**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[drewsone]

Staggering seems to be an issue with many coaches in the league. Feel like it seems like common sense to us fans that it should be done.

like i remember when HOU was staggering CP and Harden and it was working REALLY well for them lol

this guy Luke will have 6 minute line up stretches where there is no BI, Bron, or Kuz
like you gotta have at least one of them in man

but yeah BI def plays better when Bron not in cuz he can do his thing

When bron is in you need a bit more spacing and he cant do that.. but he Bron does find him for mid range shots off cuts sometimes

 

[N41D]

Luke has to learn to stagger them.. idk how hard that is but hey im not an NBA coach

I mean... What are you really supposed to do? Especially if they both start and play 35 minutes a night?

You've got about a 10 minute window where Bron's not on the court - probably in 2-3 4 minute windows on any given night.

BI's either your 6th man - which may not be a bad idea if you're just really looking to stagger them... Or he needs to get better at meshing and fitting into the flow.

 

[everysingletime]

Lol they are likely playing Ingram with Lebron so Lebron doesn't have to defend

 

[xxpizzo]

Yup Magic is officially a weirdo for bringing this up from over a month ago. He knew what he was trying to do

 

[buc em]

Ben Simmons will hit a three tomorrow vs the Celtics for my birthday

 

[addict4sneakers]

Bud does a good job staggering Giannis with other guys.

He’s coming out at the 6 minute mark regardless

 

[sohi 23]

It was an offhand comment at an interview before a nationally televised 76ers/Lakers game but I agree he didn’t need to bring that up now. Bad optics even though it’s the first time he’s spoken to the media since the beginning of the year.

Magic

 

[pums]

Let him talk to magic if he wants but let a guy from the sixers staff go with him

I wouldnt have an issue with it if Magic wasn't actually apart of the Lakers officially. If Ben really wants tips, Brand has to be there

 

[KHUFU]

Why do the analysts always preface how great of a coach Brad Stevens is, before talking about the issues with the Celtics? If he were so great, with that talent, why aren't those issues his fault?

 

[Bert.]

To this day I still wonder how Kawhi didn’t get fined for refusing to play after being cleared.

team doctors cleared him but independnt doctor didn't? I coulda sworn that was the issue

 

[amitt5504]

No Kyrie tomorrow

 

[VARNELL HILL]

It's inevitable

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Let him talk to magic if he wants but let a guy from the sixers staff go with him

Why not Rich Paul?

 

[shotsrangout]

If philly got an actual PG that could shoot they would be better. Let him go to the lakers and pick up Felton to play point

 

[Vintage versace]

How the hell is rozier or kyrie gonna stay on the court with these sixer lineups

doesnt seem like BI wants to change his game. he been pretty static since coming in

his little mid range is pretty solid tho but he just pounds the ball too much imo

 

[QU!K]

Ben doesn’t even need to shoot a 3 , just needs to pull up from top of the key

It would open his game up a lot more

 

[addict4sneakers]

The sooner we literally and figuratively get Ben out the paint, the sooner Embiid wins multiple MVPs

 

[alchemist iq]

Ben Simmons playoffs ready....

 

[kevlar]

The expectations of him being a high volume scorer is hurting his development

 

[nikekid6]

lakers some dirty mo fo's

 

[don ramon]

lin and kawhi look out

Nah chill he definitely needs to shoot threes. He’s already been shooting the midrange.

lin and kawhi look out

One of these things is not like the other
