2021-2022 MAVS NEWS: 4th in West | WCF loss [ARCHIVED]

[ItsGoTime]

My hope is that Green can eventually replace Bullock, but based on my criteria he has a long way to go offensively (19%).

I struggle with the Powell/Bertans bench frontcourt, especially if you are going to pair them up with THJ.  I realize defense is not as important in the second unit, but that group is going to struggle a lot.  I lean towards having Maxi and Green in the second unit to hold down the defense, and let Powell and the two ball handlers handle the majority of the offensive load.  I realize this doesn't leave much room for Bertans, but I think he can be worked in when needed.  Dorian can play some 3 if necessary.

Ya, I think in any event if the team Dan put up there is who we come out of FA with and Green is ready to take a step up into a larger role, THJ's minutes are gonna take a pretty severe cut. We need more defensive players IMO for Kidd's system to work the best. I just wonder how that affects THJ's value/mentality should that happen. It's probably better for him if we trade him this offseason if there are any takers and it doesn't cost us to do so (hopefully I'm wrong on my valuation of him around the league).
