How can Tisse be in your shooting "death lineup" when the dude is shooting 40% from three?
You could extract as many 1sts out of trading Grant or Brogdon to Indy and getting Hield back in return. Then, trade for players that fit into our TPEs and package them with Hield to a contender like Miami for a combination of Lowry and/or Love and one of their 1sts. You could get Delon Wright from Washington or Justin Holiday from Denver for a future 2nd. That’s just an idea on how to get a 1st.
I sorta agree with another poster a few back, we need to keep ANT until we determine whether Scoot is a bust or not and can at least be a solid starter. And I'm curious to see how Ant's D does the rest of the year. If he can at east play decent D his value goes up quite a bit given his offenseive ability
I’ve been largely impressed with the improvements Ant had made on defense so far. With players coming back, it’s likely he will also have more energy to expend on that end as well.
Because Tincel town is still operating off the same scouting report that the rest of the league is using.
That just doesn’t motivate me. I think Grant is more valuable to us than that.
Yeah, agreed. I feel like trading Grant for the one 1st and a guy we don’t intend to keep would be a serious underpay. We need all the shooting we can get right now, in no position to trade away any shooting for JUST draft picks.
We only gave up a late 1st because Jerami was recruited here by Dame and made this his destination of choice, giving Detroit zero leverage.
Yeah, I’ll be honest, I was not high on the Thybulle re-signing. I personally always thought he was too small to be a long term starting SF. In his current role though, where he can come off the bench and just fly around the court, he’s been great. Add to the fact that he’s now a confident shooter, he’s obviously worth the 2nd we gave up.
Yeah, did anyone say that they only like him because of where his three point percentage is at this moment? I like the guy because he's one of the most disruptive off ball defenders in the game, he's a decent on ball perimeter defender, he finishes strong at the rim on the break and when cutting and he's a decent three point threat when you're only asking him to knock down set threes in the flow of the offense. Obviously the guy doesn't create offense for himself except fast break points off of turnovers he had a hand in.
Well I never said he was an above 40% shooter so I don’t think that’s likely. I think he will finish between 38-40% which is where he has been since joining the team.
