Ideal PG for this roster
So I think we all hope Teague moves on either via trade or opting out this summer. Let's not turn this into a Teague discussion, but rather let's discuss who would be a good fit going forward with the core guys, Towns, Covington, Wiggins, Okogie, & Saric. I sort of dismiss everyone else on the roster as eithetr expendable or not worthy of starting long term.
2019 FA pg's:
Kyrie (PO) - no chance
Kemba (UFA) - would be awesome, but seems highly unlikely
Dragic (PO) - I've always been a fan, but he's probably peaked and would probably need 3 years for too much $$$
Bledsoe (UFA) - Flip tried to trade for him (allegedly), personally not a huge fan. I feel like he's a bit of a head case and a chucker
Rozier (RFA) - I'd be quite interested in making an offer, but do we have enough room to outbid other teams? The Celtics could end up matching anyway.
D'Angelo Russell (RFA) - He's having a pretty good year statistically on a bad team. 18/5. Maturity issues known. I'd actually be interested. Also he has that fun clip watching Blake dunk...."he didn't even stretch tho...dohhhhhh."
Ricky Buckets - doubt he's coming back here, but this place would have a group boner if he did. If Utah heats up the 2nd half again, they'll resign him anyway.
Dinwiddle (UFA) - I know nothing about him
Collison (UFA) - Pass
Beverley (UFA)- I'd be interested. Just keep stacking up that defense.
Brogdon (RFA) - Eh
Isiah Thomas (UFA) - Pass
Rondo (UFA) - Pass
McConnell (UFA) - maybe some interest
Trade candidates -
John Wall - high risk, maybe high reward
Lillard - my dream candidate, but I don't think we have the resources to get him. I'd make multiple picks and anyone but Towns and Cov available.
Jrue - if the Pels move on from Davis when he says he won't take the super max, they may blow that team up. I'd send a 1st their way for Holiday.
Conley - Another dream candidate. $32 mil and player option for $34 mil...probably have to send Wiggns or Dieng and too many 1st's for it to work.
Who am I missing? JJ Moxie? Just playin.

If we could get Beverley I'd be pretty stoked.
The guys listed in your trade candidates area are just not attainable or I wouldn't touch in John Wall.

-McConnell is underrated because he’s stuck behind Simmons. He played well last playoffs. Got Simmons benched some 4th quarters, I believe.
-Could draft one but I think we need the athletic C more and most young PGs take time.
We need a 3&D type PG. Someone to run the offense.

I doubt anything really changes. Teague probably wont opt out and Thibs will sign Rose to an extension.

Thibs won’t want to trade Teague to set us up better going forward.

The guy dribbles the fuck out of the ball and then passes it with 2 seconds on the shot clock.

Rubio on his 3 point 10 assist nights > Teague when he does it.
The biggest reason is that Rubio didn't dominate the ball and still could at the very least run an offense.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
We need a guy that can stay in front of a PG. I like to see Bledsoe and Rozier. We don't need a star in that position...
If the starters are KAT, Saric, RoCo and Wiggins, then I could see (puke in my mouth a little bit..) Rubio coming back for 25 mpg at a vet minimum price. Is he worth more than that across the league???

Not gonna take the time to go back and check, but pretty sure the majority of the hoops rubes here were in favor of getting Teague.....

With Emmanuel Mudiay playing well for the Knicks, Im really intrigued with Frank Ntilikina as a possibility.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
I'd def take Beverly over Teague in a heartbeat. But is he ideal? At least specifically in terms of being a title contender?
Our wings in Wig/Cov lack handle to say the least. Beverly is fine in the pick and roll but isn't really a 'creator' in terms of drive and kick or get his own shot guy.
It's nitpicky but I don't think he's ideal in terms of cranking up our offense. Of course I'd take him in a heartbeat if he came here but i doubt were on the radar

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
whoever we get, i want him to be an up and comer, rather than a someone floating on their reputation but not really all that much anymore. which is what we got in teague. $19M a year for a former all-star? yeah... okay... swallow hard... let's do it! when, in reality, the allstar bit was an aberration and jeff doesn't even approach all-star quality. and then we're stuck with the $19M bit.
much rather take a flyer on a guy who is on the rise, is still a question mark but looks like a good bet, and can be had for $19M... for three years, not one.

i'll have to look - but i've said before that i think satoransky would be a good fit with our guys - plus i think he's ready to take the next step.witljon wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 6:22 pmFrank Ntilikina?somuchyummy wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 6:12 pm whoever we get, i want him to be an up and comer, rather than a someone floating on their reputation but not really all that much anymore. which is what we got in teague. $19M a year for a former all-star? yeah... okay... swallow hard... let's do it! when, in reality, the allstar bit was an aberration and jeff doesn't even approach all-star quality. and then we're stuck with the $19M bit.

Rubio isn't the answer and neither is Teague... he marginally better if he ever shoots.

Most people hated the signing only because we got rid of Rubio to do it. On its own merit at the time it seemed fine to me and just hasn't worked out that well.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
A 3&D PG would be ideal. Initiate the offense, cut/space/screen, then spot up. And lock down the opposing PG. Basically what Kirk Hinrich, Avery Bradley, Patrick Beverley, George Hill were at the top of their game.

I'd take Collison or Joseph from IND. Looks like they are looking to move one, or both.
