What has Bamba done to be better than Sexton? In a redraft Bamba goes after Sexton.
I think it would be crazy to trade Sexton at this point. I think people are just disappointed that we are getting blown out right now after looking decent to start the season.
Beilein is showing his lack of experience in the NBA. Other coaches are seeing his lack of adjustments and are exposing him right now. Butler was going to defend the best player tonight from PG to SF. The problem is Garland and Cedi aren't making teams pay for mismatch on defense. Beilein isn't matching up to best defend and attack a team that are playing wings over guards. Not having a good scoring wing doesn't help the situation.

Nothing that's why I said Magic would have to add. Guards a dime-a-dozen right now. Bigs who can shoot and protect the paint are rare. I wouldn't make the deal unless they added a sweetener like my post said. Which also said Sexton is better right now. Sexton is a SG in a PG body. That's not a good combination. This upcoming draft is full of mainly guards. We have KPJ who can play SG. Windler coming back.
People think Sexton is improving but is he? Improving defense slightly has made his 3 point percentage drop. Sure he's better then the worst defender in the NBA now. Sure he can score. His shooting hasn't been as good this year as last year. He's still no where near league average as a passer or a decision maker. He has a lot of warts. Only thing he does at a above average clip is score. Yes that's a good skill to have if you can also create or your a 6-5 player who can defend other shooting guards. Dude is Monta Ellis or Lou Williams. Not really someone you build around. Unless it's your 2nd unit and will he take to being the new Clarkson when Clarkson leaves?
At least he doesn't have to play Jimmy Butler every night
No thanks. Bamba has absolutely no motor. That is not the type of big we need. There will be better players available in the next draft who have some length and play much harder.Bamba and a sweetener for Sexton would make sense. Fultz as the SG and Sexton as the PG would alleviate both players weaknesses. Fultz has size and playmaking but lacks a shot. Sexton can score but is essentially a SG in a PGs body. But I wouldn't do it straight up and wonder about Medicals. We would need more but it could be a win win type deal. Keep in mind Bamba almost went to Michigan and Beilein recruited him hard. Bamba fits what Beilein wants in his C if he can stay healthy.
Exactly, Jimmy is a top 3 two way player with size and strength and a Miami Heat beatdown especially in Miami seem awfully familiar and almost expected on a yearly basis. The backcourt’s ceiling was always dependent on Garland’s ability to create/score and stretch the defense and he’s struggling mightily with his shot. Despite all of that Sexton has to look at the stat sheet and be embarrassed he got zero assists.

Yeah it's not like we won any there when we had Lebron even.
yeah Sexton needs to pass more, but no one is hitting 3's right now and it is a big problem. There is no room to penetrate and you have 3 guys draped on you at all time in the paint. Even Collin is struggling. Love hit some wide open ones last night, but Miami just shot lights out while no one could hit one for the cavs. The floor is so small right now.
IF Windler goes into the starting lineup for Cedi, I would not mind.
