    This team is definitely going to be better sooner than later. Not a contender at all. Tyreke seems to not want to come off the bench but he is a perfect candidate. He can play the wing or PG. I can see him out there with Asik/Jones/Hill/T. Evans/E. Moore. Run the same Iso plays that Crawford/Iso-Joe does. Have Hill and Moore for the kickout. Asik/ Jones for the rebound-putback. Asik and maybe E. Moore will be starters in the beginning of the year.

    tyreke is the worst kinda player in the sense that he still think his value is what it was at his height when he probably is better coming off the bench at this stage in his career

    Crawford has made a living coming off the bench for the clips, and he still gets busy and is way older than Tyreke. Tyreke that type of teammate that be wanting to throw the ball at the rim to pad his rebound stats.

    really had high hopes for dude when they signed him

    I have a feeling he will get traded or sign somewhere else but they will insist he comes off the bench. Then all that talent will be realized. His skill set is iso-ball; Iso-Joe/Crawford/Tyreke Evans. He may never evolve but it is up to him.

    depends on what you are expecting tbh

    i mean, Reke is a defensive liability. I aint gon get all technical and post +/- stats but just using the eyeball test, he could give two ? about playing defense so, its plausible to believe that any offensive contributions he might make are negated b/c of his lack of defense

    if hill is legit and gets comfortable in the offense, i think whatever production he provides offensively is a bonus, but it doesnt help to score 12 if you giving up 18 on the other end. Just using an example.

    Lol so who is better suited to start over Tyreke?

    J'rue Holiday- He fits what Gentry is trying to do. He doesnt have Tyreke's versatility but he fits the system.

    i dont think Caddo understood the question

    but again, they were decimated with injuries with practically the same squad that made the playoffs the previous year

    i mean, i still think, that roster, when healthy was b/t 6th and 8th seed, but still, they regressed something terribly due to injuries

    this year, on paper, maybe somewhere b/t 7th and 5th? idk. there was so much roster turn around. Everything would have to happen perfectly for them to go even that high

    Hell he gon lose with Tyreke at the point. When J'rue got off of minute restrictions, he was doing his thing but by that time injuries had damn near everyone out hurt.

    His post-All Star Break averages of 21.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.7 steals, and 1.7 three-pointers per game

    I'm not saying Jrue sucks I just think Tyreke is y'all 2nd best player and I don't see anybody on y'all team that's a clear upgrade over him at this time.
