Mitch
OG
Josh Hart
Grimes
McBride

Defense will be tough.

That’s a nasty defensive lineup.
I like the idea of Mitch with the second unit, but Anthony Davis doesn’t punk us if Mitch is playing. Depending on the matchup either could finish.

I don't know what happens at the deadline but, if we get everyone back and stay healthy through the playoffs, we have a great team.

Brunson/Deuce
DDV/Grimes
OG/Hart
Randle/Precious
iHart/Mitch.

There is so much defense in there and enough offense if everyone plays well. I really really reeeeeeeaaaaaalllllyyy wanna see that team.

Losing Quickley’s ability to score AND create hurt the bench. But having Mitch there is a big help re D.
Deuce is coming along on offense and not bad creating but ways to go, takes time.

I can see us getting bench help a pg but not a must to me. Grimes gotta pick up the slack.

All them picks…

Mid to late March for Mitch is my guess. I can't wait to see the full team healthy together. I think the team feels they don't really need much more than a healthy squad to make a run. I don't disagree. This is torture right now.

HopelessKnick · Post #91 » by **HopelessKnick** » Fri Feb 9, 2024 7:19 am

Great news! Seems like everything is going according to plan here. Gonna have a fresh and healthy Mitch back for the playoffs. I think a mid-march return is most realistic barring any setbacks.

Don't worry---from a medical standpoint---if everything the team provides is the truth and all these procedures went well and everything, we'll have everybody back by mid march----with like 15-20 games remaining on our schedule. Just enough to get everyone into a rhythm and with fresh legs into the playoffs. We'll be good.

This last trade means the franchise is going after a title this year

With all hands on deck we shouldn't settle for anything less than the final round

just in time to pump up his trade value for the summer

Mitch is a **** offensive player. Problem is he’s a Frank level offensively player due to his negative impact he has clogging the lane and allowing every defender to sag off of him and negate a lot of Brunsons rim pressure

Jose7 · Post #96 » by **Jose7** » Sat Feb 10, 2024 2:26 pm

I prefer to see him off the bench and hopefully off the roster in the summer upgrade the team in other areas

Very brief mention about Mitch at the very end here - on court activities to resume post all-star break but still a ways away from playing.

**** offensive players don't lead the league in FG percentage.
