I feel like this team has too many superstars and in order for them to all score, they all need the ball. They don’t play fast enough for them all to score how they want and the amount of points they want. If they all keep playing isolation it wastes too much time in the clock. They are in the bottom 5 in pace in the league and bottom 7 in points per game. Doesnt make sense with 3 guys that can average over 75-80 pts per game as a trio. should only be scoring 111 pts per game.

Big 3 HArden, PG3, Kawhi should average 65-80 pts per game minimum Westbrook may chip in 10-15 pts but needed for pace and assists and passion
Norman Powell 10-15 pts (consistent scoring off the bench when starters not hitting shots)
Zubac 10-15 pts (Mainly needed for size against other bigs and rebounding)
Terrence Mann 10 pts (Solid rotational player)

PJ Tucker (Do something)
Bones Hyland (Play the kid to cut down on minutes in season to preserve guys for injuries you cant afford)
DanielTheis (any rebounding and pts is needed, hustle guy and a bit of size)

What they need is a Point guard who pushes the pace and gets them in rhythm with easy looks and cuts and helps to get numbers faster. These guys all want 20-25 pts a night off jumpshots then they have to score faster. James Harden is great but he dribbles way too much. Watching the games if you watch the amount of dribbles it wastes too much time and there is no time left on the clock to pass the ball for any assist so you end up with a tough contested shot at the end of most possessions. There is no off ball movement. This kills the pace and rhythm. Off the bench Harden can play his dribble God style and get his buckets that way. He also is a low energy player even on defense. High level 6th mn would be an amazing roll for him.

What do yall think?

      No, bench Harden, Westbrook, Kawhi and PG and trade for Reggie, DJ and Blake. Start Moon and find a way to bring back Preston.
