Orlando takes way too many shots

I dont watch enough Orlando to know if banchero plays defense


but I know most stats say Wagner does.


point being, I would think long and hard about turning banchero into full time pg if hes not playing defense as a forward.

but

they need to start preparing for a reality where Wagner and banchero top out as #2 type players.


They just need a good guard/wing to go get buckets and they're gonna be really scary. Feel like Demar and PG make a lot of sense for them. Stop gaps to let Banchero and Franz grow

I think they need a full time pg and #1 ball handler.

that can improve their overall shot quality as a team

Do we as Knick fans have an interest in either team vs Boston? Like, would the height of Orlando wear them out more or it really doesn't matter?

Why some on this board don't want Spida on this team is simply beyond my comprehension

Is Mitchell really ok coming here to win but see his touches and stats and ppg go down to 20?

I don’t see a fit guys.


If garland-Mitchell both can’t get 30ppg

Why would Brunson-Mitchell?

Mobley completely invisible.

i think no matter what other star you get there's not enough shots if you keep randle. he probably has to go. he'll become the new rj where it's just one scorer that needs the ball/bad defender too many.

Donovan is great but he is their whole offense. I cant tell which team would give the Celtics more problems

Mitchell the ONLY scorer for the Cavs in the fourth quarter. Leon needs to rescue him. I'm not even talking about for us, he deserves better.

That’s the only way I can see it working

And

I would be terrrified to bet my career on it working

Leon, Brunson, Mitchell, thibs all of them.
