What does the ideal lineup around Trae even look like?

[HMFFL]

How is Bogdan Bogdanovic, our best scorer, not on this list??

There's no reason to have six players per game with double digit field goal attempts. We must improve on this. Murray's team leading attempts should be spread out amongst the players, but mainly to Jalen Johnson, and Zacch. Bogi shouldn't be attempting 13.9 field goals per game.

Yeah NBA offenses don't work this way. Particularly offenses that utilizes lots of ball movement. Not only that, but shuffling guys in and out of the lineup due to injury will inflate FGA's per game. I imagine this was the case for us all year. If Bey originally comes off the bench, and suddenly thrust into a starter role, then he's going to get more attempts naturally being on the floor more.

If we were more of an ISO heavy team, then a coach could control the amount of shots a player takes better, but even then, it's not a guaranteed outcome. THJ and Dallas pretty much confirms this. Mavs are a heavy iso, drive and kick offense. Kyrie and Luka combined for 43 FGA per game, and THJ still found a way to get 12. Giving Kyrie/Luka 1.5 more FGA, isn't going to make difference.

As far as Bogi not being deserving of his 14 FGA, i'd say there's no justification that Zacch deserves more touches than him either at the moment. If anything, they shoot about the same, and JJ gets the bump. Who wouldn't want a career 38% 3 point shooter taking at least 10 shots a game?

I doubt one of the NBA Finals Teams or playoff teams had six players that average double digits. You don't seem to understand that a teams not going to win that way. It leaves the ball fumbling in the hands of the lesser talents on the team.

Oprah "you can have yen field goal attempts"

"You too, and you"

Our first overall pick deserves consistent touches early if he's going to be on the main roster.

Otherwise, let's just continue to not be relevant, and keep our top 6 picks riding the bench.

What's the trade?

What's the trade?

Cavs need a SF, we need a salary dump:

D Hunter for Isaac and a 2nd rounder?

Don't we need a Big SF too?

I'm just weighing the cost of that long term Hunter contract.

Dumping him, signing Okor to a lesser, short term deal opens up other avenues.

Would 6'5" Okoro + 6'8" Vit + 6'9" Risacher + 6'9" Dyson not be enough to cover SF minutes for the year?

[HMFFL]

Issac needs Caris LeVert's attempts. Cleveland relied on Caris who's not a consistent shooter. 12.1 attempts per game, 42% from the field, and 32% from three. With those numbers he's the Cavs third option.


Isaac Okoro should be able to do much better than Caris. I'd prefer to move Bogi for him and whatever else instead of De'Andre Hunter.

-Trae
-Bogdan
-Lauri
-Jalen
-Okongwu

really would be an offensively perfect starting 5.

With Bufkin-Risacher-Dyson providing the perfect defensive complements off the bench. Likely wouldn't win a title, but feels like 50+ win regular season with a deep postseason run.

How exactly do we pull off such a trade? With this ask?

We need Trae to take a huge leap. The focus is on his teammates but he's one of the main problems.

Trae will only go so far unless he has a generational talent at the 4 or 5. I wish him the best of luck but he's not ever going to have championship success until he improves himself.

And we all are 100% in agreement that we would like to add a generational talent next to Trae

[tbhawksfan1]

I love the adding of DD and ZR. Also keeping Vit. Hawks are getting big on the wings

Just like all the other top players on their respective teams needed a second and sometime a 3rd to carry some of that burden.
Why is there this expectation for Trae to carry the burden by himself? I don't understand it.

I love this stat.

Adding some floor spacing big men could go a long way towards pulling opposing rim protectors away from the hoop and opening up the driving lanes.

Kel'el Ware, Kyle Filipowski would have been huge in that regard. Brook Lopez would also be helpful.

[Jamaaliver]

Their shot selection is absolutely terrible...
