That's where I'm at with it too
We were still figuring things out
Jimmy and Tobi getting time at PG
Jimmy with the ball in his hands to close out
I honestly don't think this team played at it's full potential due to lack of on the court time as a whole unit
The missed defensive assignments were something that I believe irons itself out with experience
Love Jimmy, absolutely think he fits the city to a T
Nobody in Philly would blink an eye if they maxed him
Buckets is the priority
No, he's not worth 5/190 or even 4/150
He misses games regularly; load management. Did Jimmy invent general body soreness as a legit reason to sit? Don't think I've heard that anywhere else
Unfortunately, we have the money, this ownership group is anxious to win now, and Jimmy is the piece that makes this work IMO
Would not be surprised at all if they maxed him the second it was allowed
I would rather that, than sit through a summer of reports from Jimmy's Johnny Be Good campus tours
Where I think this gets interesting is Brand as GM
He likes to make moves
We could easily bring back errybody
But looking over the list of available FAs
There is room for improvement
I don't know what a max for Tobi is, but he's also worth it
We need a 50/40/90 guy, as does errybody at the 4
I think both Morris twins are available, Faried, Milsap, etc...
I keep Scott, add depth at that position
Same for the 2 guard spot
Ennis should have been starting
JJ should come off the bench
and there's alot of players available
Matthews, Ariza, Hood, Ross...
BB should have been fired after Fultz was sent packing
Reports at that time credited the pick to him and his enthusiasm
The team's inability to execute in the half court and end of clock/period situations never got resolved
We're a dogg on the road
The plea cops of flipping the roster 3Xs might save him
-1W reg season and +2W postseason, really feels like a push
And when you assemble a roster with that much talent, I can't rationalize bringing back the HC for what feels like a waste of a season with no tangible progress
But he's also losing his assistants
Might as well make the change, I just don't see it happening
Run It Back.
