The biggest difference is Brunson is still on an upward trajectory and I don't think Din will play any better for us than he did this season (he was crazy hot from 3).Agree to disagree. You can't teach length. Give me the 6'6" player over the 6'1" every time when they are comparable players talent wise. Having a 6'6" two guard and a 6'7" pg is a game changer imo. We can literally switch all 5 guys like that. Brunson is a really good hustle and position guy on defense. That won't be replaced. His willingness to take charges was incredible. I think Dinwiddie can improve his defense in Kidd's system. He now knows the expectations and can work to improve all off season. I think it's a little unfair to say he can't improve being that he's only 29. That's just my opinion. I'm not saying I'm correct for sure.
Dragic will play how many minutes are warranted. If he plays like he did in the regular season the last couple years, it wont be any more than 15 a game.
