Oh great, just when we need to beat our fellow tanker, Evan comes back for THIS game.

[KillMonger]

man if we lose this game.....

[ChosenSavior]

Have a feeling that Orlando will struggle with Minnesota's guards all night. Their frontcourt is pretty awful without Towns so I do expect AG and Vuc to feast if their heads are in the game. Will Evan make a difference offensively? We shall see.

Last time we played in Minnesota Fultz gave them hell. Good times.

Damn... Evan is back and Minnesota sucks... this will likely be a win. Hopefully Minny will play us tough

[Knightro]

It’s kind of embarrassing how much I dislike watching Evan Fournier play basketball.

[ChosenSavior]

Evan being back reduces the amount of time Bacon plays. Bad sign from a tanking perspective.

[KillMonger]

yeah evan doesn't look 100%

[Def Swami]

A lot of “Who He Play For?” guys on the Wolves

Two tanking team makes for bad watching lol

[ChosenSavior]

Vuc will drop an easy 30+ on these guys if they don't bring the double team.

Chuck would fail on 90% of both of these rosters

[ChosenSavior]

Vuc never challenges head on at the rim. It's annoying to just see him stand there.

[Ducklett]

Cole Anthony just plays 5x harder than everyone else. It is a bit crazy.

[basketballRob]

All Minnesota has to do is take it to the hole every possession.

JI would've challenged that

I thought that was a good 10 minute stretch for Cole.

I really dislike watching Evan play, but having a second creator out there (and I mean a real one, not Gordon) really takes pressure off him from a playmaking standpoint and can help him pick his spots better.
