Absolutely!! We wouldn't have made the playoffs, let alone compete with the champs, without RJ.

Hoping he gets back to ballin, so we can up his trade value???

I hope he gets back to ballin, so we can be a scary team again.

Reggie is why we had success last year.

We will not get a better PG for the money...ain't happnin.

That being said, I'm not sure who a replacement would be that is significantly better, so hopefully RJ just learns to play better team ball and gets his knee 100%.


Yeah, that's basically my line of reasoning too. I'm really hoping he makes a good impression around the league to get a trade value that's not in the gutters right now. That way we can consolidate some assets via trade (assuming we bounce out of the 1st round again if the Cavs) and make a big trade before re-signing KCP.

I don't know who, but it's definitely do-able in terms of movement. I'd love to get Dragic or Payton or maybe even Rubio out of it somehow.

Getting swept isn't being competitive. The reason we struggled late in those games was because of Reggie's hero ball tactics, and his nonexistent defense.

Reggie isn't going to all of a sudden become a distributor, he is a one dimensional player, and that's not going to get us anywhere.

It isn't about getting a better point guard. We could downgrade at the position, but be better off as a team, and Ish has shown that. A player who can lead, play unselfishly, and give effort on both sides of the floor would be a net positive over RJ even if they are less talented.

I know dude. errr, well i know that's the majority consensus. Obviously i am the oddball that disagrees with you. If i agreed i wouldn't have commented. The group think volume is high enough. Doesn't need me adding to it.
