How would you feel about a Bogi/Levert swap? I think it makes Cavs really dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't keep giving away better plays to reduce cost for measly returns. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do it if it were a protected 1st. But not for a 2nd. I don't value Bogi as much as other squawkers though because I wouldn't mind AJ being given more opportunity and we have decent 3rd stringers like Culver/Martin that don't get a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get for the 1st. On the court, our already 3pt shooting and ability to spread the floor will again be diminished. Lavert is also more of the same ISO guy. Don't need more of it. 3rd stringers are 3rd stringers for a reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted January 6, 2023 Moderators Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 The biggest issues I have with LeVert are that: (1) He is a terrible 3pt shooter for a wing and we desperately need 3pt shooting. He is a career 33.5% 3pt shooter as a wing who is primarily a scorer. He shot 32.6% and 32.0% his last two seasons. Take out Bogi who is shooting 41% this season and replace it with him and that is a disaster for spacing with Trae struggling from deep, DM mediocre, JC in a world of hurt, etc. I just don't think you can be a viable team without multiple quality 3pt shooters in this era. (2) He overall is an inefficient volume scorer. He has a garbage .524% TS% for his career. That stinks. He also is less efficient than normal this year sitting at .510% TS% this season. We are complaining about Trae being at .554% TS%. Now we would be feeding shots to LaVert? Dropping from Bogi's .579% to LaVert's .510% would be brutal. Think about how JJ has struggled on offense and he is doing better than LaVert this season (.518% to .510%). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kg01 Posted January 6, 2023 Report Share Posted January 6, 2023 For Levert to be effective, you have to put the ball in his hands and let him tricky, herky, jerky dribble into a bunch-a contested shots and hope he gets hawt. Then you lose the game. Thats the cycle. Sign me up for none-a that. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
