Last season: 20pts, 5 reb 5 ast 1 stl and a vastly improved 3 pt shot (40%). Good size and handle for a SG. Also, would probably command a lower salary of 15M per... allowing us to re-sign Randle or another quality Free Agent. What's not to like?

Didn’t he have the same numbers as a rookie. And now he is old right.

If you sign, Tyreke for more than a year, then we gave up on Kawhi

28. As old as Paul George.

As a rookie, he shot 28% from deep. He improved to 40% last season.

His game compares to DLo, with better %ages.

Not necessarily. If we trade for Kawhi, we can use the leftover cap for Tyreke, for instance.

You can get creative.

That's true although I guess it depends on what we send out.

Tyreke, KCP, Avery Bradley... whichever SG would take the 1+1 team option if we strike out, you know... same thing we done for half a decade

Avery Bradley cannot shoot... we cannot have two important guards on the team who can't shoot at the same time.

Tyreke is a bad mix with Lebron. He needs the ball in his hands to be effective don't view him much as a spot up shooter. Though admittedly I have not watched him much of late.

Bradley can shoot. He's a career 37% shooter from deep.

His TS is 51%... and below 50% last year... way too inefficient for my liking.

I supposed he's not the worst choice if he's cheap... but I'd rather aim for higher.

JJ Reddick would be perfect

Yes, I'd like Redick with LBJ. Especially until we see how Svi and Moe adjust to the NBA.

I doubt Reddick would come on a cut deal.

He took a one year rental last season, but I'm pretty sure he's going to look for a multiyear deal this summer.

Well, fair, but he does come with pretty darn good defense.

I'd rather just roll with Hart assuming he keeps up his rookie pace. People are sleeping him and how he developed as last year progressed... he's the perfect type of guard to play with Lebron.

That's why I said, I don't like him with Lonzo... if Lonzo goes back to his UCLA numbers then it would probably be fine... but to have two inefficient guards would be a huge handicap against Boston and GSW.

It's the same problem with Marcus Smart.

In his last 3 seasons he has played

25 Games
80 Games
52 Games

So averages tell you he’s more than likely going to play just over half of the game due to injury and he’s a really poor defender. I don’t think he’s an option at all even though his 3 pt% stroke is really good. As one poster stated above, he’s a better shooting version of DLO. Evans has posted negative or neutral BPM in 3 of his last 4 seasons. Hard pass, not a player you pursue if you are trying to win.

Yes, for one year. But I'm sure the Griz would love to keep him.
