Building Around Cooper: A Backward-Looking Thought Experiment

[vfromlmf]

I agree with fit I just think this team has bigger problems than PJ’s fit. One of those problems is PJ is playing like crap right now and I don’t think it’s Cooper Flagg’s fault. The other big and probably related problem is they’re playing borderline NBA guards. And yet another problem is Lively is hurt, Gafford is playing like crap and we’ve run Powell and a two-way for rotation minutes over most of the year. And yet another problem bigger than PJ is Klay and Martin are getting major rotation minutes.

When I think about fit and look at the 6 rotation wings, who “fits” best next to Flagg?

You might say Christie because he shoots 3s. But I might counter that Christie looks like Luke Kennard.

PJ has been a high minute starter on a Finals team. I know he has it in him. You can try to upgrade him but there are bigger fish to fry IMHO.
