But yeah, a Hunter/Bridges 3/4 duo would've been able to switch everything. That was my goal. Yeah I think my defense will be nice and offensively the 3s will fly.

THE DUKE Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) Now that we're getting deep into the bench, I'm looking for some particular roles. Quickley can be a quick scoring boost off the bench, and he's been coming on more and more as the season has progressed. Over his last 7, he's averaging 18 ppg from a bench role, which is exactly what I need. Quickley can be a SG or a 3rd PG if I need it. Trae Young / Patrick Beverly Victor Oladipo / Immanuel Quickley Kawhi Leonard / Harrison Barnes Julius Randle Clint Capela / Jonas Valanciunas Edited March 23, 2021 by THE DUKE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Knicks took him in the 1st round this year, I was like WTF are they doing. But it has worked out pretty well for them. He has actually been much better than Obi Toppin.

Some guys just know how to put the ball in the bucket better than most. Seems like Quickley is one of those guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Happy to land Holiday here, hitting almost 3 three's per game at a 40% clip and near the top of the league for wings in both defensive rating and defensive win shares this year.

He was supposed to be Porzingis on offense and Gobert on defense. Looking at recent Magic draft history and man it's pretty bad. 2013 - Victor Oladipo (#2 overall) 2014 - Aaron Gordon (#4 overall) 2015 - Mario Hezonja (#5 overall) 2016 - Domantas Sabonis (#11 overall) - Traded for Serge Ibaka (lol) 2017 - Jonathan Isaac (#6 overall) 2018 - Mo Bamba (#6 overall) 2019 - Chuma Okeke (#16 overall) 2020 - Cole Anthony (#15 overall) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dipo was my number one in 2013. in 2014 Exum was 1 and Gordon was my 2. 15 I wanted Mario. 16 i don't think igaf. 17 i wanted DSJ or Mitchell. 18 Bamba was my #1 prospect. 19' idaf. 20 i wanted cole. they've done pretty much i wanted every year lmao. honestly they've been super unlucky in the lotto tho too. missed out on a few easy-call superstars by one pick.

I never liked Aaron Gordon as a prospect, saw him as too much of a tweener. I was so excited for Dante Exum when we drafted him, I'll never forget Chad Ford saying he was the closest thing to a young Kobe he had ever seen. I think he meant Coby Karl.
