Elephant room(per the fans/me), Kessler Edwards.
What is going to happen? I'll start with the negatives, yes there the clear classic rookie mistakes he makes, mostly is overreacting on sequences and not slowing the game down mentally for him... that's it. That would've been clearly treated had he been playing more and more once we started losing Wing players as well as he was showing some positive attributes.
The positives, its very clear that he helps fills the wing void on both ends much more than either going small or big in those areas.
So what happens? as a 2 way, he can't play in the playoffs.... if they are not going to bring him on then are we not doing ourselves a disservice to the team by creating a contributing role for him down this stretch only to be yanked away in the now most important games of the year? His ability to stretch really helps out 7/11, even if not consistent yet but maybe more looks and work with Korver he can drop 2-3 a game consistently.
If to cut, who? JJ is the fan favorite to be sliced. LMA retire? almost too soon for that. We want Blake to actually play so no there.
This is stupid by the NBA, injuries happen after Jan, they should create a full year IR designation for late season injuries that rules a player out for the whole season. It's stupid that there isn't....
I want to cut Johnson.
Hes a nothing on offense. And his defense is not better than Kess. He also just makes a ton of stupid decisions.
The spacing Kess provides alone with vital for our offense.
Still it seems like Nash would never even entertain the idea. He treats JJ like our 6th man.
In that case, we simply have to cut LMA or Blake. I think Blake would be more useful. But Nash will NEVER play him. So then whats the point of having him on the roster?
