Say what you want, this series is showing why long term, you do NOT trade Hunter or Cam. 

I’ve got no interest in trading them other than for exceptional value but I think if you took out our starter and top backup at any position you’d see this.  Of course we miss them.  But any trade is measured by who is coming back.

Okongwu come on!

Nate HAS taken Trae off the ball in spots.  Bogi has run the point on several occasions with Trae playing off the ball.

 

Bogi isn't a PG.  He's a secondary playmaker.

It was a nice season. Were never gonna get past the 76ers with a completely healthy Embiid. 

[Bonkers]

At least the Hawks not gonna get swept

And without Hunter

Okongwu gotta driving lesson tonight. 

[Lurker]

Bogi can be used as a ballhandler and even as a PG.

Gallo however, he might have brought it up but the assist totals doesn't say he can do that.

I wish I was as optimistic as some of the guys in here but I'm actually realistic lol

But no-one else is good at creating separation. Bogi doesn't have a first step and needs momentum off the ball. If Deandre was in the lineup I'd be all for it.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

I want to see Huerter in this starting lineup in Game 4.  Stop trying to beat Philly with defensive players who can't provide any offense.

We need scoring threats at all positions, because Philly's defense is just that good at times.

 

The only game we won is the game in which we shot lights out.  If that's the only way we can beat them, or even hang with them, so be it.

Gallo with 12,

What a miserable excuse for a third quarter. Man...

Yea, I don't think we take it with Hunter, but would have been a competitive series

We need a center who can guard Embiid but who can guard Embiid?

[Marvin24Williams]

Throw Bruno out there and see what he can do against Embiid 

[GameTime]

Horrible 3 quarters at home here

You post as much about being realistic as you do about the Hawks

Why the hell not? We know Okongwu can't do shit with him

Marc Gasol maybe. He did well in Toronto, he might be too old now though.

Mutombo in his prime would have had the length at least, but no way he could have bodied him.
