this is a roster of Beal surrounded by bench players. there's not one legitimate starter quality player on this team except for maybe Gafford.

It’s striking seeing how much better the Jazz are

It's interesting. The super max was meant for star players to stay in smaller markets what Beal has been an all-star with out another all star team never on the court he's regressed. He's not a super max guy and as much as I love him. I think it's time to make some hard choices.

This is the truth. Dinwiddie looks physically limited, but he also looks like he's fine with how garbage he is playing. Westbrook would at least show some emotion and disgust with it. Basically same goes for Beal. He's got like a 50% turnover rate and still throws up the same trash every game. I don't know if COVID ruined this man's game or not, but it's getting ridiculous. At least stop talking about getting paid $200 mil this summer, my dude.
We won games due to Kuzma and KCP. They wouldn't be here if Westbrook wasn't traded. He wanted to go back to LA and we accommodated him. It's a shame Dinwiddie has been our garbage the last 10 games or so. I would trade him in a second to get Simmons or another young, big point guard, but his value is pretty low right now. I don't miss Westbrook's turnovers and I think he's a stat stuffer. Never had fun watching him and Beal dribbling the rock for 24 seconds every possession. Now, I do miss the faster pace. That's what I don't understand with Dinwiddie. He doesn't have to be Westbrook, but I don't get the slow pace every time he gets the ball off a rebound. Maybe that's a WUJ thing, but it doesn't make much sense. This is the NBA not some Ivy League team or Georgetown with JT3.
Dinwiddie has been garbage all season, let us not mince words. Aside from a few big buckets in games early on, he has be unpalatable. Zero energy, looks disinterested, pounds that ball, makes a lot of questionable decisions. I can accept some of the physical limitations but the attitude, body language, and approach has been unforgiveable IMO.

What's there to love about Beal at this point? That he smiles a lot? The fact he employs Mayo as his lackey speaks volumes about Beal.
