has good moments, I’ll give him that, but it’s just something about him that I can’t get behind. I swear he looks like a sloth out there. I mean, the guy does give 100%, but his fastest is molasses.

Garza tries real hard he just can’t move his feet quick enough on defense

Luke Kornet eventually got faster.
Tacko Fall, from a poorer starting point and in less time, never did.

Perhaps there's a chance for Garza, but I wouldn't lay an even-money bet on it.

Sam and Simons come in and Magic score 4 straight points.

This is getting ridiculous.

Shulga Started in Maine, but only has 10 mins, through the 3rd. Not sure why?

Would be nice if Simons gave the Celtics anything

We''ve definitely reached Prime Jaylen!
I like calling him a Power Small Forward
