Yeah. Pretty much nailed. it.
He deserves it, too. He's been a pro about this. Time to figure out a way to get him out of that dumpster fire.
I disagree with your description of Horford, but agree that his value may never be higher than it is right now.
He's also now one of the better three point shooters on the team. Top 5, which is buoyed by his high FG%. Anyway, point stands... if you can get a great package for him... make a move.
Yeah, he's an operator. My only question is -- what's the goal for Danny? One star is certainly not enough to make you a contender, and there aren't enough top-flight talents on the team to entice free agents.
So do you try to make a move for a star-ish level player, and hope to draw one in? Hope you can sign two (there aren't really two available to you guys this offseason) -- or bank on the draft, give it a year, and chase 2017 players?
A lot of draft picks, a lot of options, but no definite direction -- though I'm sure Ainge will clear that up over the next 4 months.
Nah. He's not a star, and not a prospect. He's a good player. He doesn't defend well and he's prone to lapses. He shoots a low percentage from the floor, which may be helped by improving 3pt rates...
That being said, he's in his prime. He's been healthy, and he can make plays. I don't think teams are going to see untapped potential in him, but I do think they see somebody who could be a good point guard for their team for the next 3-4 seasons. Only problem is, his contract is UP halfway thru that. IF he had 3 years left on his deal... I'd say he's really good value. With 1.5 left... he's only good value.
at the disrespect of touch me.
Paul Millsap? That wasn't part of the deal.
