I'm struggling with understanding this logic. Please elaborate further my guy
There's a lot of red flags here. Why not experiment with DSJ off the bench as a 6th man? JJ Barea just got hurt, yet you rather play Devin Harris? You just dont give up on a sophomore PG as fast as the Mavs are doing, especially with his value at his lowest right now. PGs take the longest to adjust to the NBA game. I get it the fit with Luka isnt there, but in general the Mavs really really suck at drafting unless its a PG (Nash, Kidd, Luka). Them tryna move DSJ says alot imo. If he cant bring value to a borderline playoff team, what kinda value will he bring to us?
You can find an inefficient, undersized, 15-4-3 point guard in every draft. The list of NBA guards that can put up those #s in 30 mpg without a real impact is plentiful.
What does Frank's "skillset" translate to?
His skillset will only be appreciated on a good team. His trashness will be magnified on a bad team. We see him play defense, we see him double when needed, defend the post, play help D, etc etc all while the rest of teh team looks clueless. The plays he makes defensively do not show up on any boxscore. He's literally the only one that knows every defensive rotation. At least he has that going for him. Where he can guard multiple positions and know all the defensive rotations. On a good team thats very valuable. Frank has played his best basketball (mostly as a rookie) sharing the floor with KP. Statistically it was one of the best lineups in the NBA. Not ready to call it full quits on his bum *** without seeing him play with KP for a period of time.
THJ is damn near unmoveable with that contract. We need to hop on this trade but include Mudiay, Burke, even add a 2nd rounder instead of Frank.
