The best part about it would be there would be absolutely zero tank talk and it would just be all out trying to win.

Agreed. Great point. Get the weight off our shoulders

As all of this current Jazz guards talk goes, it’s worth mentioning that the only PG this team has is a 30 year old reclamation project on an expiring deal. THT might not even play here next year. Sexton isn’t really a PG (I like him and I wish he was but at a certain point you actually have to get assists).

The reality is that we need long term point guards in the pipe. This is especially true because a focus should be turning Lauri into the most effective weapon possible and he benefits a lot from people setting him up.

Sadly and reluctantly agree (I love sexton and really like Dunn but cant really argue with you). Who is the best at assists (#'s wise) of the pg's in our range?

There aren’t any great ones. Freshman don’t usually get the opportunity to lead their teams because they also just aren’t hardly ever prepared to deliver in that way at a high level.

Anthony Black might be the most promising in that regard? Maybe?

Cason had a better AST% than Black. Top-3 are Cason/Black/JHS but Cason leads that by a decent margin. I think some of that is when Black drove and kicked the player would drive and do nothing over and over.

Speaking of Cason though I’m starting to like him more and more. I’m thinking he is going to move up to 9 on my big board above Ausar.
 
I’m not sure Washington would want to get rid of Morris, but sign me up if they do (re: trading up one spot). He’s filling the Jose Calderon shaped hole in my heart with his bonkers assist-to-turnover ratio (5 to 1! Wow!). 38% from 3, too.

Also, apparently one of his nicknames is “Count of Monte Assist/TO” which is a hoot.

I like Dunn but who knows if he can stay healthy… having another real pg that sets the table has tremendous value… not only to winning but to development. THT is too chaotic to play pg full time… Sexton isn’t necessarily that guy either. It is getting a version of what Conley brought to the table.

He’s boring… so I get why people don’t want him or wouldn’t be excited. Solid assist and super low turnovers… with great low volume high efficiency shooting numbers isnt sexy… but winning is sexy AF.

Black was the first name to come to mind when thinking of a PG to go with Lauri. But his assist/turnover ratio is pretty bad so idk.
