Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted January 1, 2018 I’m still fine with the Isaac pick, as long as he gets healthy. Love his versatility and upside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure he’s a good case study for your argument against Isaac. in terms of PER? there's only like 10 rookies with a better than 15 PER. Below average in what sense.

Look at all of his shooting percentages. Dude has upside but is not close to league average as a starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J-Mac 80 Report post Posted January 1, 2018 I was looking at a video of when we drafted Gordon. And the comments made me laugh. "Magic are dumb they should've got randle/exum". Or "we don't need another defender, now who's gonna score". So I'm ok with Isaac hopefully he turns out the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ML6 520 Report post Posted January 2, 2018 (Young/Doncic/Sexton)/Fournier/Ross/Gordon/Biyombo actually seems like a pretty offensively and defensively balanced lineup. Those PGs just bring so much to the table, and Biyombo has stabilized the defense fairly well in his extended minutes thus far. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And EP/3&D FA/Simmons/Isaac/Vuc isn't a bad bench either if we can't find takers for EP & Vuc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If tasked with coming off the bench again, I have no doubt he would throw a fit as he has in the past. For someone who talks so much about playing the right way, sacrificing for the team, only caring about winning, etc., Vooch sure doesn't take well to the idea of not starting. Which is a big shame for someone so well suited to that role. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
