I think he had like a 60-point game in the cup last year that probably inflates it quite a bit

Or Tuarean Prince

Trae hasn’t been Trae for like 3 years atp while Fox is still ascending

Wasn’t he pretty much saying “trade me to the Spurs and only the Spurs?” You guys were in a tough spot

We will end up with Kuzma, Poole, and three 2nd rounders all who don’t pan out. Can’t wait

Ellis is absolutely gonna shit on us while on the Bucks. Our 10yr lose streak vs them will begin anew.

Ah cool so players should be at the mercy of their GM like when Luka got traded.

On the flip side….Deni might be the best contract in the entire league.

Yall got an all star in that deni kid. Straight robbed the wiz

I assume just a shooting slump on offense but he’s so young what happened to his defense?

lol

Watch the games for once

Even then I would like to see the lineup of fox castle harper that people claimed would never work.

If we have everyone else healthy we’d be fine. Or, even if we did lose, the young guys would get invaluable reps.

But yay, Fox scored a bunch on terrible shots that happened to go in this game?

If his role is to be pesky on defense and a safety valve on offense I’ll take it

our play-in game vs the Pelicans a few years ago bought Devin some big brownie points from me

dude was the only person who showed up that game and was knocking down some killer threes

i just wish he wasn’t such an inconsistent player and his finishing game is underrated but he basically never attempts to score under/around the rim.

Crazy part is he posts in the France sub

Can’t a man enjoy himself a bit and glaze his leading guard? Of course Tony is my GOAT PG.

Yeah and as it stands, there are 96 mins at the guard spot to go around, so you can give all three guys 30+ and there’s your full guard rotation. Harper hasn’t looked like he has the motor for 30 minutes right now so it’s a ways away from even being remotely a problem yet.

In the intervening time you see if you can improve the wing rotation, PF in particular is the biggest question mark. Barnes is showing us the ideal template basically but he’s getting on in years, let’s try to see if we can find a guy like him but a bit better defensively in the draft. It’ll be a year or two before we know if Carter Bryant is an NBA player. The only guy who plays at the 3 or 4 in the team I’m confident in for 30+ minutes of a playoff game right now is Devin Vassell.

Basically, there’s a 2-3 season runway to see if the front office can make the right moves in the draft or on the margins in free agency to improve the roster on the wings. If they fail to do that, then you consider cashing in a premium asset like Castle or Fox to boost the wing rotation. It’s as simple as that for me. If you can always have at least two and usually three of Fox, Harper, Wemby & Castle on the court, and you have shutdown defensive wings who are hitting their shots, that team is a contender very soon. If the wing rotation stays meh it’ll be exposed in the playoffs.
