Do you think Bam is a better rebounder than Yurt? Do you think we will fair better with Bam playing center over Yurt? this is an honest question.


We went to the finals with Bam playing Center.


Correct, and then got eliminated by the Bucks in an embarrasing fashion the next. But that was not my question.
Do you think we have a chance to fair better with Yurt at center?


No because he’s a bad defender and we need Tucker in there to matchup with elite offensive players that would cook Yurt

Duncan Robinson sounds like he's been told he'll be coming off the bench for the foreseeable future. I think it's the right move. Congrats to Max Strus.

He’s outplayed him. That’s the truth of it. I like the message that it sends though - contracts don’t mean everything, the work does.

Duncan has been playing well as a reserve and will get plenty of opportunities. Ultimately, if he plays better off the bench, that’s a good result for the team and Duncan.

This home-n-home series with the Hawks could be the tipping point for them. If we can win both them that drop even further than 1.5 games out of a play-in spot. Dropping further could force Schenk to make a move in an effort to save the season. Collins will likely become more painful. With last years Cinderella run fans don’t want more lotto picks.

Nothing would taste better than being the straw that breaks the camels back for this team!

Apparently they’re already closing in on a trade for Simmons and maybe Harris from what I saw yesterday. Maybe it’ll mess with the players heads a little

Usually, if you wait, the Hawks will break their own backs.

Not exactly, Marcus Spears said on Brian Windhorst's podcast yesterday that Atlanta was in interested in Simmons and was talking with Philly but things changed when Morey tried to add Harris to the package which probably meant getting expiring contracts back. Windhorst then said he had talked to GMs who think Morey is trying to create cap space to go after Harden this summer, he also mentioned one of the scenarios of holding on to Simmons this season to offer him in a sign and trade for Harden. Need to remember that Morey can get highly creative much like his trade to get CP3 from LA to Houston.

Getting Dedmon back to give us front court depth behind Yurt is huge.
