He would be a deadly corner option. If he can’t create the pace he can definitely create the space.

This is a truly embarrassing take. First to compare a guy like Fred who brings all the intangibles and contributes to winning to a guy like José who didn't play defense. I loved José as a teammate and player but he had many deficiencies. Also to suggest it was nothing but dump offs LOL

Maybe watch the game next time?

Now try and compare their defence and see how it goes for you.


VanVleet is a good defender, but people seem to ignore the fact that he gets abused by bigger guards all of the time.

How so, exactly? Fred is elite at digging. It's hilarious watching him get credit for blocks on would-be-steals that he simply intercepts as the guy he's defending gathers or goes to make a move.

He's not just a good defender, he's arguably the best defender at PG in the league.

I'm watching right now. Jacking up shots. Not creating anything.

Fred is shooting like 30% in the last 10 games or so. It's pathetic.

fatigue is a huge factor. we need FVV fresh for the second half. not making the all-star game could be a blessing in disguise tbh.

Masai needs to get bench help to play behind FVV.

I think we did have a top 5 offence one year that featured bargs/bosh/jose/ummm others. So Jose couldn't have been that bad. Super efficient at least.

Fred has to takes fewer shots. No way a player like him should have a 24% usage . Will he change before his player option ? I doubt it.

Number one. It doesn't matter who we have. Fvv is playinf 40 mins. That's just nurse.

Number 2 the second half doesn't matter. The only thing we should be doing is tanking the second jalf. This team is not it. The second second should be about developing the bench, young pkayeez like flynn banton and Barnes and trying new things. This team is doing jack ****.

The only way to get him fresh is to get a backup for him. Or else a starting big PG who'd allow Fred to play SG regularly.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Fred and siakam were our only good players against portland. Fred's defense was incredible in the second half. I don't know how to explain his awareness of knowing when to double-team and when to stunt. Think ir has something to do with something fred has said alot: (paraphrasing) "i do the same thing that i hate being done to me"

Sometimes i watch his D and say "no fred ypu're on the wrong side of him"....but it turns out he's on the RIGHT side. Maybe it has something to do qith knowing who's more ambidextrous than who. I don't think lowry's defense was ever at the level that fred is at this year. Last year i wasnt sure. This year i am. Fred is officially a better defender than lowry has ever been.

Fred had 6 stocks against portland. I'm curious how many actual turnovers he caused. But i don't wanna go back and watch that game again lol. Likely more than 10. Could be more than 12. The only reason he doesn't get credit for his ACTUAL TOs caused is because the methods by which the league keeps track of them is seriously out-dated.

Samson folk pointed something out with his post game analysis and he has a very good point. There were a couple times where the raps cut the portland lead to 4 and 6 and 7 where they should have stopped pressing. It was stupid to continue doing that after within striking distance and portland was fielding multiple ball handlers. There was enough time to revert to their defensive sets.

He did hit a clutch three and have 12 assists to be fair. Hmmm, actually sounds a lot like FVV's game against the Wizards -- except with worse percentages, less points, less defensive plays and more turnovers. Remember all of the FVV bashing throughout the game thread and post-game thread? I bet Cavs fans aren't calling Garland names like "Turdland" or "Trashland" though.
