Yeah Phil is a very underwhelming player, the only things he does that well are things that don't show up in the box score and that you don't notice on a normal basis. I'd say the drawn charges are the only thing that's easy to notice and since his attempts to draw them can be egregious sometimes, it has become almost a joke at this point. The "Philly Phlop" is what we call it in my game watching group, but he is a very good body defender. The kind of defender who keeps a talented big from scoring in the paint, but not with a block or steal, just with keeping his body in the way and not letting the player get the shot they want. He did so much of that in the 2014 championship run that I really started to appreciate him more.
However, I wont be that surprised if Enoch earns a lot of minutes, because really all he needs to do that is be picking up on the kind of things Nolan does right. It sure seems like he's far more polished in terms of his body and his offense than Phil has ever been, and basically Ollie will need different things at different times. I wouldn't be surprised if Nolan and Enoch play together a fair amount. Have Nolan there as the rock defensively, and Enoch there in case there's an open look under the hoop, because we've seen how Philly puts those up sometimes.
Bottom line is Nolan and Enoch are definitely going to be very different players, and that's a great thing. This team has a little of everything, and I think our coaching staff really knows what to do with a bench that looks like a Swiss army knife, I cant wait for this season to kick off
