Not totally disagreeing on the PG take, just think KPJ could be the guy with the right coach and a good PnR center. Sengun might be that center on offense, but you will still need a rim protector on the other side of the ball
In all honesty it doesn't matter who is running this Silas offense because the coach will be gone once his contract is up, with the next coach bringing in a new offensive system. If Silas wants to keep his job beyond this first contract then he either needs to change his "Chaos offense" to something less "chaotic" or have someone with better court vision and passing run it.
Again that was his job then. Some of you guys are dumb as ****. You think Kobe Bryant a man who could get by anyone at will couldnt simply pass more? Do you guys even watch basketball? Also who the fck says Jalen has to be EXACTLY like Kobe. Again they play in totally different eras.
Nobody decided that, but if they did, they want to see how he does with keys, so they can plan for the future.
Just accept it... KPJ and JG aren't suited to play with each other. They're both wings. They're scorers but not playmakers. The sooner they realized their roles, the better. There's no use pretending to be PGs. Now it doesn't have to be PGs to direct the offense. It can also be a nice big (point-forward/point-center). Both players also need to upgrade their defense. Silas defensive maneuvers are cringe-worthy.
Man, y'all really need to stop with the word elite, makes me think you don't know what elite is. It also does not matter if you can get by your man if you cannot finish through contact.
Unlike my friends in the Jalen Green cult, I'm not stupid enough to suggest a shooting guard without PG skills run the point.
But u would suggest a center without pg skills to run it instead? If your friends r stupid what does that make u suggesting that? Yea thought so.
When have I ever done that seriously? By suggesting Daniel Theis I was clearly making fun of those who would have the only other player on the team besides Theis averaging fewer assists than turnovers running the point. Right now KPJ is by far the best option we have to run the point among the players who dress for games. He's young and struggling almost as much as Green, but I don't think it's time to give up on him just yet.....but if there's a top tier actual PG at the top of next year's draft, you pick them.
And I'm making fun of how u praise mathews to b a star just to show how much u dislike green. Y r u being so serious? Calling folks stupid when u can make stupid post calling for theis to run point.
That not his role and hasn’t been . if he starts excelling at creating for himself and defensively ... then by all means expand his game right now we are giving : kpj , Tate , wood , and sengun chances to run the offense . dj and Eric are there to be steady hands . don’t want to put too much on Green’s plate . work on his other strengths first and try to bring them up to nba speed .
I praise Mathews for shooting well when he shoots well and it triggers you which is hilarious. You do know that praising another player for doing something well isn't a slight to your hero.... right?
Why the hell would we give the least offensive aware player on this team in Wood(bad at setting screen, always out of position, blinders on when dribbling the ball up court etc) a chance to run the offense. It is against the development of this team's core for Wood having any amount of run time running the offense. That's silly. Why would we even give Tate a chance to run the offense? Ya Gordon needs some reps to enhance his trade value and KPJ shows promise in spurts running it so those two make sense. Sengun shows immense promise at setting up guys in the high post but that isn't enough to "run a offense".
well not that I’m in charge of decision making , but here’s what I think is the case . we decided going in that KPJ was going to get an opportunity to have a high usage rate. We decided going in that while wood is part of the team to feature him on offense . And same with Gordon , because he actually deserves it . tate , has shown decent creation ability and really excelled in transition. Plus , his outside shot is a weakness so you’d rather not only have him sit in the corner . What Silas did was have him get the ball deep outside and have room to gain momentum, or in the post where he’s ok . I think we also predetermined that the rookies wouldn’t be pushed super hard in terms of having huge responsibilities. Green is like our #3-4 option ... and sengun doesn’t play high minutes .... yet . Maybe we are planning to pick it up post ASB . Getting conditioned for the nba is a real thing . Both have had slight injury setbacks . We are clearly being careful . Christopher has also shown enough signs to merit a look too . Im really encouraged by green and think that he’s on his way to becoming a top player . Whether he settles at 10 or 50 .... still too early to tell . His shot looks pretty good and his bounce is high . He’s got good effort . Silas wants a ball movement type offense ... it’s the correct way to play . Iso centric isn’t a good idea unless you have cp3 and james harden . Green may never evolve into a 7 assist player . If he can give you high level scoring and defense and keep the ball moving / make the right decisions ... then you let the rest fall into place
He could pass more but he didn't. Lots of people would be different if they did different things. Osama wouldn't have bombed the Twin Towers if he was a better person. But he wasn't LOL gimme a break. Passing requires court vision and unselfishness, it doesn't require blowing by people what does Kobe being able to blow by people have anything to do with him being a play maker? WHen he blows by people he goes to score not to pass the rock SMH.
From what I've seen he has excellent vision on Pick and Roll. He's a terrible at the teen wolf iso and then dish. Pick and Roll with him and Sengun two years from will now be sorcery.
