It's a hard choice. It's easy to judge after we do see them play which takes the fun out of it. I wanted to see the results, and it's pretty clear. I think and HOPE Ivey comes off the bench, and let him score all he wants. Like The Microwave.... Burks might be a better starter, with Ausar as another playmaker, but a guy who scores off athleticism and hustle, too. I'm not sure who plays the 4/5 this year, but one will be an alley-oop threat. I actually hope Stew plays more inside like he did early in his career, and have Bagley or Wiseman practice the 3, since they don't do much of anything else.. When Stew is in the paint, it takes 2-3 guys to box him out, allowing for another Piston to rebound/score. And Stew has a nice mid-range game, very soft touch, knows how to use the glasses angle-wise, but also for protection, right and left hand.

I hope we don't ever take into consideration (too much) how much we're paying a player, or how high of a pick they were, contract issues. I think the coach's job is to win games. No more tank ****. Put the best group who can play together. Accountability. They've been playing basketball all their lives. They don't need any more motivation.

I’m not entirely sure I would trade him right now, but Ivey is the obvious choice. Trading him later unless he improves significantly would mean he will have far less value, but trading him now I also don’t think we would get the return he had as the #5 pick last year.

I was vocal in my want for Shaedon Sharpe and knowing what we do now I think he is easily the better choice for this team. That being said, I prefer Ivey’s potential over everyone taken after him so here’s to hoping he develops into what the experts believe he could be.

Amazing poll results.

Don’t think you could get 94% of Americans to agree the sky is up.
