Yet again Skiles mentions a lineup change only to disappoint everyone with same old lineup.

I'm curious how the analytics show that the team plays better with Frye on the floor. Compared to whom?

They must have glossed over the worst offense in the league part and the defense dropping as well and looked at the Oladipo switch.

Again this stubborn old goat Skilles, makes some epic moves.

Useless walking stick Frye in starting five, no words.

With the same players playing the same minutes in the same roles... expect basically more of the same.

I mean it actually might work against the Sixers because they are the Sixers.

I guess the good news is if it doesn't work, there's really no lower you can get.

I don't have confidence in this team right now. If they lose maybe then they can start really considering changing things up.

Well he's not wrong, the numbers do say when he's on the court the team is better offensively and defensively. And when he's off the court, the team is worse offensively and defensively.

...but he is only on the court for less than 18mpg.

Rotoworld pretty much destroyed the whole 'analytics favor Frye' nonsense, but whatever.

Bummed because I was gonna be ALL OVER AG in Fanduel.

Oh please, don't give me that analytics garbage. How about using your eyes and seeing that Aaron deserves a chance to start!? I mean what else does he have to do, and how poorly does this team need to play for it to happen? It's pretty obvious that there is only number that matters for Skiles when it comes to Arron and that is 20, as in 20 years old. Dude hates young guys and sucks at coaching them.

I'd like Aaron to start, but I'd also like to keep him and Fournier separated. The more he plays with Fournier the less he'll see the ball. Actually, that goes for almost everybody except Vuc and Dipo.

Ish Smith will show us why getting rid of him was a bad idea. And the other 4 will score double digits each

I want people to read between the lines! WERE SECRETLY TANKING and or benching some of our current starters will hurt their trade value! (therefore a lineup change is not happening).

Idk why some of you people even bother wasting your breath with this nonsense! 8-)

We already know what's going to happen. Frye goes 4-5 from 3 since we're playing Philly and continues to start
