He’s got a lot of work to do there. Very Westbrookish with his passing. He is as good a facilitator as we have seen is a long time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he has 2 other teammates with a TOV% above 20% and those two had it higher than him. Leads to me like it possibly could be some of his teammates faults at creating the turnovers. I don’t think his TOs are strictly bad or irresponsible passing. If the Cavs are picking #2 he has to be the pick and they have to look on how to upgrade to a better and true 2guard Watch him play don't just read stats. Sure he’s great at making passes but he takes a lot of risks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just reading stats. Just trying to bring some context to the arguement He lead the nation in assist. He had 64 more assists then the #2 guy who played 3 more games. The dude is an elite facilitator. Just because he takes risks with the ball doesn’t make him any less of a facilitator. Prolly can say that he is such a great facilitator that he takes the chances to make the play for his teammate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I just wish Ja was taller. His size and lack of length will concern me when he has to defend taller guys, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioG Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 If we get Zion we should CONSIDER trading for Mike Conley Jr. Unless we want to give up our 2020 1st, we need to try to rope in a 3rd team willing to part with a 1st. The best bet would be Charlotte. Cleveland: Conley Jr, Kidd-Glichrist, Biyambo Charlotte: Thompson, Clarkson Memphis: 2019 Char 1st, Top 15 protected 2020 Cle 1st, 2021 Cle 2nd, Brandon Knight, Henson & JR Smith Sexton - Conley - Osman - Zion - Love/Zizic Delly - Nwaba - Kidd Glichrist/Staskus - Nance Jr - Biyambo (we can stretch waive if need be) Reasoning: Memphis gets assets plus 2 expiring relatively young guys who may or may not develop Charlotte gets a big who can rebound and if TT can play like he did early on this year, some scoring in the paint. JC will be a great bench scorer. Cleveland gets 2 expiring contracts of defenders and a top guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m actually impressed with his ability to play bigger than his listed size. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but you know he is excited to be done with basically in April instead of May for once i could see next season being his last good season for what we expect from Lebron Standarda. He is going to go into the season a lot fresher because of no playoffs and the Lakers will improve the team around him Edited March 23, 2019 by buno67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both this years and next years are both top 10 protected and if they don't get 2020 then it converts to 2 2nd rounders. At least that is how I remember it, I'm about 95% sure.

candyman93 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Ja’s teammates suck. FSU’s size and depth are too much. That’s usually what happens when these small schools play power 5 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) Perfect example is this mfiondu kabengele kid. He’s average af for a college big man, but Murray State makes him look like Wilt Chamberlin. Zion and RJ crapped on these dudes a few days ago.
