Him getting 15 regular minutes a game would be a big uptick from what he did his rookie year. Even with bumps in minutes for Kyrie and Green, you still have Timmy playing half his time at guard.POA defender is the reason I wouldn’t mind picking Wallace in the draft. Him and Green taking turns would be good, but it would come at the cost of someone’s minutes. I could also see the makings of an amazing G rotation with Luka/Hardy/Wallace/Green.
POA defender is another legit need on the team. If we manage to acquire a rotational point of attack defender in addition to a starting center and forward, then I agree that there is little room for Timmy. Its also hard to imagine we would add that many players without sending Tim's salary out.
Sign Kyrie for this season, get him a year past his reputation issues and trade him in the offseason for better fitting parts (I’m sure this isn’t the FO plan) before he forces a trade.
This year, THJ for Brooks or Williams SnT just makes too much sense to me. Both teams can use THJ’s shooting and we need either one (actually both would be amazing) pretty badly.
That’s off topic, but basically THJ is an ill-fitting puzzle piece at this point. Sure we could carve out minutes for him, but that carving of minutes would come at a high price in the playoffs IMO.
