Trade & FA 2023-24: Stein-Ingram Trade Inevitable| LAL Want Lebron Back On Any Terms

[Mavs2021]

I get the concept that statistics, including advanced statistics is not the whole story and there are a lot of other factors.  But it seems strange to see you bash advanced statistics when you use simple counting stats to back up a lot of your arguments.

Seems more like the other way around. "Normal" stats don´t account for anything. I´m pretty sure Oubre could also average 5 PPG on 64% TS, if he was into such a thing. He´d simply never shoot and just dunk/lay-up the ball three times a game. Now he´s a winning player?

My whole argument is that if we lose THJ in a center trade, then we need another scorer. Oubre is the best option left, unless you want to re-visit Wood. 

What if Kyrie goes down with an "injury", which he does every year. Who steps up as the #2 scoring option/creator besides Luka? 

Oubre might not be ideal, but he´s a good stop gap solution. 

Also when THJ arrived in Dallas, his career shooting percentages were virtually the same as Oubre right now.

 Who is to say the Mavs coaching staff and playing off Luka/Kyrie can´t have the same effect on Oubre as they did on THJ?  

I´d give him $4M to find out.
