Gotdamn Boston culo blasted these nygga to smithereens, in they own house--it wasn't even close as the final score indicates. Gobert was getting lost like crazy, Derrick Favors look like Mikkey Rocks you forget the dude even out there. Like a slightly bigger and more efficient Marvin Williams in Charlotte.

Outside Rodney Hood they finally healthy right? I thought that was their main detriment. Yeah they gon be the 4-5 seed, but you look at their roster and it's SOLID....but you can't help but feel something is missing.

I was thinking maybe getting a big time 3 and playing Hayward at the 2 maybe? Maybe trade for Jae Crowder? Idk it's just odd with them.

Millsap or Ibaka

Blake would be a great fit too since they don't have ball hoggers, but I don't know if they can afford him in the offseason.

All this drip on me
They're defensively elite and one of the few teams that can slow down fast pace, good offensive teams. The problem is don't have multiple playmakers who can just carry them offensively when they are having an off night shooting.

When Gordon Hayward is your best offensive playmaker when you need an iso bucket, you're not a championship contender. Dante Exum being a complete bust at this point has also hurt them because he was drafted for the sole purpose of being a playmaker who could possibly become the face of the franchise.:yeshrug:

Time, they still need 2-3 years to see what Lyles and Exum can turn into.

So you don't think getting someone like Crowder at the 3 and moving Hayward to the 2 would work?

Like it's been said, they Really reallyyyy need a star player but....outside of Rudy Gay (and i use that lightly in his case)..it's lookin shaky

Date Exum looking real funny style breh, is he even getting playing time?

Nah, they don't need to trade for Crowder, Hayward is a 3 through and through and isn't quick enough to defend 2s.

They have assets to make a trade in the future, there's nothing on the market right now so why make a bad trade? They just need to continue to develop what they have now and draft smart.


Exum is coming off a torn ACL, he had a good stretch recently, next year will be the real season for him to sink or swim.
