If THJ was shooting 40% from 3 we wouldn't need him to go to the bench to get his shots.

I don’t agree.

My thinking (only 3 games in) is that the combo of Richardson, Luka and THJ is a little small. I feel like A) Richardson’s guard skills on offense and B) DFS’s shooting off of the catch complement each other enough to lessen the need for Hardaway to be in the starting lineup, whether he’s playing well or not. 

I REALLY think the team’s biggest weakness is the 4. I’m not married to DFS as a starter, but I’m not ready to give up on that, either, so I think giving him some time as the starting 3 is logical. If that works as I expect, this thing might be one starter (a 4 - either a very strong, long forward or a very quick, agile, smart big) away.

So, my thinking is that with either Hield or THJ should be a bench player. It’s only three games in, again, but if I still feel that way at the deadline, give me THJ.  OR, use THJ to acquire that 4, not to acquire the same type of player.
