I think he’s a bit overrated too but I think we should be looking for a guy whose not rated at all right now who will have their stock rise with us. I’m looking at Noah Vonleh.

Yup... I'd look at Taj Gibson, but even he might be out of the price range with our assets.

Juwan is the guy... we sleeping on him.

If we are really trying to win a championship this year we will upgrade TB and Niang by the playoffs... Look at the Clips they are looking for more wing depth and another big... shiiiiiitttt they got a ton already.
 
Say Juwan works at the center and provides a little spacing... you can try and get a guy like McKinnie on a 10 day in Cleveland... a big rebounding wing and good defender... with a shaky jumper and I like that lineup instead of Niang and TB.

Or a good second like the GS one Dallas owns. As long as they are in striking distance I think they keep him. I doubt they get a first unless they take on bad salary or also put Saric in the deal.

I honestly think he's a tad over-rated.

He probably is a bit overrated but I think he'd be such a perfect fit on the Jazz. If only our asset cupboard wasn't so bare.

I think Taj is in New York to be close to family for medical reasons, don't think he'll be moving.

Juwan should never be on the floor except for blow outs.

I mean because TB is so effective and is such a finished product we’d be crazy to put Morgan in.
 
Juwan is a little older than TB and way more experienced. TB played 553 minutes in college... Morgan played almost 3000... I know its college, but its highly competitive basketball.

Juwan averaged almost 4 assists per 36 minutes (with very low turnovers) in the g league... passing is one of the things that shows feel for the game. Juwan's g league numbers are far superior to TB's and honestly like just bonkers... things like blocks and steals translate and either show feel for the game (anticipation) or that the player has elite quickness/athleticism. They weren't just empty numbers either... his offensive rating was 149 and defensive rating was 98... Everyone's darling Jarrell Brantley (I love him too not hating) has some good numbers but his net rating is even - Ortg 104 Dfrtg 104.

A young Rudy Gobert went down to the G League for 8 games year's ago... he dominated... his ORTG was 143 and his DRTG was 101. Rudy rebounded more per 36 and got 1 more block per game... Juwan scored more and had a higher TS% while also shooting threes. It wasn't just that Juwan was good in the G League and got some numbers... he was as basically as dominant as any player has ever been in the G League.

TB is a HOF compared to Morgan right now. Dude is a deer in the headlights out there.

You are wrong... he's only played a couple meaningful minutes in the NBA and is playing as the 4 in garbage time... they ask him to stay in the corner. Watch some of his defensive possessions and you'll see it. If he was operating as the role man things would be different. I will trust his 4 years in college and the full game tapes we have from the G League over garbage time. Go watch his G league highlights and then come talk to me.

Last game was a perfect opportunity to try Morgan at 5 and they didn't do it so I guess they don't think about it seriously for now.

This is my concern... that it would take an event that forces our hand... I think Quin might be thinking a little to short term... or they might be rewarding TB for a couple years of hard work.

Maybe he's just waiting to release it... we've had a few parts coming and going... maybe I'm nuts but there have been other things that felt somewhat obvious that we could change and just waited... sometimes it was front office... sometimes personnel.
