Yes, keep shooting Markelle. Everybody else does, you may as well too.

Just what we need, have MCW running the same plays as T Ross...

You bench the starters to make a statement the way great coaches like Pop do. Wholesale substitutions to send a message.
The 2nd unit hasnt looked any better though. The sixers are making everything

No one expects the 2nd unit to do better. That’s not why a great coach yanks the 1st unit

With Ross and now Evan out, we needed a big game from AG, we got maybe one of the coldest games I've seen from him

AG needs a change of scenery.

Just wish we had Isaac instead of AG, and SGA instead of Evan and Mo (or literally any other C) instead of Birch

Seems like he hasn't been cleared to play yet. Maybe next season.

Hes gonna need to develop a floater. He can get to the rim but has no idea what to do once he gets there

I'd much rather that look from Cole, he's got a smooth looking J, take people off the dribble and look for the pull up, definitely struggling with his drives tonight

A lot of rookies have issues their first year finishing at the rim.

I was thinking that watching our game vs OKC, how bloody good would a player like SGA be for this squad

This is on the starters. They've been crap a lot of games besides the 4th quarter. Bench can't always bring it back/save them, especially without Ross.

He would be on the bench next to Bamba knowing our trash tier coach.

They get bumped a lot plus underdeveloped bodies tends to do that to you.

The first 3 games he was getting hammered with no-call. Eventually that gets in your head when you are going in on drives.

If we have Evan, Ross, Mo, Isaac, and AG injuries its time to just start tanking. What is the point in trying this beat up. Trade em all.
