Let's see if Vuc decides to show up tonight before the Bucks erase him with single coverage Lopez defense.

Would love for Fultz to have a huge game to emphasize how stupid it was to have him playing off the bench in the first place.

Fultz finally gets back into the starting lineup and we still stick him in the corner for a freaking Ennis/Vuc PnR.

Even the 'plays' we run with him are elementary school basic pick and rolls with no movement from his teammates. Cliff needs to go.

NAW having his first good game of the season against us would be poetic justice

The ball movement is night and day with Markelle Fultz at the point.

Someone must've told DJ that he was dribbling the ball too much because his passes have been precise and quick tonight.
