Hate to bring up old shyt but this was the Atlanta blueprint on how to stop us last year. Essentially it was don’t let Randle beat you and make him see ghost, plus RJ is only left handed. Those Atl nikkas scouted the shyt out of us

I do suspect Rj developed his right hand in the off-season.

Nah it’s ok, the team took care of some of these issues. They moved on from that back court because those issues you couldn’t fix. RJ hopefully improves, and better guard play (and hopefully coaching) means Randle won’t be the only point on the floor. Last but not least Noel hopefully will be backing up Mitch next playoffs.

It’s really telling they only mentioned starters too since that meant they expected Thibs to ride those 5 heavy

He has been doing that

The good thing is that we have competent staff that also noticed these deficiencies and made adjustments.

Most of this has been addressed just up to RJ and Jules to evolve

Baby Luca didn’t make it

Guys been injured this whole time. Best ability is availability

Rose being forced to start cause of bumbass Payton hurt our second unit. Hopefully Kemba can hold up because we have a legitimately deep team in the league again. That's also why Kemba is starting Thibs wants that Rose, IQ, Burks and Obi tandem together. Noel or Simms can hold down the 5.

Vildoza did nothing to impress between the Olympics, the summer league and practice.

Agreed. Thibs definitely relies on a 3 guard second unit and if Obi shows up even better.

Knox and Grimes could become situational 3 Pt shooting as well. Which could also work when teams play zone. I hope some sort of wrinkle is added for them as well.

Grimes is better than Knox he's going to take all his minutes

What minutes does Knox have to take?

Our point guard position is solid. We also got a gem with Duece.

Knox playing 3rd behind Toppin. He better show out or else.

I don't see Grimes getting many minutes either. They got Fournier, IQ, Burk so maybe behind RJ at 3.

 

[Ironman]

What minutes does Knox have to take?

Knox isn't getting anything Thibs likes Grimes and McBride they're getting those and end of quarter minutes most likely.
