And while there may be stats that paint Lamelo in a good light, he isn’t a serious player, both offensively and defensively.
Nico is targeting defensive oriented guys first too, and Lamelo doesn’t fit that at all.
Honestly im wondering if we are going to look for a SG that has point guard qualities and move Kyrie to the PG position now.
Who do you have in mind? The only name I've seen as a realistic target is Collin Sexton. Which still requires Gafford and Naji outgoing most likely. It doesn't move the needle for me personally and is the shakeup you don't want but will require. That's why I tried to get creative for LaMelo, whom I'm not even a big fan of, but think he fills the perceived need. His defense is much better this year.
Sigh...
