Weaver is a terrible GM. His fascination with collecting mediocre big men(Bagley, Wiseman) is odd. Bagley is fine as a decent bench big but what was the point of getting Wiseman when you have your center of the future in Duren and you have Stewart as well.
The Saddiq Bey trade was short sighted and unnecessary....overall he wasnt a world beater but wings with size that can shoot 3s are a valuable commodity
Why is Hayes starting? He is legit maybe one of the 20 worst offensive players and his defense is not DPOY level to make up for that and he isnt some high level facilitator
Also Cade isnt a #1 Luka/Harden heliocentric guard. He cant shoot that well, his finishing sucks bc he has average athleticism and no explosion...his 1st step is solid but he has no get up so he gets blocked a lot. Turnover prone as hell.....also he was advertised as 6'8" when in reality he is 6'6" which makes a difference. He is a bigger Brogdon which is a damn good player but not a franchise cornerstone or a guy that can be your best player. As of now he would be a #3 on a contender. He needs to improve his 3pt shooting to get more efficient
And Monty might be a fraud. He was good in NOLA but yea he might have gotten the Pissy Crissy stimulus in PHX
