orlandoholic 134 Report post Posted June 23, 2023 4 minutes ago, Jay Magic said: should be fun games against talented teams. Wish we would have faced Houston again. Last year was fun.. I don’t expect Black to have a great summer league. Summer league is too wild for players that like to play organized bball. I remember Franz looking horrible in summer league and how fans hit the panic button.. Howard could get some buckets though (if he’s healthy) Also i expect them to play most games as they were said to earn their minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Following year or so we make decisions just to end making picks or sign FA’s (our resign our own) that forces us to evaluate again. Seems like Weham likes creating issues so they can solve them.

TrueBlueDrew 75 Report post Posted June 23, 2023 Right now we're sitting a really interesting make up of a team: PG - Anthony - 23 - 6'3 (Team Option) PG - Fultz - 25 - 6'4 (Expiring) SG - Harris - 28 - 6'4 (Expiring) G - MCW - 31 - 6'5 (Team Option) SF - Schofield - 26 - 6'5 (Team Option) SG - Suggs - 22 - 6'5 (Team Option) G - Black - 19 - 6'7 G - Houston - 20 - 6'8 G - Jett - 19 - 6'8 PF - Okeke - 24 - 6'8 (Team Option) PF - Paolo - 20 - 6'10 C - WCJ - 24 - 6'10 PF - Isaac - 25 - 6'10 SF - Franz - 21 - 6'10 (Team Option) C - Goga - 23 - 6'11 (Team Option) C - Mo - 26 - 6'11 (Expiring) C - Bol - 23 - 7'2 (Expiring) Now... according to what I'm seeing online (and some of you will need to confirm this in case I'm reading it wrong): We're already exercised our team options for Suggs, Franz, Cole, Okeke, Goga, MCW - still haven't been exercised. Mo Wagner needs a new contract, Gary Harris and Bol Bol's aren't guaranteed. Fultz is partially guaranteed. That means a lot of moving pieces can still happen with this team. I think Franz/Paolo/WCJ is what we're building around currently. Fultz seems to continue to improve, I guess we're all still waiting for that "oh yeah, that's why he was the #1 overall" season to happen. I think we need a SOLID SG (like Dame? haha) and then shooters on the bench and I'll be happy. I'm ready to move on from Cole and Okeke. I'm willing to be patient with Suggs at least for one more season. I want to give Bol Bol a spot because he had moments of electricity and I think he creates unique matchup problems...plus watching Bol vs Victor would be fun. All that to say... this offseason is not done yet. *Straps in* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
