Dennis Lindsey's Biggest Error

Like most of you, I wanted Ty to stop playing Al and Milsap so Enes and Favors could show what they were capable of doing. And in many ways we were wrong.

So I am kind of a hypocrite for criticizing Lindsey now for doing exactly what I wanted him to do then.

I like that the rules of fandom allow me to so irrational and nearly free from consequences.

The way that Sap has developed, it would've been the absolute perfect pairing. We chose to keep the wrong guy.

I agree for the offense. If you don't recognize what our defense and rebounding would lose with Millsap over Favors, I'm not sure what else to say.
 
hindsight is 20/20. hayward and milsap are the two big ones to me. regarding allen, he would not have lasted much longer in the first round much less fallen to the 2nd. there were teams trying to trade with and ahead of utah to get him. he would have been picked by one of lakers, philly, boston, GSW. chicago and indiana would've considered him at 22 or 23 as well.

I do, but I'm willing to sacrifice some of that based on his overall game and non-stop hustle.
 
I said from the beginning that either Kanter or Favors should go so Millsap could play at PF. I have been saying for years that Favors is a center and not a great fit here as a PF.

I also thought Hayward was overrated. However, he could have been great with Millsap being more of the leader with Gobert as the center. Just dream of a scenario where we keep everybody and draft Mitchell.

PG?
Mitchell
Hayward
Millsap
Gobert

That starting lineup is nasty.

Hate all you want but Millsap was amazing for a while there. Hell, he had a 16.8ppg and 8.8rpg season for us when we never featured the guy.

Chemistry is what made us streak to the playoffs last year. Mirotic wouldn't have added wins to that historic run. Last year was a blast. Wouldn't trade it for a player like Niko.

Biggest mistake - coddling Hayward like a desperate lover.
 
Limitations compared to who lol? Favors? Hahahahaha. Millsap is better at everything. Litetally everything. Millsap was a top 3-5 PF for 5 years. But limited.

Que eyeroll

I’m glad some are questioning... I think he’s good but got so much grief for suggesting minor moves were bad in the past. He ain’t perfect... I do like that he’s fairly straight forward and direct about it most of the time.

Over their careers Favors is shooting a higher eFG%, has equal rebounding in fewer minutes/game, has more blocks and fewer turnovers. Aren't those part of everything?
 
Lindsey top 3 GM? he spent 5 picks for a play and there is no play, he lost Hayward and Millsap to zero, he wanted to offer 88 million to Hill, we did not, except Ingles, a real shooter, he did not sign for Mirotic when he was Fa, and did not take Bjelica who was free, only FA taken in 5 years was the 35 Joe Johnson .. if he is top 3 Morey, Ainge, Buford, Ujiri, Myers are aliens?
