Is Trey Lyles really a better Defender than Garza. I don't think so

My level of displeasure with Lyles may actually be surpassing my level of displeasure with Cojo.

Interesting that Diallo is in. Is Josh Jackson out of the rotation now? I would have thought Diallo would replace Frank Jackson not Josh Jackson. Also, props to Hayes for playing through the thumb pain... but also it would be fine to give Hayes a few games off and bring in Lee to see if Hayes can get his hand back to normal. If he keeps landing on it its never going to heal up.

No. The whole "Garza can't play defense" thing was overblown.

Jalen Green blows him out of the water athletically, but skillset wise its clear Cade is far ahead. For a kid just 20 to be able to cross good defenders over the way he has already this season and take it to the rim and score is really impressive.

It's probably another reason why he would really, really excel with 4 guys that can shoot, and also some of those guys being good at making cuts and moving without the ball when players go to double Cade.... because if you isolate Cade at the top of the key and you have four good offensive players around him great things should happen.

So for all those people who thought Cade was going to be an all around player, but not a big scorer, uh, I dont think so. This kid can get points in a variety of ways, and doesn't defer. He is going to get his no matter what.

His peak may see him hitting 28ppg or even more. Kid just has moves all over the damn floor.

Trey Lyles with multiple trash plays already. Early on I was really impressed with him but now I can see why we got him so cheap.

TJ was telling Casey " you need me coming off the bench coach Cojo is killing the flow"

So where is Josh Jackson?….

Thinking maybe putting Frank Jackson on Josh Jackson shoulders and letting them wear a long trench coat could help solve our little Trey Lyles/rotation problem.
