Bledsoe and Reddick need to be moved sooner than later.

Lonzo has been alright the past few games despite losses...

But he logged ZERO FT attempts in each of the last two games. That really cannot happen.

Everyone wants to constantly focus on what he doesn't do and ignore what he does.

Because people are not viewing him on his current contract. They’re viewing him on his probably near max contract that he’ll want. And it’s fair to not want to pay 20mil a year for a 6’6” guard who refuses to drive and get to the line.

I don’t care if he shoots free throws if he hits 3’s like that

Yes, Lonzo has been mostly fine. He isn’t the problem for the most part. I do have a problem with a starting Guard not getting to the line at all though. That is an issue.

Bledsoe has been absolutely abysmal.

Ball is maddeningly inconsistent, bled just seems not to give a frick.

I agree, and I think Kira can be that guy eventually. 5-6 FTA per game

Lonzo has never been and definitely won’t be, especially if this new kinda 3 & D role catches on.

It is hard to start Hart at guard or a wing spot when he is basically your best backup 4.

Because Kira is lightning quick and is pretty fearless when taking it inside. There are very few defenders that will be able to stay in front of him one on one when he’s reached his full form. It’s a skill set we can absolutely utilize.

Even a guy like Lonzo that takes on a 3&D should be able to get the line. There’s an art form to drawing fouls from that spot and Zo doesn’t have that.

Ehhhh they already have Smart in an almost identical role. They have the TPE but I THINK are around 19 from the hard cap line? Somewhere around there. They aren’t going to get hardcapped for Eric Bledsoe.

Edit: they are 19.5 from the Hard Cap. Not getting hard capped for Bledsoe.

yes because his up for a big contract that he’s not worth. Hence why people point out the major negatives of his game

So hard to judge ball with his inconsistency but his last stretch of games might be the best of his career

No one knows what contract he will get. Hopefully if his demands are too high, he will be traded. Adams is scheduled to make $65 million over the next 3 seasons (average of nearly $22 million a year including $30 million this year). I do not see the complaints about his negatives in nearly the capacity that I see about Ball. I think much of the hate towards Ball come from his early years and his dad's obnoxious involvement.
