I think this threads title needs to be retired, after it has become clear to everyone, including the OP,even if he won't admit it, that we did not get swindled by Sexton.

Notice nobody agrees with the Jazz getting Swindled by Sexton and never did either. You can change the thread title but you can't change the OP lolI changed the thread title for your whiney self.
If I'm wrong I'm wrong. Rather be wrong tbhNotice nobody agrees with the Jazz getting Swindled by Sexton and never did either. You can change the thread title but you can't change the OP lol
Stockton has back head eyesHOW TALL WAS STOCKTON, HE SEEMED TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE FLOOR PRETTY WELL.
I guess we can be amiable enemies here,If I'm wrong I'm wrong. Rather be wrong tbh
I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.I guess we can be amiable enemies here,
I was wrong once, when I thought I was wrong about somthing lol
Thats a big concern for a PG... as that stage THT is better than him. And we need to have other option as Mike is old, he can't play every night 30-35 min or he will have up and down as he got now. But he is the only one with THT with great passing ability. Sexton have to improve a lot this part of the game. Can he? he is young so let's see. But after seeing playing 15 games, i have some doubt.1-5 from the FT line and missed wide open players on multiple occasions and on the season he has 2 more assist than turnovers on the season.
He's a 83% career FT shooter for his career. He was 7-15 tonight and Conley/Clarkson were 5-22. I wouldn't pass to them either.1-5 from the FT line and missed wide open players on multiple occasions and on the season he has 2 more assist than turnovers on the season.
Yeah, the issue is THT is hard to play off ball. If he was even a decent shooter he'd be far and away a better option than Sexton. Hopefully THT continues to develop because he is the far better prospect between the twoIn our 5 losses, Sexton has 0 assists in the 4th quarter of those game (averaging 5.7 minutes). Him (2.5) and JC (6.3) are our top 2 shot takers and combine for more shots than 5 other top minute guys combined --> KO (1.3), Lauri (2.0), Vando (2.0), Conley (0.8) and Beasley (1.8). They also combine for 5 turnovers in the 4th (as much as all others combined) and only 4 rebounds between them (JC 3, Sexton 1).
At least Sexton is hitting his shots in the 4th with amazing FG% at 7/10. JC on the other hand is horrible in those games with 7/25 from the field and 1/10 from 3.
Since all except the Denver game were close games down the wire, it is fair to say we lived and died by our guards shooting amd driving. And they are not all good shots or drives. Hardy needs to make sure we play by the system even if its a close game on the road. We need to play team ball, and if those two guys are busting up the system, then put THT or Beasley in the game or something. Our only chance to beat superstar stacked teams is that we play less superstar ball and more team ball than they do.
But if he stays within the system, I would still rather give him a go. Or Beasley. Mike is carrying too much of the playmaking burden atm. KO facilitates some as well, but we dont want him holding the ball at all, do we?Yeah, the issue is THT is hard to play off ball.

Disagree that THT's shot is "developing."Yeah, the issue is THT is hard to play off ball. If he was even a decent shooter he'd be far and away a better option than Sexton. Hopefully THT continues to develop because he is the far better prospect between the two
Plenty of bad decision-making last night to go around. I attribute that largely to fatigue. But Kessler should have seen the floor in the 4th as part of a 3 7-footer lineup to try to slow down Embiid, that is on the coach, but also more poor decision-making. Really what we need to get over the top is a true secondary play-maker that can spell out Conley, but we just haven't found anyone on the team truly capable of that yet. Some with sparks of it, but no one we can rely on. We really need a prime Joe Ingles type to fill that role. A prime Joe Ingles on this team would shine.But if he stays within the system, I would still rather give him a go. Or Beasley. Mike is carrying too much of the playmaking burden atm. KO facilitates some as well, but we dont want him holding the ball at all, do we?
I was also disappointed by Lauri last game on that late play where he played that great pick and roll and Mike got him the ball and he sucked up 2 defenders but didn't kick it out. Yeah he probably thought he gets and 1 there but still he essentially played out 3 defenders and just ended up smashing against a brick wall and having his layup blocked by Embiid. You cant trust the refs to give you calls yet. Kick it out, and its a wide open shot.
I mean it wasnt as bad of a play as the JC one where he circled the entire halfcourt just to take it to Embiid and get rejected, or the Sexton layup... but still.
