re: Alvin Gentry Year End Interview

Turner is a guy who can do a little bit of everything okay. Yes, he is a lesser version of Evans. He also would fit much more comfortably off the bench playing ~25 mpg, also known as the role the team said it wanted Evans to play. If he's available for under 8 figures, he's an interesting option. Much more than $10M and no thank you.

I do think they should consider moving Evans. They don't have to or anything, but I think he might be an addition by subtraction type move

We won 45 games with him running the point. In the 2 biggest games of the season against okc he has 22/15/10 and the final game against the Spurs has 19/11. How the frick it's addition by subtraction. Like did last season just not happen? Am I in some weird twilight zone where I only remember it? Evans is not the perfect player but he damn sure is talented and makes us better currently. I've seen this guy beat top team with scrubs around him. Stop making assumptions on this season about fit. Even Gentry said it was a wash because he didn't play in training camp and barely played enough to pick up the system. Until we get a ball dominate star their is no need to move Evans. Complain about his usage Jrue beat that this year, Empty stats the 2 best season of Jrue's career the teams have losing records. So unless we are trading him for a player that makes us better or we draft Ben Simmons people need to chill with that dumb talk and watch the season. This dude bust his arse on the floor last season. He was even getting his knee drained damn near everyday to stay on this floor to help this team win. So how can some people even question this guy and claim he's for himself or we're better with out him. I'm not saying Tyreke is better than Jrue because Jrue is a better fit for most teams but Jure has shown us absolutely nothing since we traded for him. We were below .500 the first half of last season with him putting up meh numbers. He has shown nothing but some reason he's been highly touted as a untouchable great player who will help lead us to wins. It's year 3 and I have yet to see that guy. Again I'm not saying Reke is better but Tyreke has shown way more the Jrue has since being here.
