Garlsnd hurts this team too much with not just his turnovers but where they happen. His turnovers always leads to fast break baskets because he turns the ball over out front.One thing I'll say in defense of Garland. While he's not better than Mitchell, I do think he makes others around him better, unlike Mitchell. Garland is flawed as a player, I get that. And yes, Mitchell is definitely better than him.
I don't think Mitchell makes anyone around him better, in fact, I think he makes guys around him worse. At least our guys. Not a lot, but slightly, because everyone has to alter their game to him, and he doesn't alter his game to anyone else.
In Utah, it worked, because he had different personnel. And they really didn't very skilled offensive players, just guys that can stand around, and just catch and shoot.
He's a great offensive player, but he's basically just a solo act.
I just don't like it. Nothing personal, it's just who he is, and I don't think he can change.
This team really is too guard dependent.
Mitchell or Garland needs to go. We need a long true SF……put this in the trade Ms home and it was successful.
Nets get Garland
Cavs get Bridges and Dimiwiddie
Nets could use a young PG (Dimwiddie and Simmons aren’t it)
We put Bridges at the SF, move Strus to SG and DM to the point.
Or Nets get Mitchell (gets him close to home)
Cavs get Bridges and D Finney-Smith
Just spitting in the wind.
