It's not what rose was giving us, it was his threat. He is the type of player that could explode for 30/9 on a given night. Go on a single handed run (has done it a handful of times this season). You have to prepare for him and his speed keeps opposing D's honest. Now? clamp down on Pau and Jimmy and we're not a threat to more talented teams.

Well, we were dealing with the hand we were dealt. But our team works with a game managing PG (so long as they can hit the 3) but you still need a catalyst. SF is the obvious spot for our team to net one (SG to a lesser extent...could move Jimmy to the 3). If we could steal Leonard away from the Spurs this summer that'd be a start but...we are capped out.

I dunno, I'm kinda fresh outta ideas right now but I'm thinking change is about to hit my team in waves.
