Let's Say This Team Needed a "Scoring" Small Forward

[Nikolokolus]

Your dead on we need a "scoring small forward," But we don't need a starter, we need someone to come off the bench to spark the offense and keep us moving. I'll leave it up to KP but if all else fails Trout-Law can fit that bill.

Mike Miller. Like Outlaw, except he's a true veteran, passes and shoots around 50% from the field overall.

Kyle Korver off the bench, Batum is the starter for the next 10+ years

I wouldn't mind Mike Miller as a reserve (though definitely not for the entire MLE), but the main difference between him and Outlaw is that Miller can't create his own shot at this point in his career like Outlaw can.

I wouldn't give him the full MLE either (maybe 4.5 million for three years?) and despite his inability to create his own shot, I'm fine with that, I'd let Brandon and Andre try to create one for him.

Portland has a scoring SF in Batum. What it doesn't have is an offense to take advantge of one. Portland's offense is designed to spread the floor and let Brandon create. If there were any motion at all, a SF would be used more. Given the same opportunity that other SF's are given, Batum could average close to 20 a night.

this team needs more "scorers" period....not just at SF....


Actually, this team needs a better offense....the "iso" offense is absolutely pathetic....

I have no idea ... I will say this though, if KP could somehow parlay LMA, Greg and other picks or pieces into Cousins he'd be worth whatever supposed maturity and character risk he carries.

Huh? What?

Huh? What?

Your lack of reading comprehension skills are not my problem.

LA, Greg, and picks to net a foul-plagued big who can't shoot FTs and doesn't have range? What fucking stupid idea. I'm confused as to where my reading comprehension factors into the equation.
