Pace adjusted their defence was 10th. The Timberwolves were also significantly better with him on court.
In a league obsessed with efficiency players with his skill set are worth a lot.
I can understand why you would want to. He would be extremely valuable to the right contender at the deadline though.
You could probably get a lot back.
They actually have enough talent to perform surprisingly well like the Jazz did last season.
I think you are right though. They will give the ball to Scoot, Sharpe and Simons. Allow them to get their shots up.
Probably trade Grant and Williams for more assets, secure another top pick and be...
It looks likely that the West could be a lot healthier in the playoffs than in the regular season.
Could be a huge boost for almost every team. The greatest exceptions are the Nuggets and Kings.
For a team that has been a below average shooting team, it is a huge move.
Teams love to pack the paint against the Grizzlies. They can't when Bane and Kennard are on the court.
Clippers are running a short bench and are choosing to play John Wall over Brandon Boston, Covington or Amir Coffey.
Bench is getting blown out and they played Kawhi 20 minutes in the half.
Terrible management.
Honestly, my only worry for them is they lack a big that can do the dirty work like Brook Lopez or Steven Adams.
They have a lot of perimeter talent and will add more with their future picks.
I think their best move would be to trade for expiring contracts. They can use the cap space next year to make rebuilding moves and then tank that season.
The top is.
The West is stronger everywhere else.
Fewer tanking teams and they have the .500 Timberwolves outside the play-in.
The .500 76ers are 8th in the East.
Cuban has made a mess of the Mavs after picking up Luka.
I am not sure how far they can get without another top-40 guy. I also don't know how they would find one. They don't have young players who could make a jump (Luka is the 3rd youngest on the roster) and they lack future assets as well.
