JJZFL 619 Report post Posted December 2, 2019 4 minutes ago, All Eyes On Me said: DJ is the worst player on the team right now. Glad to see TRoss is working his way out of the slump by attacking and not just jacking up 3s. Fultz and Isaac are gonna be special. Fournier is currently our best player. Ugly win, but a win is a win. On to Washington Well said. The Washington game will be interesting. They have the worst defense in the league and we have the worst offense. How does that play out?

We're going to lose because our defense isn't going to be good enough to shut them down and our offense goes though wild swings of effectiveness and can't maintain scoring. They're weak at the rim but fultz is the only guy who can exploit that and it's not like he's getting 20 shots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully we win, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Feel like we lose both the Wizards and Suns back to back, which sucks because they should both be winnable games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted December 2, 2019 I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention how Clifford almost (and probably should have) costed us the game tonight. A few foolish decisions in a row. Rushing your last timeout after JI wrangles that rebound, let him get fouled! And then after the timeout, bench Markelle, our best inbounder for AG who turns it over on the inbound. He’s lucky Burks missed that 3 or he’d be getting rightfully torn in to. He’s starting to make a few alarming things a habit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s starting to make a few alarming things a habit. Fultz isn't our best inbounder, Gordon is. I think there's probably an argument that fultz should have been in to receive the ball because he can get open but that 5 second call wasn't on Gordon it's on everyone else for not getting separation. And I get criticising the timeout but we did score the deciding bucket on the following play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
~O~ 565 Report post Posted December 2, 2019 Didn't watch but glad they won. Soon we'll be able to trade Isaac and Fultz for Beal. *Wait for it* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was awful tonight, bad enough to get benched and then you bring him back in for the most important play of the game? I guess you’re right though, the main mistake was probably bringing DJ in for Fultz cause he just sat in the corner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is false. The 5 second violation happened right after the timeout I was referring to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just watched it again. 6.3 seconds left, 98-96 game, Alec Burks misses the 2nd free throw, Isaac gets the rebound and Clifford immediately calls a timeout. Resets with Gordon and DJ in for Fultz and Birch and a 5 second inbound violation occurs. Fournier’s layup comes at 9.3 seconds, also after a timeout, but not the one I’m referring to.
