That’s what we need. Long range bombers and guys that can create a shot

This. Guys who can shoot but also don't need the ball a lot to be effective.


I agree with this, just don't wanna be stuck in a situation like last year were our starting pg goes down and we have nobody behind him to distribute the ball

In theory Zion should be able to shoulder some of that load. The 2 guys I've seen Zion compared the most to, Larry Johnson and Blake Griffin, averaged 3.6 and 3.8 assists their rookie seasons. That's not quite as good as Boogie's 5.4 but it's not as bad as getting down to Ian Clark and E'Tuwan Moore.

Honestly didn't know that, thought he was just a prototypical big man.

Lol you think Brogdon is unrealistic?


He’s very very possible and a great fit. He’s not a max level player like Kyrie. And he’s a way better fit for this team than Irving would be.

They wont have a choice if you pay him enough..

They paid Bledsoe, they have to pay Middleton, they have to pay Lopez, they need to make a decision on Niko, and all that while fixing to have to drop 45+ a year on Giannis..

They cannot afford to pay all those guys

Go check out some highlights and scouting reports, it might change your opinion of what we need to add.

He’s possible because they have other guys they need to take care of. Middleton is going to get a big pay day. Pels could offer Brogdon somewhere around 17-20 mil per year. It would be really tough for MIL to match.

Crewz had suggested the possibility of them doing a sign and trade with us for Etwaun that they they get a decent replacement at less than half the cost. That would be a good deal for both sides.

Regardless, he’s gettable.

Zion got most of his assists on fast breaks. His ability to snag a rebound and fly down the court then either head to the basket or hitting a pass is going to be so valuable . He’s Gentry’s wet dream. Ive even seen him make that pass to corner like Lebron, Harden, Luka all do really well. Not quite their vision but it’s pretty damn good.
