I think you will be getting your wish this summer?
Hopefully!
It is kinda funny how things can change or fans (myself included) can become fickle. Before the season he was the great Kyle Lowry and untouchable and now we are waiting to see what we can get for him. I guess having two points guards under 6"2' who cant hit open jump shot is not good?

We have to keep Critt. I really want to see him at poin and running the offense and see what that is like instead of playing him out of position. For a rookie, and with his size, he gets to the line a lot more than conley or lowry. If we can package a player and our laker pick for another high pick, then that would be good.

If you guys think you might want to trade Conley the Blazers would likely be interested. Something like our pick (13) and a player or two and we maybe take back Cardinal and his crap contract.

Kyle --- picked by the "great" jerry west.
Conley --- picked by thr "great" Chris Wallace & Marc Iavaroni.
Other players selected by the great Jerry west for the Grizz:
Pau---gone
Dahntay Jones---gone
AJ---gone
Swift---gone
LRob---gone
Chucky---gone
JrHarrington---gone
Tarrance Kinsey---gone
Damon Stoudemire---gone
Rudy Gay, Hakim Warrick, Mike Miller, and Kyle Lowry are the only ones left from last year and Miller, Hak, and Kyle have all been rumored to be on the trading block this year.
Frankly, I'm surprised that Mike Miller and Kyle Lowry are still here after the trade deadline.
If either is gone it will be Kyle, although he's been playing his butt off the last few games and definitely been more of a factor than Conley has.
Personally, I wouldn't mind keeping Kyle, Conley and Critt, and letting Kyle and Conley tandem the point with Critt taking on more of a combo guard role.
With that said, all three are definitely rookies and playing like that alot of the time, there is room for improvement for all of them.

lowry isn't half the talent conley is. conley is obviously a core part of our future plans, lowry isn't.oakfanintheeast wrote:he deserves better than rotting behind inconsistent conley. he's outplayed him all year.

I knew all that, I was just stating the guys that were aquired under the old regime as opposed to the guys picked up by the new regime.
My point being that Wallace and Iavaroni are cleaning house with what Jerry West did and that most of what West did has already been shipped.
Lowry, Hak, Miller, and Gay are all that's left from the days of JW.
And all that has happened since the last draft.

not quite. Boston drafted Jones for us, just like Houston took Gay for us. Jones and Bell were Jerry's picks all the way.
Good point. I wonder if the front office had the opportunity to forseen beyond West's choices of drafting the players he chosen. Would the front office think twice about choosing him for the GM job?

first, Jcrit isn't a PG.....he's a SG....
second, kyle is playing hard and earning minutes right now......over the last 2 weeks or so he is averaging more minutes per game than conley and deservingly so b/c kyle has played good lately and conley has had some rough games.....
i still like the pair of kyle and conley together....
i see no reason to move kyle.......
