    Brooks is making a case for putting KPJ on the trading block.

    Amen. I was starting to think he was growing on me during the streak, but he's back doing the BS that irritates me. I can tell he bugs Craig.

    I like this lineup. Augustin has been horrible all game. Wood can't knock down FTs. Let's see how the others do with an opportunity.

    Wood doesnt move on the offensive end very well.

    It's like he lacks spacial awareness.

    I'm starting to think the two big lineup issue is mostly due to him not knowing where he needs to go to maintain good spacing and offensive flow.

    Theis has been good. Our centre's have mostly all been good except Wood can't hit free throws

    I don't hate Theis, he's a decent player. But he's not the kind of player you have to play against Adams, he's not a good matchup for that at all. Not big enough to match Adams' physicality, not good enough at shooting to pull Adams out to the perimeter, not able to beat him off the dribble (which would be a weakness of Adams that Wood/Sengun could take advantage of)

    I think we would still be better off using only Sengun/Wood in two-big lineups, but mainly only playing them one at a time

    Rockets should be fine with Wood and Sengun playing though because Wood can hit 3s at a pretty good clip. You're going to give up some on perimeter defense but if Silas wants to go big he can play both of them.

    Two bigs is fine it's just hard to find versatile bigs to make it worth it.

    Alright its very clear, he's very much like Jokic. The defense is going to need a lot of work but if he does,.....we really will have something here.
