where all the PP lovers that were ecstatic to have him crack the rotation LMAO. Bench needs help, that's for sure! Starters look great, all we need to do is add some help to the bench. This will be a difficult team to beat in a 7 game series!


It’s been 3 games! SMH. PP will be absolutely fine.

Agree! Have to give them at least 4 games :wink:


I've seen enough of PP to say he'll never be a playoff rotation guy. Too much of a liability. Regular season, sure why not..... but we're talking banner 18 boyeeeeeeee

He literally played 12-15 minutes in every game in our only finals run and had a positive +- during that entire stretch just 15 months ago

People are talking about how poor the bench played because there’s nothing else to discuss. The starters put on a clinic.


Could've ended the post right here. Nothing else to discuss?? You could try discussing, I don't know...how "everything is peachy right now"? Or are we not happy unless we're miserable?

Well I mean, sure. The starters played great and demolished a tanking wizards team. They did their job and it was a short night where we didn’t have to play them many minutes. Don’t really think there’s anything to dispute in there.

And if they stay this way, then the bench is fine. These guys are supposed to be in there in a support role to our better players. Obviously an all bench lineup is going to expose our bench guys for their limitations. The worry going forward is still the same as it ever was. Health. The hope was one of these lottery tickets brought in to play off the bench would be able to distinguish themselves as possibly being able to take on a bit more of a role. So far that hasn’t been the case. It’s far too early to worry, but it’s also not something to be ignored either


Homer, we don't even have to dispute anything. How about we try just breaking down all the different things we enjoyed about the game? I mean, heaven forbid we try not having a dispute for 5 minutes. This is a fun team. An exciting team. I'm all in for ignoring those things for several days seeing as how we're at the beginning of the season. I'm trying to ignore that **** as long as possible so I can just sit back enjoy what we now have for a while. If I spend all my time "worrying" about what this team doesn't have, when they win it won't be a celebration, it will be RELIEF. That's a big difference. Not tryin to live that way.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Good grief - I hope this is a joke, smh.


Yes. lol. Tough crowd.

Bench isn't an issue. We aren't going to see 5 bench guys playing together unless it's in blow outs like last night.
Even then, Pritchard won't be going 0-8. I think Svi and Stevens should be part of the rotation, along with Queta at times.
But the season just started, they will get their chances soon enough.

He was way ahead of his time. Toine too ((but his 3pt shot and decision-making sucked).
