    Tari is just a very good defender - who makes a lot of stupid decisions and can't dribble to save his life, nor can he create.

    If he had a handle he would elevate himself, but he doesn't and his shooting is meh.

    I really like him, but just think we can't pay him......when we have DFS, and Amen too - there is room for really only 1.

    Early season Tari looked so promising but the late season Tari (as of now) is looking concerning. The average of the two is most likely the real Tari and that's not good enough for a starting job. He should have cashed in his contract before the season and will most likely loose his gamble by the end of this season.

    Trade Tari Eason and rebuild again.

    Many more players need to be traded. The whole Coaching Staff needs to be Fired.

    The NBA GMs don't like overpaying for Broken Bone Players.

    Alright, that was your last strike. I don’t like to put people on ignore but you can’t even understand English.

    lol he’s no longer shooting 40% which was what you were hanging your hat on - funny you stopped commenting in this thread as his slumped continued - it’s easier for you to have said “ If Tari continues or returns to form then I prefer him as the starter (even tho over Bari is not feasible”

    There is only a sign and trade possibility now, which is improbable unless he turns it around quickly.

    Tari's 3-point stroke has always been streaky. The difference is this year, his hot "streak" lasted ~50 games, which is crazy and was great while it lasted.

    Unfortunately, he's completely lost it in March. Most of the time, you can see his shot is off the second it leaves his hand (including the two-point shots).

    He still needs to head back to the bench

    He is the modern Corey Brewer... drop 50+ one game then go on a 10 game slump.

    He is damaged that is why.

    When that surgery was announced, I thought his Star Power was finished and his career will be short.
