I think the organization thinks the expendable players are Jett, Tyus, and Moritz. Jett because he's a bust and overpaid, Tyus because he's journeyman depth at a position of strength, and Moritz because he's injured and Goga/JI are better.

I guess summer break is over..."position of strength"?

Tyus is the ONLY real PG on the whole team...whether we need or want any PGs is a whole other discussion, but position of strength? Technically, it was more loaded with Fultz or Payton than it is now - outside of Tyus.

I understand that AB is the per 36 runner up (right after Bamba) but, c'mon...don't crap on the guy they had to bring in to cover the gaping hole. My only complaint is that we didn't grab Tyus 2 years ago.

We have Suggs, AB, Bane, and Jase. That is a terrific guard rotation.

I agree and am very excited for it....but none of them bring what Tyus does, year after year...apparently, the FO saw a skill gap and filled it with Tyus. He's a very clearly defined PG. If his role is diminished, it would simply be a matter of offensive scheme (or lack of) and continuing without anyone under 6'10 playing like a true PG. I like the current setup and I really like Tyus running the second unit, which is full of guys with talent but who will play better with a real orchestra conductor like Tyus. AB, with his size and agility, might benefit most as a defense-first cutter/finisher and as a guy whose confidence might soar as a real PG gets him good open 3's and clear lanes to the hoop.
