I agree. We need more professionals who can provide solid minutes with consistent results. We have too many young projects and not enough guys we can trust. I’m fine keeping NAW, but I’m not ok keeping NAW, Jax, Kira, Didi and Naji. All are young and are getting small minutes. You can’t take up so many roster spots with projects.

The difference between NAW and Jaxson is that Nickeil works very hard, and Jaxson does not.

Nickeil represents the organization well. Jaxson tells the league to suck his d**k and gets arrested when people think that he's a threat to beat up his girlfriend.

The fact that Hayes is on the block now means that Willie Green is ready to move on from him, and that says a lot.

previously it was thought that getting high ceiling picks was best way to achieve escape velocity from mediocrity.
now that they are all busts we wish pels had memphis bench. a lot of decent but low ceiling guys who will produce in an expected manner. slo mo and tyus jones are both on expiring deals.
tyus has league best assist to turnovers, two years in row.
deal for jones. he can run the half court like a pro the rest of the year. slo mo will cost to keep but he plays defense and can play point forward.
temporary morant absence may increase jones price.
hes just whats needed for pels to have shot at playin.
