Not only are they banged up but they aren’t very good. It’s ok to appreciate Valancunias’s Ironman like ability to stay on the court while at the same time admit he’s entirely a liability, we’re talking about an offensive big that can’t move his feet on the same team with Z, BI, and CJ. It doesn’t fit at all, I’m going to keep screaming it but Okongwu fits this team like a glove because he will punish the opposing big by hitting open 3s from the corner if they try to sag off. Val kills space and is a very poor defender. This roster doesn’t need the offense Val provides, BI and Z can get to the cup and I’d say even better wirhout Val clogging it

How people can defend keeping Val is beyond me.
Objectively:
BI - negative defender
Z - obviously negative defender
CJ - obviously negative defender
Herb - all nba level defender
Val - negative defender
How are we supposed to win a championship with 1 positive defender. Capela has missed the last week and we’ve seen Okongwu average 19 points, 9 boards, and 1.8 blocks in that time frame. If they were only willing to accept that deal for Herb then ok maybe you don’t make it but it sucks that we have legit 0.0% of winning it all with Val

It's funny how this sweeping generalization always happens with Jonas when he has a bad game or is matchup'd out of a game.

But it's crickets when he has a great game for us, which has happened more times than bad games.
