Taking this here because it's wrong

I turned off qualified and searched all players and he’s not top 50.

I def don’t see the slightly above average defense.

THJ is not consistent. Maybe he becomes that and I’m wrong. Right now I see him as a super sub. Seemed all right in that role tonight.


Again, he missed games. That obviously is a reason. He'd hover around top 50.

Outside of the first 5-6 games, THJ has been consistent. KP isn't consistent either so maybe he should be a 6th man as well?

THJ has shown enough to warrant a starting gig. Secondly, you can't pay 2 2 Guards money in free agency.


Per game. THJ is not too 50 per game.

KP is in his 3rd season and is the focus of the opponent’s scheme. THJ is the secondary option.

Here’s his numbers starting with the CLE breakout game: https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/h/hardati02/gamelog/2018/#286-302-sum:pgl_basic

19.7 PPG 4.8 RPG 3.8 APG 1.4 SPG
45% on 15.8 FGA
34% on 7.4 3PA
82% on 3.8 FTA

Go look at the game log. A lot of bad nights from him.

I’m not even knocking him. He’s a good player. Just think he’s better suited as the 6th man.



Those are 6th man numbers?? What's wrong with you?

That's 20/5/4/1.4 SPG with good peripheral numbers. If he gave me that for an entire season, that's top 8ish SG #'s and that's around where I'd rank him. He's not a 6th man. He's a 3rd/4th best player on a contender. We need to hit in the draft one more year.

They don't want him in the All star game, that's why they keep playing him :o

He'd be bad there too, but in a different way


He's too far from the rim. Whenever he has the ball above the free throw line, and decides to dribble he commits a turnover.


I'm on record elsewhere today

I don't care what position KP plays, I never want to see him dribble the ball ever again

KP's been bad because he's trying too hard, forcing a ton. Getting Tim back and hopefully Trey should let him be more selective.

Why y'all so eager for KP to play center? He's not gonna rebound well enough for it and we have 4 other bigs on the team.

His wing defense is scheme based. the scheme sucks, so does the defense and lack there of.

Because playing on the perimeter is not for him.

Playing center when he can't even establish position certainly isn't. Play him there full time he'll average 6 boards and multiple injuries.

Dude is SF, possible PF in a year or so, been saying it since draft night. His height and length help him recover to the rim from alters and chasedowns.

His wing defense is scheme based. They don't shoot it they don't guard it collectively.

KP would be nice in that Pau Gasol. Aint nothing wrong with that. We **** up last draft missing on Mitchell. We MUST HIT THIS YEAR AND NEXT YEARS DRAFT. Draft an alpha type player like a Kobe, DeRozen, Kevin Durant, Russ.
