Topic says it.  What you got?

 

EXHAUSTING.

 

Insanity.

Repeatedly trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results. 

A Trae-led team will never win an NBA title. Too many holes in his game. Too fragile. Too inconsistent. Too specific of a perfectly constructed support system needed for him to be successful.

Time to move on and build around the core of DM, JJ, and OO. Move Trae and CC for whatever you can get. Let Bey walk. And implement offensive and defensive systems that take advantage of our roster strengths and can deliver results.

Trae maybe a lot of things....FRAGILE isn't one of them.  Then in the next sentence you have JJ who can't stop spraining his ankle and OO who can't play a full season since he has been drafted.  But sure....carry on.

Trae has missed 25% of the season in half of the seasons he's been in the league.

Re: JJ and OO, they're also not taking up $40M/yr in cap space and #1 options.

2018-19 Played in 81 of 82 games - missed 1.3% of the season

2019-20 Played in 60 of 67 games - missed 10.4% of the season

2020-21 Played in 63 of 72 games - missed 13.7% of the season

2021-22 Played in 76 of 82 games - missed 7.3% of the season

2022-23 Played in 73 of 82 games - missed 11% of the season

2023-24 Played in 54 of 82 games - missed 34% of the season

 

Yeah, I'm thinking you've got a big problem with your math if you think your statement is true.  Probably you think 2019-20 and 2020-21 were 82 game seasons which they were not.

I have no issue if someone doesn't like Trae...but at least be factual and honest.

I think anyone that believes we do not need an upgrade at the Center position is fooling themselves.  Maybe that Edey.  Maybe that Clingan. Maybe that's an existing NBA player.  I don't know, but I do know that Clint was way too inconsistent this year.  And with the current construction of the team, we need our center, whomever they are, to be consistently really good.  

According to NBA.com's Player Impact Estimate (not perfect but best I got), Clint ranks 34th among NBA Centers in impact for the year.  Bruno ranks 69th and OO ranks 71st.  To be blunt, that sucks out loud for your Center rotation for the year.
