Totally agree. We can't just dump CJ, as much of a postseason choker as he is, we can't replace his shooting unless you're getting a high volume guy back.

It's not so much that we can't dump CJ.

It's that we can't keep BI, then swap CJ for that "true point guard" everyone wants that doesn't shoot the 3 nearly as good and most importantly, nearly as much as CJ.

We already start Zion with only 1 volume shooter in CJ, we should not then start Zion with 0 volume shooters, that's going in the wrong direction.


The only way it makes sense to trade CJ is if you're also trading BI and somewhere in there, you're getting a volume shooter back. But I see no world where we trade both, so as I've been saying for 2 years now...it's BI. It was always BI.
