Why? He can get hot sure but he makes the worst boneheaded decisions with the ball. This would be going in the wrong direction.

Appreciate it. That makes some sense. The whole Trey Murphy thing. I mean he’s good but does he really solve our offensive issue? Just doesn’t seem smart with all that money involved.

I can’t see any of the stuff some of yall are sharing.

Any deal for Garland will almost always include Suggs. It’s why I wouldn’t do it. I do not want to see Suggs 4 times a year along side DM.

I know. I’m just saying with our need to get offense Reaves would have to be the focal point

A deal with LA would have to include Reaves.

It’s a disaster because Weltman who finally changes his tune would literally be doing what he always does. Finding old guys near the end of their careers thinking it solves the issue while having to address it again down the road. I don’t have an issue with CJ at 34 who’s on a decent contract while he find other options to get better. I have an issue of trading assets for a CJ who’s 34 making 30 million and calling it a day thinking “we’re set now guys!’

He is 34 years old making 30 million a year. Have you watched a game? He’s slowed down a lot. This isn’t CJ from Portland days. This would be a disaster of a move if this is answer to our backcourt issues.

I wouldn’t doubt it. It’s what I expect from this FO .

It’s not a label. It’s a skill. The data says our issues are a lot bigger than shooting. We are one of the worst teams to get good shots and two players who have the highest usage rate amongst most of the NBA are contributing to it. As good as they are, they are not Luka. Paolo knows this. It’s why he has publicly asked for a PG.

I just don’t know if the options are there. Suggs is not a PG and most of the other options without possibly including him aren’t as well.

That’s why I brought it up. New CBA makes it almost impossible to have Paolo/Franz/Suggs with Garland. If we want a big name, we’re going to more than likely have to give up on the big 3.

Would yall trade Suggs for Garland?

Ah my fault. Coby has surged last season or 2. He’s been a huge bright spot. I don’t know if I see them trading him either but I don’t know much about Chicago’s situation.

I don’t see them trading White. They saw despite how good they are with a PG who can shoot, make plays and defend. They’ll find a way to unload Jrue. I like Simons but I don’t know if he solves our issues on offense. Definitely spreads the floor but we need some play making there too. Someone who set the tone, set up plays for Paolo/Franz.

This team desperately needs a starting caliber PG.

That would be turrible

We don’t need Brown. We need a PG. A good one.

Yeah but then what’s the backcourt look like? Suggs/Reaves? I mean it’s better but neither is a PG. I know we don’t NEED a ball dominant PG but you do want someone who can make plays if need to be. It’s why I kinda like Simons. Played quite a bit of PG and is very good in PnR.

This is going to be tricky off season

Anyone seeing this Paul Porter crap?

Anfernee Simons would’ve been the perfect deadline get.

Yeah in starting to think that’s the case. Didn’t shoot 3’s but made the smart pass, effort on defense was there, been through a lot personally, took good high percentage shots at the basket…

I think we lost some of that when we lost Ingles and to some degree Fultz despite his issues. We are developing our two stars, AB, Goga, Cole, Jett etc etc. We haven’t added anything to boost us in any of our weaknesses.

Dude has been out 23 games and still is probably recovering on top of being double and triple teamed more than any other player in the league. This FO has been too passive and all those family fun vibes only last so long. 8 years we have watched season by season this offense trend in the wrong direction. Meanwhile two deadlines this FO has done nothing to address it. We haven’t had a decent PG since what, Jameer?! Fultz was ok but health and not wanting to shoot 3’s hurt us most games. What does good ol Wepark do last off season, reach for Jett and sign 31 year old KCP.
