We Got Swindled by Sexton (And Eddie Zero Sucks)

Conley puts pressure at the rim with his driving pull up floater, more like a Tre Young. Sexton puts pressure at the rim more like Ja Morant, but by all means what do you think rim pressure means.
Can you score buckets at the rim. Not within 10 feet. At the rim/restricted. Layups/Dunks. Conley takes 2 shots per game within 5 feet and he makes 50% of them. That's not rim pressure, that's really bad (that just isnt his game, it's not shade. He has no way of being good at that given he is short and old af.

Sexton takes 4.5 per game and makes 58%, which isnt great, but it's good.

Elite guards like Mitchell/SGA/Ja/Dame are taking 6+ per game and making over 60%

Rim pressure and scoring at the rim aren't necessarily the same thing. C'mon, you're better than this.

Conley causes a certain amount chaos on the defense when driving the paint with his floater and playmaking. When it opens up the defense under the basket, it's absolutely rim pressure.

ya rim pressure can even be conley getting in the paint and feeding Lauri for a dunk. That would be rim pressure that happened because of conley.
 
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.

If anything, this is that rare trade where everyone involved came out better. The Jazz are happy, the Cavs are happy, and I'm sure not one player involved in the trade is thinking "I wish I hadn't been traded" right now.
