tmac Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 While I love the move to get Big Dog just like everyone else, I am concerned about our ballhandling abilities. With our projected starting lineup, JT basically has no help to get the ball up the court. DJ is not a good ballhandler at all, and Glover doesn't play defense. I think a good defensive minded 2 with decent ballhandling skills is a definate need with our lineup. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted August 5, 2002 Premium Member Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Nope. JT has to learn to be the man just like: Van Exel, Cassell, Payton, and Isiah Thomas. If he has trouble handling the ball, I think that Lon will probably bring out E-Dump on occassion. Hopefully though, Our offense runs plays.

tmac Posted August 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Those guys for the most part had good ballhandling two's to help them. JT does not have that help.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted August 5, 2002 Premium Member Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Van Exel in Denver? GP in Seattle? When? Last yr maybe but for most of his career he's had some horrid ball handling 2s... Nate McMillan? However.... Just to wet your tongue a little on this issue of should we trade for a SG... I have a thought. Nazr to Seattle for Barry. Sign Willis and Oakley. JT/DD Barry/DJ/DG Big Dog/CC SAR/Oakley/Hendu Theo/Willis Eat the contract of Email. Seattle does it for a C/Pf. Also it creates space for Desmond Mason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmac Posted August 5, 2002 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Was actually thinking of NVE in LA(E.Jones)...Would not want to pattern ourselves after the recent Denver teams... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawksfreak Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 We ned to get some kind of defensive stopper! Adding The Big Oak and Kevin Willis will not only do that we will have some veterans to run the team. Also I think Ira is going to be re-signed and Udonis Haslem is preety much out of the picture.
