I actually agree. But Thibs doesn’t. He likes his rim protection.Thibs needs to get the fukk outta here with that thenDudes the 8th pick he should be playing alongside IQ and RJ
Randle needs to go to the 5 and our offense needs to look like we're in 2021

I get why Sexton wouldn't register as a winning player but I think Cleveland is a really tough place to judge players on right now. Darius Garland feels slept on to me, Sexton feels like a dude who HAS to be a gunner because of the lack of talent around him. That said, even at his best he has a scorer's feel for the game rather than a playmaker's. He knows how to get buckets a lot more than he knows how to make players around him open. But I think that actually isn't the worst thing in Thibs' offense. We run a fairly simplistic set of plays with guys knowing where to make reads by design. The lead guard almost always starts plays on a swing pass which would mitigate some of the gunner mentality on initial sets.
That' mentality is the gift and the curse here. If Thibs can keep Sexton under control, then his competitive side is a huge edge. We already see that competitiveness in Randle and RJ both. This is a team of try-hards and Sexton fits the bill. He's improved after each offseason so far and you just don't get guys approaching 25 ppg on 48% from the field out of thin air. Maybe the most intriguing bit here is that Sexton is 22 years old. He's not gonna be a facilitator through and through, but he can be a third-scoring threat that can create his own buckets if Randle/RJ are struggling while also playing off-ball effectively when they're on.
He's not a guarantee, but he's a great buy-low candidate point blank. If we can snag him for an audition, he could really fit in with the young core and make it harder for defenses to play lopsided on the left side of the floor. He'd be EATING off the weak-side (right-side). He's worth an audition if we can buy-low.
And Thibs stubbornness was a nice piece of why we our asses kicked in 5I actually agree. But Thibs doesn’t. He likes his rim protection.
I'll say this. We were trading for Dame a week ago and looking to pay Oubre.....
I was making fun of the fact they got the Knicks trading for everyoneWho’s we? The fans or the front office. Because only thing coming out of our front office is Draft workouts from the players themselves.
Actually, let me also say...
His performance against the Nets...
He probably is the most fearless player in the Nba and you can tell he DOES NOT accept anyone calling a game and saying he's not on the level of the opps.
He really takes that shyt personal, outs his rep and pride on the line and it translates to him taking shyt to another fukking level.
With Sexton... YOU'LL NEVER HAVE nikkaS ON THE OPPOSITE TEAM LAUGHING DURING A BLOWOUT AND DOING BOTTLE FLIPPING TRICKS IN THE GARDEN..
Yea I agree quickley and sexton may be redundant and I’d like to see what we have with quickley. I see some of the qualities in quickley as I see in sexton but quickly was bad finishing at the rim. He’s going to have to improve on that.I think y'all want Quickley be your own Sexton, so pointless to pursue him, BUT
Sexton got heart, and sometimes that makes up for his in-game weaknesses.
We about to have QuickSex![]()
I agree I just don’t get it. It really only makes sense if the rumors they realized they won’t be able to move up and aren’t feeling the quality of guys at 19. Then add Obi makes even less sense because he is early in his rookie contract,I think y'all want Quickley be your own Sexton, so pointless to pursue him, BUT
Sexton got heart, and sometimes that makes up for his in-game weaknesses.
What’s a better trade chip down the line for a bigger star? Obi behind Randle or Sexton with a true showcase next to talent?I think y'all want Quickley to be your own Sexton, so pointless to pursue him, BUT
Sexton got heart, and sometimes that makes up for his in-game weaknesses.
