No way to prove it, just a feeling. Ownership messed that up from day one. PJ is the type of guy who inspires guys like Grayson Allen to win.greekbuck34 wrote:If we knew that Allen and Bobby Portis would forget to shoot in a whole series yes we should have kept PJ Tucker.
Even with Tucker we lose our series though.
We were primarily missing offense. A guy that could make shots even semi-contested.
We had plenty of grittiness or defense or rebounding.
A team that wins 2 games on the road has enough of that especially with the way we beat them in game 5.
Thing is without PJ I don't think we trade for Allen. They were already saying PJ would have cost 40 mil for one season after the luxury tax. What I hear is back to back titles wasn't worth 40 mil, which sucks and now they miss out on all the sales of playoff/final tickets and the millions in championship gear/memorabilia.
