Their shooting sucks; they don't have a true Point Guard; they don't have a true Shooting/Big Guard; their Power Forward/Center depth is at least one capable body short; and their Small Forwards can't shoot either.
Otherwise, they're in great shape.
I really really like the way Rozier's shot looks now. I think he's going to take a giant step forward this year.Tough question. I wish they had better three point shooters. it's all about making threes in that league now. Gun to my head i say they win 48 to 52 games. I would like them more if evan turner was still coming off the bench.
how do you feel? did you feel about wade leaving?More wins than the Heat will have. That's what I'm calling.
Team is mediocre at best. I really didn't care about Wade. He's WAYYY past his prime. I hope he goes on to have more postseason success with the Bulls, but the Heat needed to start over again.how do you feel? did you feel about wade leaving?
Missing 3/5s of your starting core will do that to you.So far, the Smeltics appear to be what I thought they would be.
Olynk is a lot more important to the success of the team than you think. But I do agree they need a legitimate power forward.At some point this team will need to acquire a real power forward who specializes in defense and rebounding.
I can see Ainge trading Olynyk, a guard (not Thomas) and one of the Nets draft picks to get one.
Amir Johnson is a decent player but he's best suited to be a backup ...
you cannot play uptempo if your depending on your guards to grab a lot of boards.
Of course you would.I completely agree with the above.
Aside from Tyler Zeller & Amir Johnson, the rest of their big men do not play a big man's game.
They have a bunch of 6'1 guards who do not have point guard abilities and are way too short to be effective shooting guards.
As soon as Nerlens Noel is healthy, I would ask Philly if they would take our (not NJ's - that's Untouchable) #1 & the utterly redundant (and not very good either) Terry Rozier for him & Nick Stauskas,
provided that Noel can be signed to an extension of course.
I would then trade one of Olynyk/Jerebko for a legit 2/3.
And finally I would ****-can the putrid, less-than-useless Gerald Green.
Ok, the season starts tomorrow night. Time for the over/under. I'm setting it at 52 wins. Less would be a disappointment.
