You could be right. I'm not a big fan of any of the free agent guards though. Personally I hope that we target a guard(s) in the draft. I've said this before, but I would try to get both Cason Wallace and Anthony Black. I think one of those will hit for sure, and could potentially play together as well.
Please no. Too short
I'm having a hard time figuring out why so many Raptors fans seemingly hate him. Personally I dont see the wrinkles they see, and his numbers look solid accross the board even if he has a bit of a down year from 3P this year.
His next deal will be rough... his play and defense have already fallen off a bit. Don't do it.
Gotta pin it on someone, when the expected win total was 48 and battling for homefield advantage in the playoffs. The hope of fans probably even an improvement on that. Happens a lot with underperforming teams.
I love Jevon Carter. Still a plus defender.
Its because they want the rock in Scotty B's hands . His ability to run the offense as a point forward could be fringe Joker from the post- if the guards he has out there, are both elite shooters instead of undersized floor generals.
Agreed. Mike always made others better and I think that is what great PG's do. Obviously elite players in general do so but it is key at the PG position if you want to compete.
Ja Morant and Trae Young are great facilitators and make others better so it does exist. But it is not as important is it used to be unless you have a team full of bums who cannot create for themselves at all I'd rather have Luka or Steph who are score first facilitators.
Yeah, that would be the idea. Sign a FVV to a 3 or 4 year deal, draft a Black/Wallace and hope they take the reigns eventually.
Not a fan of small guards either, but hes the best available by a country mile (that we have a chance at signing) as far as PGs go.
As far as I know Raptors fans love FVV.
If you want FVV realize he likely signs for 4/120M… rumor has it he had turned down the Raps extension at like 4/114.
They use CP in a sign and trade but wouldn’t really have much to offer in the way of a sweetener. So unless CP has value on his own it would be tough.
I lean towards agreeing with you. Wouldn't be upset at it though. I think generally we want to use the space to sign talent where we can and figure it out later. The back end of his deal would be soft with the rising cap. I'm kind of cap illiterate though, so I really don't know who the Jazz would be competing with to sign him, obviously the Raptors, but I don't know who else has money out there and needs a PG.
