At the same time he's like what Devin used to be in his second stint here, just a bigger, better version of that. A quick guard who is probably at his best alongside other ballhandlers and plays better defense than the the rest of the army of unathletic 6'2-or-smaller guards we have.(08-07-2020, 08:26 AM)JamesConway Wrote: Delon wasn't great either, but he's at least available to play with decent stats
You can't watch a game and say thatDelon is horrible on offense and no where near a difference maker on defense. I don't care what stats say. He is killing our offense by not taking open shots.

Perhaps DFS could go against George, but THJ was certainly just overpowered. It would take a bigger body for Kawhi. I would try Maxi or Luka. I am worried how Seth will be able to play against this big team
I'm not argueing that he's outperforming his deal by a large margin but I'm pretty confident in saying that it shouldn't be overly difficult to dump his contract when needed to. Maybe you gotta add a mid 2nd but certainly nothing of great value. He's too productive & durable to be much of an issue.
I agree Delon is fine as an MLE-level player altho we were hoping for more than that and his fit isn't great. I have a hard time picturing him on this team going forward. Donnie thought Wright would be in the starting guard spot next to Luka, adding defense along with playmaking. It just hasn't materialized and he isn't amazing off the bench either. He does flash from time to time but overall he's been a disappointment. He might be a little overpaid but not terrible. I think a lot of it is that he doesn't fit well in Rick's system. I imagine Wright would do better in a system where he gets to hold the ball more and make plays, perhaps off the bench. Here there is a lot of ball movement so you have to figure out what to do off-ball.

Remember our genius GM's passed on TJ Warren who Phoenix was just giving away for nothing on draft night. Another genius MBT move was not even tire-kicking Malcolm Brogdon who would have made the Mavs a legit contender this year.
