[All Eyes On Me]

Welcome back from the break! Starting 5 for the good guys Cole/KCP/Franz/P5/WCJ. Let’s go get a W!

Still don't understand why we insist on starting Cole as PG with Franz+Paolo available.

Think it comes down to spacing. We’ve tried this lineup with AB instead of Cole and it was terrible because nobody respects Anthony Black as a jump shooter. Also, AB was playing much more aggressive when he was with the 2nd unit.

But we usually have Suggs there working out well with them, because he's a way better defender than Cole. Cole is shooting 32% from 3, not exactly red hot either...

Also, Franz and Paolo are players over the 30% of usage rate, levels that are usually reserved to super-star,  while Cole is way better on the bench as a scorer, playing with only one of them.

I think the issue is Suggs being out more than who starts at the 1 between Cole and AB. Bigger issue than that is KCP forgetting how to shoot, maybe he fixed that problem during the break. Always fun to throw commentary back and forth, Luke!

Wendell and KCP are garbage 

[All Eyes On Me]

Stop fouling! 4 lazy fouls in 3 minutes 

[All Eyes On Me]

Paolo and Franz being too passive

WCJ trying to prove me wrong, but goddam, every single game KCP somehow gets worse

[All Eyes On Me]

This is horrendous 

[zollman]

Steaming pile so far..

[OnlyFranz]

Back from the break and we still look the same. If Weltman ever gets Franz and Paolo some NBA caliber help we may see a championship in our lifetime. I just don’t understand what people were expecting would happen when we’ve had enough of a sample size to know we need new players on this roster in the worst way possible.
