So I just saw something on twitter about jazz players specifically Donovan Mitchell is pissed at Gobert and there’s people divided in the lockerroom now

Let’s get Donovan Mitchell dealt to the knicks.

My guy Sexton has been unleashed since Garland was out of the lineup. I’m still mad we missed out on him by one spot. Smh

Trade for either him or Garland plus Love if they identify a logjam.

No thanks on Garland. He is a horrible defender, not a great scorer, mediocre playmaker

I think Garland would have been better suited for the Lakers. Looking back Lakers should have had sent Kuzma to NOLA instead of the 4th pick but we cannot blame them from freeing up enough cap space for Kawhi.

Sexton and RJ would have been a solid fit as their games would complement each other and both have bulldog personalities.

That’s why am not surprised to hear that Cavs were high on RJ and personally I would have been willing to swap picks if the Cavs would agree on us enforcing the same swap in 2020 assuming Cleveland was able to hold on to their pick this year (which obviously they would have had). Yeah I wanted a best shot at possible for Wiseman or Edwards as you and I both were already high on them as early as over a year ago.

Sexton and RJ would be a terrible fit

Sexton can't be off ball, he isn't a good playmaker (1.2 A:TO ratio), and he's one of the worst defensive players in the league

I mean, he'd be our best shooter by %, but he doesn't take many 3s, so he's not really great at shooting either

It'd be like if Payton could score but not pass. Which is, a pretty bad fit

You can just draft my guy maxey if that’s the case. He can do the same thing Sexton does, comes with defense, excellent at getting to the rim and making free throws and capable of getting hot from outside

I don’t see him fitting with Rj being a problem either. Calipari has prepped him well to become accustomed to playing off ball.
