Guessing that Metu blown layup is part of why he doesn't see minutes. That was a bone headed play, ala DA. You dunk those. He tries, and missed, a layup

I don’t think Book has attempted a shot this half. It’s crazy to see him play like this. He’s always been so aggressive.

It's a shame that Okogie is absolutely terrible on offense. The guy is a terrific defender but we play with just four players on offense with him on the court.

So, based on the provided probabilities and historical data, here are the expected percentages for each scenario:

All three players play together: Approximately 69.036%
Exactly two players play: Approximately 19.353%
Exactly one player plays: Approximately 12.183%
None of them play: Approximately 14.306%

that's what i wrote after game vs spurs.
if you rely on health to be good, you are gambling.

This is fun, right! Are we having fun yet?

Say what you want about injuries. This is not a good basketball team. Where's the scrappiness we were promised? Where's the defense?

Given the level of talent on paper, they're an embarrassment. Again. Always seems to end up that way no matter what they try.

I have never seen Book play like this. He’s not even looking to score.

He needs to play his proper position. This point book stuff is idiotic. It's crazy we have no PG on a roster that's supposed to be contending.

12 pts so far in the 2nd half, at this pace the game is already lost

This sporadic play, with Booker being extra passive, is incredibly frustrating. As has been mentioned ad nauseum, WE NEED A POINT GUARD. Beal, if he ever bothers to return, isn't a PG and won't be any better at being a distributor than Booker.

It’s crazy how better we are when Okogie and KBD are on the bench. You trap Booker and it will lead to an open 3 from a capable shooter. Frank Vogel has been awful.

Yea unfortunately his NBA career is extremely limited. He'll have roles due to his D, but when teams expose him like this, he's worthless and needs to be benched. It's really a shame because if he could make his shots semi consistently, he'd be a midlevel, or better, player

This is not the nly factor.
I am not sold at all on Vogel. I have only seen one advantage in comparison to Monty. He calls time outs when he has to.

I've not been sold on Vogel at any point and knew he wouldn't move the needle any further than Williams.
