IF Jrue is healthy, then Cole is expendable, especially if we're trading for someone we think will earn SF minutes and push Tyreke and possibly QPon into more backcourt minutes. As much as I like Cole, most seem to think he'll be a cap casualty next year, so if we can lock in what would essentially be a replacement draft pick for $2.5ish per year in exchange for Cole, it's a decent exchange. You essentially traded Salmons for a mid-late 1st. I'd rather have it all, but sometimes you have to give to get.

If that's the deal then you have to do it. KJ has the potential to be a stud if he continues to develop. Jump shot has good form and should improve if he works hard.

At this point I Suppose Cole is what he is. A nice player off the bench.

Initially I was worried QP would be involved which I would hate.

Yep. Gentry did say that reke will play the 1-3 positions. Maybe they are thinking reke would be able to start at pg if Jrue misses time.

He is the definition of replacement level player. You give Norris Cole up every single time if you think there is a better option available. McDaniels is a better option.

Not to you, ATL, but just in general: they can't keep their 3rd string PG because they fear the starter may get hurt again. If you're playing your 3rd string PG, things are shitty no matter who it is.
