Butler’s health issue has to be driving him down the board. Cam Thomas is a straight up bucket, I feel like he will be putting up 15-17 ppg by year two.

I didn’t like it much but with who we have gotten and what we have gotten for Westbrook is crazy! I haven’t seen this much depth on the wizards in a long time. No clue how the Depth chart will fill out! I believe we now have some cap room as well! will be interesting if we try to move Bertrans since we now have a sharp shooter in kispert as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 Does Jared Butler fall to us at 31? Could be a big time steal as back up PG to develop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they move Bertans. Really seems to me that it would be a bad trade for us bc his salary doesn’t match his production. We’d probably have to take a bad contract back and for that we should just hold onto Bertans who’s basically automatic off the bench as a 3-pt shooter.

e16bball Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) Assuming Todd is actually their pick, it really is crazy how much they just absolutely refuse to take guards in the draft. Since taking Beal in 2012, they have not drafted a single guard that has played a single game in a Wizards uniform. That’s insane. It was one thing when you had Wall/Beal and were trying to build around them — but that dream has been dead for years, and there’s still not a single guard you think worth your time?

High upside and could slide right in behind holiday. And be cost effective PGs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like his shooting ability and toughness, but the upside is with Isaiah Todd obviously, I see some Chris Bosh is his game. As for the trade: So, that’s why the trade isn’t been officially reported yet. Edited July 30, 2021 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah gotcha, they just announced it on the draft too. we have a ton of forwards/ centers right now, could of used a PG SF/PF, Kuzma, Bertans, Avdija, Hachimura, Kispert, Gill, Hutchinson PF/C Bryant, Gafford, Todd, Harrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course that doesn’t really change your point. I definitely think Avdija can play as a point forward position on the 2nd unit, really that’s what best fits him and his skill set. I think Hutchinson can also play SG, he’s certainly athletic enough. I don’t know what the Wizards are going to do at PG beyond Holiday. I have a Skins & Pacers fan from Indiana arguing with me on Twitter that Holiday is awful & should only be a back of the roster player which, I disagree with. I see Holiday as a young/inconsistent developing PG. As I told the dude on Twitter, If Ben Standing likes the trade, I like it. Plus, they didn’t lose anything by trading back. They were able to draft Isaiah Todd at 31 who’s arguably a better prospect than Isaiah Jackson who they originally took at 22. So Holiday + Todd > Jackson. I really hope the Wizards sign Dinwiddie or Schroeder. They’d be a good running mate for Beal. If not, bringing back Neto would be a good thing, then he, Holiday and Cassius Winston can battle it out for the starting PG spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
