Just get a legit point guard to orchestrate the offense and it’ll all come together.



The fact of the matter is if we give BI a 30% max, we will be a small market tax team while Zion is only 24 with limited ability to improve. I don't care about Benson's money, but she does. Reality of the situation is she will only pay the tax if we are close to a championship.

We are not close to a championship with Ingram as our #2 to Zion. Signing BI to a max extension just puts an anchor arouind our neck and makes us desperate to win now. We'll make some bad trades for a center and we'll never make it past the 2nd round.

What I'm worried about is this...


The odds we trade BI for a #2 are pretty low. I'm worried we don't trade BI because losing BI would mean we have no #2.

The problem with this is BI is already not good enough to be a #2, so we already right now do not have a #2, so the idea of not making a trade because we wouldn't have a #2 just doesn't make sense.

Just really scared with that meshing with Griff's history about reluctance to pull a trade unless he thinks he's absolutely getting the win compared to sometimes where you just have to pull the trigger and get best value possible.
