he didn't struggle with lebron though; his low ceiling showed when lebron was out


Schroeder while LeBron and AD was out and then with just AD (20 Games)

17.2 PPG
3.4 RPG
8.0 APG
1.4 STL
3.8 TOV
Field Goal 45.4%
Three Pointers 40.0%
Free Throws 86.8%

.....those numbers aren't bad but it further proved that he wasn't even worth the 84 mil the Lakers first offered. The rest of the NBA saw this, which is why no one was looking to sign him when free agency hit last week.

Schroeder
15ppg
6 ast
44% fg
Good defender
Contract 1y/ 6m


Duncan Robinson
13ppg
2 ast
1 reb
44% fg
Horrible defender
Contract: 5y/90m

Dennis played himself :snoop:

Oh my god. Yikes. I mean if he can get the 9 million dollar deal with the player option...it won't be so bad...just better make a deep run with Celtics in the playoffs.

How about fukk no. Celtics need to keep their cap flexibility for next off-season. No way they risking that for Schindler's list

I get wanting to bet on yourself + not wanting to lock yourself in on a LTD you feel is team friendly just to be a trade chip (like everyone knew Kuzma would be when he locked in his extension) - but this is just the ugly other side of that gamble.

Luckily he's been around a while and made good money already, this isn't his first rodeo fresh off a rookie deal.
