Oh great. Midrange shooting. That’s the ticket.
And who are we getting that will take a fraction of $4.7 million that is a better player than Jae? And you know they’ll sign how? Will they hustle and D up also? Will they be the first to backup their teammates in a scuffle? Will they wear their jersey with pride?
I never said anything about a fraction of his price, I said we could find a better spot up shooter which is mainly all Jae is. Jae is also owed more than 4.7 next year. He is owed 7.8 million.
Yes, mid range shooting is a valuable tool. It opens up the court as well. Opening up the court and spacing is more than just shooting 3s. Also you ignored all the other things he is better at. Which I would say Favors is better at everything except shooting 3s but honestly that could change, and ball handling skills. Plus Jae shot 6.5 3s a game at below league average. We might have been better off if he shot way less...
As far as show up to backup a teammate in a scuffle and wear the Jersey with pride IDGAF. I want us to win, those things are meh. Kawhi didnt do those and things turned out alright for the Raptors.
But to answer the question, Mike Scott to name one person but there are many others.
