Since when :wtf:. I'll be alright with that when cats stop mentioning breh as a PG. Aside from Bron/maybe Luka getting a pass, none of those cats fit that bill. You do not want your pg turning the ball over.

Even Luka had his share of struggle rosters and still got to the postseason.
I didn’t say pg. i said primary ball handler. Kris Middleton is a primary ball handler he ain’t a pg. Lebron is a primary ball handler he not a pg. Jayson Tatum is a primary ball handler not a pg. booker and kd are primary ball handlers not pgs. Luka is one of the best players in nba history and he ain’t never went to the post season by himself.

Don’t get me wrong i get where you coming from but if he was out there turning it over 3-4 times a game and avg 16ppg and shooting 39% it would be a real issue. But we all see him getting better while playing on one of the worst rosters in the nba. I’m not gonna crucify the potential superstar for doing to much sometimes and turning over the rock.

This.
Jokic and Sabonis lead their teams in assists they are how their offense functions. Typical point guard isn’t the same like it was in 2005

With that said Cade clearly runs the point and nobody else on this team since he got drafted can besides Monte Morris who was hurt

He's just finishing the plays he's supposed to finish. He hasn't shown enough to be worth reinvesting in with a new contract imo.
We know Troy tho lol

Anywho


Finish strong Cade. Play as many games left and force this gm/owner to starring in more solid older players like Tek-9

I don't see a move that makes this team a playoff team next year.

As much as not getting Wemby hurt I'm still salty we didn't get Paulo. I still don't know what to make of the Cade Ivey pairing because of dumb ass bally sports.

34+ wins should be the minimum goal next season. That’s competitive improvement and around the playing spots. Teams rarely jump from tank commanding to playoffs without gaining a superstar.


And the trade for Bridges talk is a good deal for Detroit as long as it doesn’t cost 4 drafts picks and young assets.

But it would be worth it for two frps and maybe sasser. Me, personally I wouldn’t include Thompson.

The best 3 and D player in the market would do wonders for yall.

Duren and Stew isn’t a frontcourt worth keeping together Long term
