Who plays PG? Jrue? If so, what have you seen from him that makes you think he will ever be on the floor?

Reke needs to be coached. 1 year of Cal, Sac-town dumpster fire and Monty dumpster fire. Give him a year under a solid coach in the NBA.

Really? Holiday started at the beginning of the year, you know the part where we had one of the toughest schedules in the league and had 3 fewer NBA level players on the roster. Tyreke had the benefit of starting during the softer part of the schedule and with Cunningham/Pondexter/Cole backing him up instead of Rivers/Salmons.

I don't understand why Evans gets all the hate. He's frustrating at times but he was way more controlled as our PG and our offense played better


He only knows how to do 1 thing, attack the basket. If they take that trick away from him our offense stagnates into him dribbling the clock out while other guys try and get open. I want to keep Tyreke around as the 6th man. $10 for a guy that can be a 6th man and start at 3 positions is a pretty good deal IMO. I just don't want him to be the primary offense runner. He played faster before that responsibility made him have to think all the time.

If Jrue's last name was Gordon he would be getting a load of hate from our fans. I guess he gets a pass for being injury plagued bc he's affable? Idk. I just don't see how a guy who can't stay on the floor is viewed as so valuable


Wait until next season. If he's healthy then there's no reason to turn on him. If he's not then I think they will, there was actually plenty of Holiday hate this year. Anyone that didn't like the trade to get him started acting like we traded for an injury prone player just so they could take another jab at a move they didn't like. This board will be miserable with Noel pining if Holiday can't get it together.

If EG can get 25 mil over 3 years versus taking a risk over 1,why SHOULDN'T he consider it.




Because he will get more than $5M per year under the new cap. He would be giving money away and we really don't benefit from it, either. Dropping $4M below the cap leaves us with less flexibility than staying over and getting exceptions
