Someone please explain to me why do we have Joe Ingles on this team? We struggle from shooting 3s, he's known for shooting 3s so he doesn't take a single shot? What's the point of having him if we aren't going to use him?

We lost to a better team. Defended pretty well overall…they just had more firepower. Great to see signs of All-Star Isaac- his defense is all-world already, but if he can routinely pitch in…
Suggs tried to pull something and got caught. Late call- which I think illustrates the refs are trying to call less despite Silver’s denial. Once Fox stumbled, he had to call it…makes for an awkward look with the delay but guilty as charged…bad idea.

It was a good game. Emergence of a Magic killer as expected.

Wendell is a big dude 6'10 270 but when he's at the rim he plays like he's 6'4....ive never seen someone miss that many close shots in a season..... I'm not sure he can be our starter next season man

Free AB though. Mosley sucks in how he's handled AB.

At this point it is what it is..... Markelle is getting reputation minutes at this point. He's not really helping us on the courteyriq wrote:Free AB though. Mosley sucks in how he's handled AB.

I don’t get it either…how bad would he have to be to not take Fultz’ minutes?

Could possibly be that because it's damn sure not anything to do with performance... Fultz has been just not effective on both sides of the ball.... It just makes the coach look kind of crazy because you're rewarding bad play.... I think he was the first guy off the bench tonight..... Maybe coach is trying to get him back on the groove and show confidence in him but.... At some point you'd think you'd be objective, you got to put the best guys on the court and between Fultz and AB?

We lost by 2 to a good Kings team.

I personally don't think anyone is hurting us too much this season outside of maybe AB at times. The kid is a teenager still. Everyone is just really bought in and playing defense with intensity and doing veteran type plays. Of course, are there better fits to make in the summer? For sure.

I also rated them better than the Magic before the game. Their core had stronger Seasons and real Playoffs before. Even this season, I would rate this SAC team that has 1-2 wins less than ORL as still better because one team plays in the Western Conference and the other in the Eastern Conference.

AB doesn't hurt us, for the most part he stays in his own lane... Its the vet markelle that's hurting us if anything.... Its Joe Ingles that's hurting us, he gets beat and just stops playing on defense... Never seen someone do that and NOT get benched....then again we don't have a better alternative... But next season we shoulddsg2021 wrote:I personally don't think anyone is hurting us too much this season outside of maybe AB at times. The kid is a teenager still.

I think that’s it, right? I think Mosley is hoping Fultz can play himself into something useful in the playoffs and he’s getting a long leash. He’s probably anticipating playoff defenses to lock down Paolo, Franz and Suggs and having to call on a PG with a strong enough handle for it - which is either gonna be Fultz or Cole. Better for Fultz to shake off rust now than then?

Defensively that is ok but offensively that lineup is just terrible.

I don't think he trusts either atm. Black's not exactly making it an easy choice. It's obvious we're moving on from Fultz so I wish we'd rip the bandaid off but it is what it is.
Black last two months (14 and 11 MPG):
31/33/70
39/46/16
Fultz last two months (20 and 16 MPG):
41/16/75
45/0/100 (2 FT)
If there was a third option even playing decent he'd be playing him over both lol.
