Woj said he doesn't think he will be moved. So he may not be as available as we would like to believe. It could be a smokescreen as well... but I think they are holding out to maybe use him in a potential BS deal.
Bogey has real defensive limitations though, which is exacerbated by the size of our backcourt (further exacerbated by the putrid effort and focus of Donovan), Royce being a second-tier defensive player, and having absolutely 0 secondary rim protection or sufficiently quick but large perimeter defender. Conley, Gobert, and Mitchell are off the table, and trading Royce would exacerbate the catastrophic weaknesses of the main unit while also not being a piece that would get us the 2-way wing that we need.
I'd keep Bogey. If we could swap Clarkson for say Grant, slot Grant as a starter and bring Bogey off the bench as pure scoring punch that would be great. Easily lift us up another level.
1) He most certainly does; When he's open. As importantly, though, he doesn't chuck.
We can't swap Clarkson for Grant though. Trust me, I'd love it too if our arguably most self-destructive rotation player returned us a player that theoretically checks off all the boxes of the player we need. Doesn't seem likely though.
Don is there when it matters most. I want to win a title - not a regular season best record
All 48 minutes matter. Bogey normally sucks on defense but he has some matchups where he is solid. Royce has not been as good this year and I think the knee is an issue. If we had a different type of perimeter defender I think they could take Royce's minutes and help. You could also move Bogey to the bench in some situation for Gay if you need rebounding.
This going to sound crazy, but teams that win the title usually place in the top 3 of their conference and are great in the regular season.
I'm not saying dump Conley for nothing. We take a season step back to take a postseason step forward
You should look at point 1... you are loud wrong there.
If you havent noticed, Lopo is the kind of goalpost moving.
Yes, Josh Richardson and Grant Williams replacing an All-Star are what moves us forward in the post-season.
Conley doesn't move us forward. He hasn't and he won't.
Cool goalpost moving.
So because Conley has suffered some untimely injuries he sucks and cant win us games, despite him putting up freaking amazing stats the past two years in the post-season?
I said the 57 point scorer screwed up on the play, but blaming that play for the loss is ignorant. He made up for it almost immediately after that.
Then call him Untimely Injury Conley instead of All Star Conley. He hasn't done **** to take us further than Rubio did.
