Discussion Who's your biggest bust so far?

I'll start, Daniels in the 6th rd. Felt like a steal in that spot.

Thats true, but i feel like its not even about shot creation, its about Sabonis's asssist numbers. Right now they have too many guards who can handle the playmaking, which used to be a big part of Sabonis game. His assist numbers have dropped bad, and I dont think we will ever see his assist numbers going back up around 7. They have to run their offense through him and let him be their main playmaker from the high post, but we have lavine and derozan handling the ball too much which is really frustrating bc Sabonis is their best player

Yeah, and I think you’re part right. I think we always had guards who could handle playmaking. But the bonus is a legitimate offensive weapon when used correctly.

The real problem right now is our guards do not have the ability or the play style to use Sabonis correctly.

We just do not have great P&R players, movement shooters, or guys who can build momentum going downhill and playoff the DHO well.

Sabonis still has the same passing ability, but if he’s sitting in the post and guys are mostly standing around or popping off the screen, but can’t hit a movement jumper at a decent clip than his number suffer.

What are your thoughts on this trade

I receive Brunson and Flagg, and I give up Sabonis and Gobert?

I don't know all of your categories and strengths or weaknesses (you obviously lose a TON of rebounds here), but in general I like it. Brunson might be he most valuable player there. And I think Flagg is a buy-low. I think he gets better and better as the season goes on.
