Vaughn changes so far that I've noticed:
Heavy minutes for the starters.
Total green light from the mid-range.
More switching and more doubling on defense.

He also recognizes Prince is a small forward and played him there next to Chandler some.

Kenny was doing the same thing. The rotation isn't much different except LeVert is playing 37+ minutes and DJ is playing way more than JA.

Theo will have to get cut. It's unfortunate but Cheese is clearly the better player and he's worth retaining both now and next season.

The only other two who would be candidates to get cut would be Rodi and Musa. I'm not sure that I'm comfortable cutting either of them.

I wouldn't be so sure. TLC is kind of easier to waive

Looking at the schedule it's hard not to think about worst case out come which is 8 seed. Next five Orlando games vs chi, vs Cha, @ Det, vs cle, vs sac that's four wins for sure. Than we get to see them twice, they beat us two previous times. Hello eight seed.

Pinson is getting cut for sure. I like him but it is what it is.

Pinson has a team option for next season, TLC is guaranteed 1.8 million plus he fulfills a role of need off the bench at the wing. I love Theo, but his time is up.

Time for Theo to go. He survived Shumpert but he won’t survive Chiozza. He’s been regulated to being KD’s 3 on 3 scrimmages and he’s wasting a spot for an actual NBA caliber player.

No brainer on this one.

Kenny played Prince as a power forward. The only time there was a change in the rotation was when somebody was injured. He made a change starting Chandler for the last game he coached.

San Francisco just banned any public events that have more than 1000 people. We play the Warriors tomorrow night.

I guess the league might institute the empty arena policy very soon.

Just saw that this Corona virus is serious. Looks like the NBA is going to be with no fans schools are closed in New York.

Excellent TEAM win.

We need to play with same focus + intensity for the rest of the season and we can make some noise.

The crazy thing is that I didn't even feel like we played great, we just grinded this W by playing hard and together.

Might as well. With the way Washington is bungling the response to this, states and cities have to take measures into their own hands to protect the public.

This could be the beginning of the new normal for a while.....we take stuff for granted and then it's gone.

The next game I have tickets for is the Clippers on the 25TH.. I might just put that as a deposit for next season.

All kinds of worst case scenarios being predicted now...

If State governments take the proper measures to identify, quarantine and contain this won't be some apocalyptic event as we're already seeing cases of it start to drop in China and South Korea.

The key words are state governments, because the federal government effort is currently being overseen by a pack of lunatics. I have more faith in Trenton than I do Washington right now.

He doesn’t run plays. He holds the ball up. Forces things. He had two offensive fouls and another turnover in the last few minutes that almost cost the nets the game.

i guess you missed the fact he hit the game winning shot?

We beat the lakers in LA with the lakers playing great ball of late.

christ ive never seen fans so fickle.

dinwiddie was outstanding
