Well from Coach we know the bigs couldn't handle it so he had PJ guard him. Only thing is PJ didn't slow him down at all either.

I only see one option. A lineup of Bledsoe, Knight, Price, Archie and Booker.

As stupid as this sounds, if you replace Archie with PJ, I can see us actually playing that lineup. :(

Markieff just checks in 5:50 left in the 1st. They feed to him in the post, he backs down, hooks his man and gets called for an offensive foul.

Warren also in the game for Tucker, who's just useless offensively. I like Leuer and he had a great reverse layup in transition but I feel like he's a super sub.

Len's been really active on the boards so far, and a nice looking jumper there

Alex Len should be the starting C regardless of Chandlers health.

Morris has been pretty good on D, but at the other end he shoots every time he touches the ball.

He's got 5 games worth of shots to make up.

The number of people and times I've seen people post that they'd be willing to trade Len around here. He's the best thing we've got going and had the brightest future of anyone on this roster. He's the best thing I consistently see on the court these days.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton
