Honest question: Would we consider intentionally fouling Simmons early second half to disrupt their rhythm? Put in the scrubs to foul.
With no Hunter and our current cold streak it’s hard to see how we turn this game around. We need Trae and Bogie to wake back up.
Capella being completely neutralized by Embiid on both ends is killing us. They just have more talent than us. It was a good run but we aren’t winning a series against any good teams starting Soloman Hill. not only do we need Hunter back, but we need him to make a leap. He shows flashes of being an elite 2 way player. He just has to stay healthy and gain more confidence. I’m hoping he works on his game as hard in the off-season as Trae does.
Health is obviously number 1 OO and the young wings taking a jump is paramount. I have stanned JC for 4 years. I want to keep him Bc having a 40% 3 point shooter at the 4 is perfect to have next to Trae. It’s frustrating that we don’t run anything through him ever. He’s not a creator, but I wish he could have the second O run through him in stints. I’m fascinated to see what he gets. I imagine we will match. Bogi proves how dumb it is to lose an asset for nothing
John Collins and Capela missing at the rim Trae and his injured shoulder arent even close Things are going well
not digging Nates adjustments or lack thereof but get Hunter and Reddish healthy. Continue to grow their games. Find someone wanting Collins on a sign and trade. Use cap space on a better piece. Use your success/promise to build a better bench.
Looks like we have given up. No energy, nobody getting back on D. Awful shooting. No adjustments on Embiid
Well it was a good season. Just outclassed without any wings against the number one seed. Let’s hope we make the right adjustments around the margin in the offseason.
I mean, everything is ancillary to this. If Hunter and Reddish are healthy and progress, we can tell Simmons and Harris to fuck their own couch. Huerter and Bogie can run off screens and cut, and you don’t have to decide which bad decision to make with Collins. Health will make the bench better. So will OO backup PG could stand an upgrade.
