What's new

Ingles starting tonight

Keeping Joe in the starting lineup is definitely the right move. Lets hope Quin sticks with it the rest of the season.
 
Time to keep Ingles in the starting lineup. Hopefully they learned their lesson.
 
I know stats aren't the end all be all, but you'd think a freak athlete like Gordon with a reputation as a good defender would average more than .7spg and .6bpg since the start of last year
He just developed Griffinitis. Honestly I would try something like Exum for Gordon to see if the Magic would bite. I think both teams are simply getting frustrated at this point. And Dante’s contract is a bit more team friendly whereas Gordon is a better overall player that fits a need on this team.

He takes shot opportunities away from opposing teams. Which is way more valuable than a block shot.

And many players have given up challenging him all together.

Gordon is kinda like Draymond to me... much worse on defense but better on offense as a scorer... I think he has to be used correctly and have the right players around him to unlock his super glue guy potential. In the wrong role I think he will be considered a mild disappointment.

I don't think he is as good as most consider him to be and if I was Orlando I'd see if I could get a good deal on him. I think Isaac is a better player and in the role that would work best for Gordon.
 
If Ingles find his shots that would certainly open a lot of things up

Not sure if you've been watching recently but he's found his shot. He's shooting 49% and 44.5% from 3 over the last 10 games.
