I agree. Him and Deuce seem capable of getting the job done.

At this rate, we might be better off keeping him and Deuce.

At the very least, they can increase their values.

Deuce + Grimes as a whole can give you 20 PPG. Heck, Deuce scored 10 points in as many minutes last game. Grimes going for 15-20 will be pretty common if you stick with him. With Donte, that's easily 30-45 PPG from the three of them.

Brunson and OG give you 40-50 PPG. And that's until Randle comes back.

We should be focused on maintaining our # 1 Defensive rating right now. Our offense will be able to score enough to win if we do that.

They really should, we're so thin at both forward spots. I fully expect Tom to start Sims at PF, even though the most logical thing would be to slide OG to PF and start Hart. But we don't have a backup 3 if Hart is starting :lol:

There's a backup 3 on the roster, who is currently worth more as an expiring contract.

Doesn't hurt to play him. More offense for the 2nd unit, less defense, which we can live with it.

Nice to see Quentin responding to the rumors by winning more minutes from Donte over the past two weeks

Grimes - DiVincenzo
24 - 20
23 - 26
20 - 25
20 - 20
19 - 38
17 - 19

Total 123min to 148min over 6 games, for a difference of just 4.1667mpg.

Brunson: So what are you paid to do?
