Who would you rather have Melo or Kanter, he's probably going to get bought out today.

Neither can play defense but I think we need a center after giving up Zubac



Idk if they need a Center that bad though. They still got McGee and Chandler. And could potentially get some minutes for Wagner. They didn't trade for Muscala to not give him minutes either. I think it ends up being Melo because of the Lebron connection.

Aight so
lets be real.

Bullock was 2nd in the league in 3 PT shooting last year at 44.5%. This year so far he's at 38%. So he's a good shooter, and 67% of his shots come from 3. He ain't going backdoor, setting screens and going to the rim etc. He's gonna stand on the perimeter and make shots at a rate better than all of our current players.
As for Muscala. I've heard bad things about him from 76er fans. Clearly he can at least shoot the deep ball, 34% ain't really great but still, he has the ability and he makes one per game on average.
We could start Ball, Bullock, Ingram, Lebron, Muscala. We could also start Rondo, Bullock, Lebron, Kuzma, Muscala, and have Ingram run the 2nd unit.
It's gonna be interesting to see what we do, if Bullock even starts or if Muscala starts. One thing is certain. Zubac had more upside, but no outside shooting, and with Lebron, I' would argue it's better to play with a shooting lineup than a center down low.

Mike Muscala has the worst FG% on open looks in the whole league, that includes 3’s, at the rim and midranges

Loving your work Mr Johnson

Why’d LeBron just pull from 48 feet out on transition?
