I agree with this.
We dont need an inefficient chucker off the bench.
We do need another playmaker at least though. McBride is bad on offense and stagnates. Grimes just catches and shoots and attacks a closeout sometimes.
Malcolm Brogdon come over.
Brogdon would be great. But Sexton isn't an inefficient chucker. He's consistently near 60% TS.
Also, plenty of champions had bench guys who basically just got buckets.
Vinnie Johnson
Corliss Williamson
Mo Williams
Speights and Barbosa
Portis
Kukoc
The list goes on. It's a pretty common role.
Trade lust gone wild.
Leon clearly has the chips to bolster the roster, but he’s also proven himself to be patient and cautious. If another deal is coming this season it will almost certainly be right up against the deadline, so keep your powder dry and just enjoy the next month or so.
Randle and Brunson are going to put on a damn show. Enjoy it. Maybe one of our young guys or role players steps up and surprises. Sh*t look at Hartenstein. Give it a minute.
You nailed multiple points. Amen
I've grown to respect the patience of this FO even though they've had to recover from some missteps at times.
Warren Buffet said "Don't lose money" and what I like is this FO has not made a fatal move. That's way more important than what many impatient trigger happy fans may realize.
I'm fine with them waiting for the next opportunity, because getting OG and moving RJ in the same deal was the kind of winning trade that makes you profitable even after multiple small losses. So, yeah, let them keep their powder dry and let's give the bench more time to succeed or fail. Our starting unit is now solid enough that we can afford to do stress tests on the rest of the roster until the next trade materializes.
