I genuinely am curious. I can totally understand why our offense is dogshit but I’m struggling from a personnel standpoint to understand how a team with Ausar/Stew/Duren (in part) in the front court can be such dog shit when a Wagner/Banchero/WCJ-Goga or Brooks/Jabari/Sengun can be top 5 defensively
I’m obviously not expecting a top 5 defense - but like what am I watching ? If anyone had stats or data they could point to I’d be very curious, thank you
Well our #1 pick aint playing like he’s head and shoulders above everyone else like we expect a #1 pick to be and if your #1 dude ain’t better than just an above average player, well, your team ain’t gonna be anything special. Compound that with a team full of non shooters (including your #1 pick) than your just about dead least in standings.
dude i asked about defense. Orlando’s offense sucks ass too, and it’s not like Paolo is the reason their defense is singing.
If you replaced Cade with Paolo offensively the Magic would be just as they are now
