Yeah I've been saying all those things, I just don't think it fixes much because it creates almost as much of a weakness elsewhere. That weakness and the current weakness at PG are both improved but without a return to health of Beal and Okogie, it really won't change things for us. And even if we get those guys back, with or without that trade, it still leaves us well short of our goal if we can't find a way to get consistent help from that borderline group of Metu, KBD, Yuta, Goodwin, Little, Saben and Bol Bol. We need two of them to play like they belong in the rotation rather than the cheerleader section.We need a guard who can defend their position, we need a guard who can be a steady ball handler and we need someone to help run the offense late so the first instinct isn't "ISO BALL TIME!"
He checks all those boxes.
Other problems would still remain, but this would be a help.
Don't get me wrong, I'd still make that trade, I just think we're still going to be frusrated by this group.
