Maybe time for us to play anyone not Biyombo at center? We are currently 25 points better without him playing, per 100. Give his minutes to Speights or something.

Eh.  Not sure he fits with our minute situation unless we legitimately think he can be a full time center.  

If so, he'd be an interesting piece 

Yes, I'd use him as a small ball center and really turn up the tempo with the 2nd unit. I believe he has some dog in him and getting traded should make him show his teeth some more . I remember on draft night how mad he was that he fell to the Lakers. 

 

Augustine, Simmons, Hezonja, Isaac, Randle 

They've all got something to prove and that could be a fun lineup to watch.

 

So much rests on the fact we can't really move Biyombo, if we do, our guy should win exec of the year haha

He doesn't have him going second.  He had him listed second in guys that would go higher in a redraft.

They’re all in for LeBron and PG this summer, don’t think anybody outside of Lonzo and Ingram are guaranteed to be there next year.

I think Kuzma's job is safer than Ingram's

EP hamstring is bothering him again... If you ask me you could see that on Wednesday too

.@OrlandoMagic coach Frank Vogel said that PG Elfrid Payton is dealing with a lot of soreness in his hamstring, but he’s “gonna give it a go” tonight vs. @Suns.

Hopefully he doesn't need to play big minutes.

Does Phoenix even have a PG anymore?

They are.  They want cap space for this summer.  Randle won't be there next year

And if they strike out, it would be delicious

Hamstrings always linger. It's either getting his muscles back in shape or he's gonna need more rest.
