It isn’t 2004 anymore, defense doesn’t win championships. What does win is having many offensive weapons. We have minimal. That’s why we can’t get a win. We’re running a lineup of 5 dudes, 2 of them cannot shoot at all, 2 of them have a decent shot (Cunningham ivey) and 1 dude has the slowest jumper in the league that isn’t considered threatening to other teams, because he can only shoot if he’s wide open (stew) We are not going to win in this league until we get more shooting. This lineup will not cut it. Cade and ivey could look way better if we had bogdanovic back. And that jerami grant guy in Portland looks like a solid piece too. If only we could get a guy like that on our roster instead of Isaiah livers. Imagine this lineup: Cade Ivey Bog Grant Duren Time to make some hard choices. As much as we love Ausar and stew, if they can’t get their jump shot right, I don’t know how we’re supposed to win with them.
The thing that’s hilarious is I feel like we have never had good shooters. I remember how painful it was ten years ago when it was clear just how important 3 point shooting was becoming, and our only competent shooter was Kyle Singler
