I try to keep Rozier, along with Ty, Bam, Kel, maybe Jovic, HH and maybe Dru if he recovers fully. I am not saying trade the rest, but yes, I would be ok if we did trade any of them to address another need. That is a decent core, wouldn’t need too much more.
Don’t understand the maybe for Jovic. 21 and continues to improve, and great size. Should get stronger over time. I think Highsmith has reached his ceiling. Solid player at his price point.
I see your point but Jovic does make his share of mistakes. Still, he grew on me because of the way he bulls his way to the rim. I think that is a weapon and he will likely even get better at it. And, HH had some good point production tonite. He may have a little more to reach his ceiling. And the other one I mentioned, Dru, if he is healthy he could really become a nice player.
Agree
Rough game for Ware. To be expected. Good stuff from Bam, Rozier, Highsmith.
This one was above our pay grade. Still, there were some good individual efforts.
ty dunc bc hard to win with no stops.
mitch should have refused trade to cleve.told ainge i want to play with bam
mitchell top 5 2guard last 30 years?
Wade, Kobe, Vince, Reggie, Iverson, Harden, Ray Allen, Klay were all up there last 30 years.
vince was a sf i believe iverson was apoint wade kobe 4 sure reggie.ray and klay were better at 3s but overall players donos in that group.
Bright moments at least. Back to .500
mitchell showing up ty.
were a 500 team until pat does something
We can only hope. Every day I check the internet the minute I wake up. If I have to pee in the middle of the night I check then too.
I check almost hourly. Want to see this over already.
wares gotta work on low post game
tys having great year mitchells on a diff level
Herro has better numbers. Is Mitchell the better player? Maybe. But a whole different level this season? Not sure I can agree with that.
tys prob better shooter but athleticism handle savvy strength mitchell better
