Well the Thunder paid Enes Kanter a **** ton to come off the bench. I wouldn't say it's a position of strength, but the situation applies. So there's one, and I'm too lazy to look up the rest.
You're also ignoring 90% of what I'm saying, so I don't really see the point in continuing this with you. I don't feel like repeating the same things over and over, hoping that some intake will happen on your side.
State clearly what you think the jazz should have done with the wing position last summer.
The way I understand you, you think they should have added a free agent. (Matthews seums to be the one you favor)
So the jazz pay matthews a **** load of money. He shoots horribly, doesn't get assists, rebounds poorly, doesn't get to the line but we assume he plays good defense.
Him, hood, and hayward share the minutes.
The jazz trade burks (the younger, cheaper, statistically better player) for pg help.
Is that about right?
I actuality sincerely think that looks good on paper since matthews might be the better fit. Still a HUGE risk though that matthews is the better player short term and a really really big risk that he is better long term. Plus his contact really changed our financial flexibility going forward.
And again teams just don't pick up expensive 4th wings very often when I already have three that they like and are good, young, and on good contracts.
Your example of the thunder is a good one.
Do you think what they did (adding kanter for lots of money) was smart? Do you think it will work out going forward?
They have a huge logjam at the big position now. Why haven't they simply traded one of the bigs for a good player at another, weaker position?
