Don’t know if he had a nickname yet but I’d like to submit “Thrillingham” for consideration.

I'd seen a bunch of times that his nickname is Shifty

Yep. I've heard that one. I don't like it.

I like Shifty.

The Sheriff of Dillingham

Have a feeling he is garland 2.0.. Something to be desired the first year or so, and then turns into a stud. Guy definitely needs to hit the weight room hard.

He's actually ripped as hell. He may not be able to add any more muscle without becoming muscle bound.

Minneapolis is the home of Dairy Queen - they need to get him on board.

Especially if he can drop a bar or two

Numbers I find interesting.

Dillingham: USG%: 30.3, AST%: 29.7, TO%: 13.5
Castle: USG%: 22.0, AST%: 18.4, TO%: 13.0
McCain: USG%: 21.1, AST%: 11.0, TO%: 10.1

So basically you are saying that the guy labeled as undersized shooting guard is better at playmaking then other guys labeled as point guards? Am I right?

Not sure who was labelling Dillingham as an undersized shooting guard. Most people had him listed as a combo-guard at worst and a score first PG at best.

But neither Castle or McCain played as or are considered to be PGs at this time. Aside from Castle himself nobody views him as a PG and everyone knew McCain was playing a role and might be more Seth Curry than actual floor general.

Yes, that was exactly my question

To me he wasn't saying anything. He found the numbers interesting.

Wow better than Kyrie's in every way. Did metrics have Kyrie in the bottom 0.5% of defenders?

I think about how Jordan McLaughlin was often a last-ditch effort to infuse life into the offense.

In Game 5 against Dallas, we closed the first half with him after we we were down 20
In Game 3 against Denver, Finch subbed him in down 17 in the second quarter

He was effective in pushing the pace some, but he was reliant on getting others involved because he couldn't get his own shot effectively. I think that's the kind of role I could see Dillingham in right away, though obviously he will be more than just on an emergency basis. I think his shot creation will be the determining factor on if he can play in the postseason, not necessarily his defense.

If we had Monte it would go that deep. Without Monte, he is in by default. You don’t want to force Ant to PG whenever Mike is off the floor. NAW is not a PG and cannot really play make. So unless your gonna replace RD with whoever we get as the 3rd string, he is gonna be 15-25 minutes a night or more in the playoffs.

Here I'm referring to the role as what his job is on the court, not necessarily the minutes he is playing.

My bad, I saw “ I think his shot creation will be the determining factor on if he can play in the postseason, not necessarily his defense.” Then assumed you were talking about minutes.
