I like his game though. He's on my very short list of SGs to go after: Edwards, Hield, Beal, Booker, maybe Bogdanovic.

Probably non of that will transpire. But hey, we can still go back to THJr if we can't get anybody.

Yet another rookie better than RJ

That chart really highlights that the Lakers have had so many ATG players.

You would rather have Coby White as your PG than have RJ as your SF?

Yes. I value players who can actually hit jump shots.

Touche.

I still prefer what RJ offers at his position.

I want my PG to be a little more dynamic in terms of passing and using his offensive skills to make players around him better. Otherwise we can run Trier at the PG spot and he can give us similar production to White.

PG: Frank
SG: Trier
SF: RJ
PF? Iggy?
C: Mitch

Wouldn't mind seeing this lineup.

Can he though? I mean he's shooting 38% from the field and 34% from 3. Those are pretty much Knox's numbers from last year.

Season high for Melo. Nice!

Catch-and-Shoot Melo is the best.

Impressive wouldn't mind them squeaking into the playoffs if Nurkic manages to come back.

Replace Trier with Dotson.

With Dotson you get a player that can play off the ball, and is a threat behind the 3 point arc.

Just when I thought the Wizards had momentum towards the 8th seed they lose two winnable games against the Cavs and Bulls.

It is like teams are allergic to the 8th seed which I think there is reason to be.

#8 in the East gets the 15th pick in the draft and the right to be bludgeoned by the Bucks in the first round.

#9 in the East gets the 9th seed in the lottery with a chance of moving into the Top 4.

Have been rooting for the Blazers but I wouldn’t mind the Grizzlies or Pelicans making it. Basketball gods may be tempted to give these two teams a top draft pick again.
