This. Siakam is worse as a perimeter defender and as a 3 pt shooter. Worse fit with Kessler and also overlaps with Lauri. I dont think we would get our money's worth with him. OG is pretty much guaranteed value skillsetwise.. too bad his contract doesnt work for us right now.
OG is younger and I think he's someone like Lauri who could blow up in a larger role, the only issue with him is it's a flight risk after next year.
Yeah the contract is a turn off for us unfortunately. I dont expect him to like blow up offensively... he doesnt look great with the ball in his hands. But offensively we are very good as is, so replacing KO/Vando with someone who can be at least as good a contributor while providing excellent perimeter defense would be a gimmie.
I agree with all of that.
My ideal trio to start alongside Lauri and Kessler is something like this:
I think ideally Agbaji develops into that off ball player who can also defend other teams best perimeter player. I think Kessler will eventually develop into at least an average 3P shooter which would be huge for our spacing. I think ideally we either add 1) An elite PG / versatile 3&D wing 2) An elite wing / versatile 3&D PG. Jaylen Brown, Amen Thompson, and Scoot Henderson are on my wish list.
Siakam needs the ball in his hands all the time. He's good, but he's also an overdribbler who can't seem to be able to do anything without putting the ball on the floor first.
Makes too much sense
I will do it. They both seems to lack of basketball IQ but Bones can become a good shooting guy which i do think Vando will never be.
Bones could be our PG of the future too although him and Sexton may be kind of redundant.
Agree. I'm still in between with Colin. I love the energy and the ability to create his own offense but he got a tunnel vision at that stage. Hope he can improve.
