MCW with DJ makes sense. MCW with Fultz makes much less sense.

This game has gotten ugly enough to keep us in it.

Can someone explain to me why Isaac is our leading scorer and has only played 9+ minutes?

It's like we forgot how we played the last month of the season last year. Hate the Vuc 18 footers.

Nope. Nor can anyone explain why he didn't play in the entire 4th quarter last game.

MCW and Isaac might neutralize the awful defense by Fournier, Vuc, and DJ

If we want to win, the guys we paid to help us win need to play good. It's not about a 2nd string C switch with this team right now.


I agree with this. But you can’t play bamba over Birch IMO.

You have to give Bamba minutes to develop. Slightly worse back-up center minutes is the price you have to pay to grow your investment of a #6 draft pick.

I miss the days of us being terrible but just having some young prospects who tried to score and gave me some excitement.

Unbelievable how Augustine misses that free throw. That’s how this season has been in a nutshell

With how bad his reads are right now you have to just lock him in the film room or just run endless drills with him...

I hate our FT shooting. It is so inconsistent. Makes no sense.

They're playing a nice T-Ross tribute on the big screen. Maybe that will get him going.

He's dumb and weak and doesn't hustle. Literally the only thing he might be able to do at an NBA level is shoot a 3.
