Aaron Gordon is a team-high +7. On pace to play only 12 minutes tonight. Meanwhile, Orlando's defense continues to bleed. But that's none of my business though.

Yeah, Payton and Vic are both less aggressive than i've seen in a while. Hopefully he picks it up in the second half.

AG being limited this way is ridiculous man, why? you could actually see the difference with him on the court. Being too cautious imo

He's not even breaking a sweat and isn't breathing hard. The team is just being soft about the situation. If he's not ready to play then don't play him. Otherwise if the doctor says he's clear let the young horse run. He's 19 not 38.

Complete joke that we aren't up 20 right now. The worthless human being coaching our guys is holding us back so bad.

I can understand limiting AG's minutes some, as in not playing him 35-40 minutes immediately, especially coming off a stress fracture. But 12 minutes a game? Why not at least 20-24 mpg for a week? 12 minutes is comical, especially for 3 games in a row now with no increase. Is Henny still tanking?

It's the kind of thing that makes you think so. He has a clear impact on the game and then he is just shut down...tanking is the only thing that makes that seem reasonable.

Considering Vooch is the only one who brought it offensively, being down 1 isn't that bad. And AG is definitely further along than I thought he would be. He really has an overall game.

AG is 19 years old, our #4 pick, in great shape and WE NEED A SPARK. I don't even think jv has a clue of wtf he's doing right now. It's literally like he's out there just winging it.
