I think he and Ant are number on the team per 200 minutes. He's been a big positive for us even with his streakyness. In 2022 the NBA is a guards league and guards who can score are just extremely important. I don't think he is easily replaceable just like Beasley wasn't easily replaceable. It doesn't mean we cant move on or find better but you need to have guards who can get buckets, they are the most important part of a modern offense and they aren't incredibly easy to find.
To be clear, I wasn't trashing Nowell. I recognize he's a great scorer and his defense has been improved this year, however, with his inability to hit 3's, it creates a problem for this roster. I wanted to know if people thought he was easily replaceable, or if we need to make a move to extend him.
D Lo, when you consider the price tag, isn't very good value I can't imagine.
Money is tight, we need guards who can score, so I wanted to know people's thoughts.
