DDV makes big plays on the defensive end, Monk makes big plays on the offensive end.
And it really did feel like Monk played his best ball against the Kings (he isn't the only one). Good to see the breakdown from Pizza on this. Maybe he is a guy that, give him some security, he would be in a situation with a good friend and that might bring out the best in him.
I'm taking Monk over DDV. IMO DDV just isn't good enough to start, and doesn't bring what I want off the bench. His role is tougher to define than Monk's.
I will be happy if we sign Monk, but that can't be it. The off-season cannot just be Monk/Murray run it back. This team needs serious wing depth and size. And we need to find a trade for Richaun.
The Hali for Sabonis move was risky. I want more of that from Monte.
Yeah I can certainly see that. And yes, the wing depth needs to be addressed this off season. Size and length. I don't want the Kings to be going after the Mo Harkless' any more. They need to be able to hold down a consistent role.
