Every move they've made or have been rumored to be trying to make has been about improving on the offensive side of the ball (while trying to maintain as much defense as possible, admittedly). From a bird's eye view, it's the right strategy.
I just think what Jones did down the stretch and in the Playoffs for this team has suddenly become so underrated around here, that's all.
Nothing they've done yet is terrible.
I don’t know if that’s what they think, but I don’t think that’s correct. Marshall played 18 minutes a game for a mediocre team against bench units. This last season was the first for him to shoot over 31% and he did in low volume. If he regresses to his career average then he isn’t any better than DJJ offensively and although good, he is a downgrade defensively.
