Yeah… didn’t like the Payne trade at the time. Like it even less now.Letting go of Payne really hurt us. I’m not saying we need a pg, but Payne was a legit player on both ends. He’s a backup who is capable of starting as well.
We’d likely see something like
Payne
Book/allen
KD
KBD
Big Nurk
Gordon, yuta and Eubanks would still come off the bench.
Hindsight but still, just sayin.
And that’s not to say Payne is any great shakes. But with our big 3s penchant for injuries and no legit PG on the roster, didn’t make any sense to me to give him away for money.
