Issa Isn't Ready for PT

[[email protected]]

We can't afford to play Issa in prime time. Maybe for a few mins. if someone is in foul trouble, or if someone needs a 1-2 min. blow. That's it.

He has no court sense, shot selection isn't there, he's tall … that's all (no bulk) and can't rebound. In short he adds little to the team (I believe he's trying, but just doesn't have "it").

Pike should play Mathis, McConnell, Harper, Baker and Johnson. Rotate, Kiss/ Doorson until EO comes back (if at all?).

Very frustrated.

Sorry. I’ve given him every benefit of the doubt, but Issa is simply not good enough. No reason, including his slipping defense, to have him on the court. None .

The "it" factor was never there.

Who on this team has it? Step back 3 Geo?

As a starting point: Mathis has "IT".

Hoping Harper get's "It" and it spreads like an epidemic to Johnson, Kiss and DEFINITELY Baker (he's been disappearing / disappointing).

As I have said many times before Issa's PT is a function of other players not ready.

Mathis doesn’t have “IT”. He could in the future.

Does Harper seems agonizingly slow and unathletic to anyone else. He lumbers everywhere and has no touch on his shot. I can't see him being a contributor even as he matures.

Absolutely, Mathis has "it"....though it's recent / relative!

I though Thiam was going to develop nicely this off season. He showed some signs at the end of last year with some post ups on smaller defenders and drives into the lane. He's regressed. You have to put that on the coaches
