Because I believe that Tari Eason will quickly surpass him firstly, and secondly I just don't believe he is a good player. The Grizzlies, who are...
It will still be way more than he is worth as a player and he won't have a place on this team in two years.
Tari will be better than him within two years and Brooks' contract will be an albatross - that we will have to attach assets to get rid of after a...
My point is that I believe we have a player on the roster (Eason/Jabari) that have potential to grow into team leaders on D. Eason was already...
That's all fine and good, but being a better on-ball defender doesn't mean better player overall. And we have guys that under Ime could develop...
Haha okay. Literally almost any metric we have if not all agrees with me but alright. I already said that Brooks was a better on-ball defender....
Lol you are welcome to contribute something! I'd go look at the numbers first though.
I believe so, yes. Many advanced metrics also indicate that which I posted on a couple of threads already. I think on-ball defense is the only...
They would be third stringers if the rotation is healthy, sure, but there was literally no reason to give them away for free and especially not to...
Lol fancy analytics. Brooks was a lot better the year he averaged 25ppg in that one playoff series, for sure. KMJ is not as good as he was then....
Nothing wrong with bringing KMJ off the bench. Tari was almost as good as Brooks last year and may be better this year.
That statement has nothing to do with LeBron and what went on in the playoffs (although that doesn't hurt his cause). Just look at their numbers...
Care to elaborate as to why that's wild? Here are some numbers from last season: Win Shares: Brooks: 1.6 KMJ: 4.9 Box Plus Minus: Brooks:...
KJ is not a good defender I'll grant you but you really don't think a better defensive coach could get more out of him? All of the advanced...
The problem is they used a lot of that money on a significant downgrade at the wing position from what they already had (KMJ) and traded him away...
I give the offseason a C so far and the only reason it's not an F is getting the best non-diva Kyrie free agent PG which was our biggest position...
I am excited about FVV but don't care for the other additions. Minimum I think this team will win 29-31 games. Hopefully more if we get some...
I completely agree that we shouldn't judge any of our young players (including KPJ) until we see them play for a real coach. But the bolded is...
Right now I'd guess FVV/Amen Green/KPJ Brooks/Tari Jabari/Tate Sengun/Jock If Green doesn't take another step this year I could see him coming...
We would have been better off just playing KJ instead. Let Ime teach him some defense. KJ is unquestionably the superior player.
