Lawson or Ish? 

Post#1 » by SaintofKillers » Thu Oct 6, 2016 12:51 am

I have Lawson right now as a streamer but with Jackson going down and being out until possibly December, do you think it's better if I drop him in favor of Ish who's fantastic when given at least 30 minutes a game? He'd have a lot more to work with in Detroit too compared to the Sixers.

Even before the injury, I have Ish Smith ranked higher than Lawson.

Collison is expected to miss ONLY 8 games and he is healthy, meaning Lawson will just be a short-term rental, and maybe a decent reserve for the rest of the season.

Ish Smith as a reserve would be at par with Lawson, I think. But he'll get heavier and longer starter minutes than Lawson with the injury to Reggie Jackson..

Would go Ish now that Collison got off light. Lawson has a better chance to unseat Collison than Ish with Reggie out, but it's still very unlikely. Knee tendinitis tends to linger so this Reggie thing could drag on for a while.
