My thoughts are- I understand he's basically tanking the season, we don't have KP so he's ok jus developing the kids and losing, its a difficult spot for him. However I still have to question a few things, we still need to have somewhat of an attractive destination to free agents and, winning some games actually will help development more than anything so in that respect demoting Kanter to the bench I just don't get it. Unless he has basically said he isn't part of the future, but I think Kanter is a very useful guy to have around long term as a walking double double. Don't get me wrong, of all the young kids to show promise it is Mitchell Robinson, but I really think Robinson needs to come off the bench as it does no one any good for him to play 9 mins and have 5 fouls.
Ntilikina, I understand he's basically putting him in 5 different positions because he is of no use offensively, but sooner or later you have to focus on a position for him, my ideal position for him is on the trade block immediately quite honestly, I've seen more than enough of him and his awful offensive game, but I see he is trying to see what we have with him, but one week he's a small forward then he's starting the point, at one point last night Robinson picked up a foul and he had him trying to defend Vucinic in the 4th and he got pulverised, and we got destroyed on the glass with Kanter on the bench.
Whats with Trey Burke? He starts him day 1, then he's completely abandoned One week he's DNP'd then he's getting 30 mins scoring 30 points...his use of him makes no sense. He's one of the only guys on the entire roster that can hit a jumper and make his own shot apart from Tim Hardaway and Trier.
Knox also looks rawer than most of our unheralded kids quite honestly.
There really needs to be consistent rotations, because quite honestly they are all over the place, and guys look confused, about confused as I am watching these starting lineups.
I give a lot of credit to Tim H, and Kanter who have done everything asked of them, but there is such a lack of talent on this roster its quite striking. Especially when you look at almost every other team in the league apart from the Hawks, we just have such little top level talent. I also don't know about anyone else, but I can't look at Ntilikina without getting sick thinking Mitchell should be here if not for Phil
Anyway I digress, Fiz needs to get his rotation in order now because this is not working. Get some consistency, and we might play consistently because the name of the game is to look like a solid franchise for free agency while still getting a high pick.
