cade only scored 40 points in only 2 games this season and, though averaging 26ppg is great, it took him 21 shots to do it. i remain unconvinced a low-efficiency scorer without top-end scoring potential can lift a team past the 2nd round. how does this improve, either schematically or individually?

ah yes, investigate yourself and find that no one did anything wrong. playbook as old as time.

so watching him get cooked in a playoff game without any help is somewhat cathartic

the biggest problem: i don't know how cade gets better. he changed his shot profile and was surrounded by shooters, one of whom had one of the best 3-point shooting seasons ever. progress from this team falls mostly on the shoulders of ausar, duren, and ivey.

the team essentially has to build around cade now, which i remain skeptical of. i think he has a really high floor, but i don't see the top end out of him. cade scored 40 points only twice this season, and while it's nice to have a guy that gives you 26 every game, i wish it wasn't on 21 shots.

and then there was cade. a big leap from his previous seasons statistically and took on a huge leadership role. changed his shot profile pretty significantly by eliminating a ton of bad midrange pull ups. he still used it as a crutch but cade is the guy.

ausar is great; excited he gets an offseason. promising stuff from holland. stew is where he needs to be. tobias is still tobias. tec-19 disappeared, which is a bummer. he's probably not long for this team. hardaway fluctuated. beasley was a flamethrower. sasser disappeared.

duren had an up-and-down season. the spacing helped as he became cade's go-to lob threat. he has a tendency to get over excited when he has a strong personal matchup and usually plays terribly but chalk it up to youth. turnovers are bad and his defense is wanting, but a solid year

kind of an incomplete here. ivey looked great and finished the season shooting 40% from outside on 5 attempts per game. his defense was still pretty bad, but he looks like a core building block, as long as he fully recovers from injury.

with that said, i still think troy weaver isn't the worst. the vets he put together last year were awful and much love to trajan for getting beasley and hardaway, but weaver's drafts created the core of this team and were spot on. he'll be good in new orleans.

this one was obvious at the time but it retrospect, it may have underplayed how catastrophically bad monty was. tripling your win total from the previous year without dramatic overhauls doesn't just happen. monty last season may be the worst coaching job in nba history.

one of the richest men in the world is not actively approving anything that the amazon product team does. he nixed this because he's complicit in this regime.
