I love Harrison and he did exactly what was needed this season by being the steady veteran influence for a young team coming up.
That said, his time has laser and he doesn’t fit what we need most now that all then you get guys have had a real taste of the full range of a playoff series.
We need a guy at that spot that compliments Domas. And that means:
Good size.
40% from three minimum.
Top end - all nba caliber if possible - defender of all front court positions.
Far too often it looked like Domas was working alone out there on both ends against three 6’ 9” heavier bodied guys. That won’t work and it would have been worse in the next round.
I am still of the mind that if we cannot find and swing a trade for the right guy, we need to throw an overpay offer at Grant Williams. He fits the needs ideally. And it could easily be a Jermaine O’Neal type situation where he totally blossoms as a starter.
40% from 3 for a 4 is a big ask.
HB shot 37% for the season.
I was a HB fan because he provided athleticism that the Warriors didn't have though obviously they were going to move on from him once KD joined.
Harrison didn't have a good series, though he had minutes when he attacked mismatches with Steph switched on him. Then he had a big highlight dunk off a slash cut to the rim, so reminiscent of his first couple of seasons with the Warriors.
Yeah at his age and salary, Kings might have to move on but a stretch 4 may be hard to find.
