Schroder is one of those guys.

One of those guys who loves confrontation, and will mix it up.

Stewart
Holland
Schroder

Is a possibly explosive bench, in terms of anger management issues.

I expect an exceptionally fun rest of the season, with a decided edge to the teams play. Understand what this is, and if you don't like how Stewart, or Holland act sometimes, Well, prepare yourselves.

I haven't had access to NBA games this season and only been following the games from the box score and occasionally game threads here so haven't seen Hollands game at all. Are you telling me that Holland is a confrontation lover? I just for no reason assumed that he was a timid rookie like most first year players but this is good news. Very good news.

And Schröder is a BEAST in disguise. I'm seeing the light in the tunnel. Still far away but I'm seeing it.
A huge part of Hollands game, is his almost complete lack of deferment. He has the ball going up the floor, he is going for it.

In a recent game, against Dallas, he was screaming, flexing, and motioning towards Exum, after he stole the ball, and scored on him. Not just right after, but continually as he backed down the floor. He then caused a turnover, and got the inbound, and Exum fouled him, on purpose immediately.

He is all about getting in peoples grill.

This is getting good, zeeb.

Schroder could possibly fit in well here.

Cade will hopefully probably get 2-3 minutes more rest a game now, to go along with sassers minutes, then I’d bet 3-5 from Hardaway

Meanwhile, the raptors just gave ingram 3yrs $120 million. Feeling like we dodged a bullet on that one.

That is Bizarre. Ingram/Barnes combo is weird.

That was a matrix style dodge.

They trade away OG and Siakam (both of whom I prefer to Ingram) to make room for it to be Barnes' team. Then they trade for Ingram.

I don't really get it.

I just posted almost the exact same comment in the "Around the League" thread. It's difficult to gain consistent chemistry with a player who plays part-time and gets paid $40M per year.

$40 million per year for a fringe all-star isn't too bad. I'd probably rather have had Jerami Grant or Cam Johnson at their price tags but overall its much better than just giving him a 5 year max.

He’s not worth even two-thirds of that price. No effort defender, average efficiency volume scorer. Gross.

I agree he is overpaid, but I don't think he's overpaid by much. Look at a guy like Tobias who is a lot older and who's never been an all-star and never averaged above 20 PPG in a season.... if Tobias got $26 million per year Brandon's floor was probably $30 million a year.

Tobias plays solid defense. Ingram is an easily-bullied twig that often doesn’t even try.

(and using a guy that’s often been considered overpaid — including this year —- really doesn’t weaken my case)

Tobias is also a highly available, unselfish leader
