At some point doc has to realize kork is nothing more than a 11-12th man on a roster. He shouldn’t be in the rotation. The minutes joe gets now will only help him later in the year and the future.

HazletonEagle Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Kork has about 1 game per month where he shoots an OK percentage to save his overall 3% on the season. All those other games- trash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 halftime. Simmons has 4 points, 0 assists, and 0 rebounds. aaaand 0 steals. and 0 blocks. is he injured? only played 7 minutes. Regardless, at this point, he should be benched till he is traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giveemtheboot Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Ben was playing aggressive and caught a couple cheap fouls. Doc has been conservative with his minutes as a result. He played well when he was in. We’d have the lead at this point if it weren’t for dwights first 5 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 So.... heres a somewhat new argument for trading Simmons and its not really bashing him. Its about the construct of the team in general.-- We cant be this reliant on Embiid. Its not like we have lost to elite teams when hes missed. Without him we are so bad we lose to some of the worst teams. That is not ok. You need to turn Ben in to a couple above average players. LaVine, +, or something similar. Really need to turn him for a package consisting of at minimum, a scorer, and an upgrade over Green. Without Embiid we still wouldnt beat the elite teams. But it would give us a better chance to still win games against the rest which is absolutely necessary when competing for seeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The box score is making me think Bradley might deserve to supplant Howard. If not now, probably by the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebound and rebound hes been underwhelming in every facet of his on court role in at least the last 3 games, maybe more. Bradly has as many OFFENSIVE rebounds as Howard has total rebounds in this game. And its not the first impressive OREB game for Bradley. He really seems to be a beast on the boards. Maybe its a move you cant make for team morale, because Howard has always been immature and probably wouldnt handle it well, although KOQ and Amir still did their off court duties without receiving playing time. The on court energy Howard showed in the beginning of the season is just not there lately. And 5 points/4 rebounds is not what we expected on nights where he filled in for Embiid. I am afraid we would have been better off with Pelle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
