Nobody on the bench is worth their spot. Starters play the second highest minutes in the league. Bench is rated the worst in the league. And its expensive.
I think Brooks might finally be figuring out that Morris is not a good starter. Team should get ready for a tantrum from him soon out of frustration.
36. "Otto's been great but also is a future issue." In response to Reply # 31
Because GMs are already whispering that he might be a max guy and I just don't see a team being anything more than an 8th seed contender with Beal and Otto maxed out and Wall looking for an extension in the near future.
Although, my guess is that Wall is gone once he hits FA.

39. "Dude led the league in 3-point shooting for a month" In response to Reply # 38
Come on. I'm not saying that makes him a better shooter than Lavine (I would agree that he's not), but saying it's not his skillset is, oh, I don't know, willfully ignorant.
I agree with Shells. Those two should take faster, better shots instead of trying to explore since neither is a great ballhandler (and Wiggins is sort of a really bad one). They also might have just picked a bad offensive coach for this team; might need a great assistant to save him.
43. "He led because he took the right shots" In response to Reply # 39
If Wiggins tried to catch and shoot more, his percentages would likely plummet.
The focus on Wiggins's offense is also an issue. His defense was supposed to be ahead of his offense and his defense is pretty bad right now.
Wiggins should be making his name on defense while he improves his shot and, more importantly, his handle. He should be following the path of Jimmy Butler and Avery Bradley.
LaVine should actually be a boon to Wiggins. Take some of the scoring off of his plate.

44. "Why does anyone expect anything from Rondo?" In response to Reply # 32
He's proven to be a flashy but ultimately net negative player over the past handful of years. A floor general who you should probably take off the court in clutch situations. A guy whose punted defense for so long that no matter what he does on defense, he's still a net negative overall.
Rondo's a recognizable name but he's a below average PG.

excellent rondo game.
great wade facilitating and crafty vet pump-fakery.
jim found ways to contribute on an off shooting night.
taj is taj. consistent. rolo's early buckets set the tone. felicio needs to play every night.
26 mcdermott minutes + canaan finally being worked out of the rotation = fist pumping baby gif
