I really think a stretch 5 is absolutely necessary for this team. When you have Randle, Brunson, and RJ out there who ALL like to attack the rim, it would make their lives easier to have open driving lanes and help with spacing. This summer, we could have EASILY sent Mitch, Fournier, and a few 2nd rounders to Washington in a sign and trade for Porzingis.
A lineup featuring:
PG: Jalen Brunson
SG: Quentin Grimes
SF: RJ Barrett
PF: Julius Randle
C: Kristaps Porzingis
Would have made this team look much more cohesive and provided better spacing. What do you guys think? Was it a fumble by not going after Porzingis?
HE’S HAD ONE HEALTHY YEAR SINCE WE TRADED HIM. And that was the best game of his career. F@#k him.
