He's unfortunately on a much shorter leash then EFournier or JSimmons.... He's got potential if played properly. I'd like to see him actually take shots without feeling guilty.

Nobody wants to take a shot..... Period. Everyone passes out of somewhat uncomfortable situations. Nobody wants to take the scoring reigns.... I wish any of our guys would do that.

Where we're at now this season. I'd gladly trade Fournier and whoever and develop the AG/Mario duo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I will love to see that I am not getting my hopes too high. All that Mario really did today was to increase his trade value. I just dont see this Organization keeping him as long as Vogel is our coach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see VUC and Fournier going out the door first. They both are in a contract friendly position for another team to take. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted December 17, 2017 I still don't understand the Fournier hate. Reorganize the fga distribution and we're fine. It was rarely ever about Fournier taking a shot. It was Fournier running a two man game with vucevic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We really need to get rid of Vuc and Payton. Payton can be a good backup PG, but his skill set prevents him from being a good starting PG in my opinion. Vuc might be able to be a starter on a good team that can cover his flaws, but we don't have that. Starting Vuc and Payton together just doesn't work, we've more than proven that.

Plus I rather see Mario, Isaac, and Wundu get the minutes there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlightlyOdway 1 Report post Posted December 18, 2017 Just for interests sake. If over the remainder of the season Mario proves that he is an actual NBA player, what are the implications of having not picked up his option? Is it simply that we would be competing on the open market for him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically its extremely unlikely he would resign with us and extremely unlikely someone would trade for him at the deadline with the exception if the team just needs a guy to fill in the rest of the year and doesn't mind losing him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
