Collin Sexton | The Young Bull

[MrX]

Literally *any* return would be more beneficial than what the Celtics got in the deal. To me, the fact that Collin is tied to the Kyrie trade is not a negative thing for us. The Celtics lost their assets and have been left hating Kyrie far worse than Cavs fans ever have. lol

Yes, great point. That would more than likely of been us.

Interesting when it was winning time last night, the coach gave the ball to Sexton and he delivered.

kind of a good role for him, too. I mean, you know he isn't setting anyone up, but he will get his shot.

There were plays last night when Sexton moved the ball fine. Then those plays he went tunnel vision. But then
there were maybe a handful of plays where you could see him dribble into a shakey position, then stop and
seemingly go through the play or in the moment options in his head. I think this latter behavior is a positive
sign that the pass is getting more of his attention in lieu of 100% ball hog mode. He looks like any other
relative novice learning a new form/behavior. It looks very mechanical but give the kid a chance to
keep growing. 33 game college career and 1+ 1 /4 season of the NBA. I don't know about his college coaching
but his first year in Cleveland was spent in a rotten, nearly non-existent system.

His current play and upside is worth more than is probable to get back for him in a trade. He shows many signs that he can be no worse than a 6th man who gets 25+/- minutes on a NBA club that would be considered a deep run playoff
club.

He set Love up for two threes in a row.

Exactly. 2nd year, 2nd coach, totally new role.

I wish we got Doncic, but we didn't. It isn't Sextons fault. It isn't his fault that he is about all we got from Kyrie either. It also isn't his fault the Cavs got the 5th pick the following year and got Darius.

In the article it says guys are shooting 56 percent off his passes this year up 8 points. He is getting the ball to his teammates more on time and target. I think he is making progress. Needs to get his 3 pt shot right and stop getting so deep with no plan.

He's 5 for his last 27 on 3's, or 18.5%. It's a little shocking how messed up his 3-point shot is after hitting 40% over 82 games last year.

At some point teams will slough off him to prevent the drive and invite him to shoot 3's.

He started hot too. I don't get it. He never shot the 3 this bad even in college when he wasn't a shooter.

NBA is a longer three and one year is a small sample size.

By the same token, his shot will get better because he will regress to the mean. It’s just highly unlikely the mean is 40%. Even at 35%, though, that means Sexton can become a valuable player.

Eventually give him Clarkson's role. Defense and passing isn`t as important coming off the bench. If he gets his 3 point shot back he could be 6th man of the year in a couple of years.

From todays game. 2 Wide Open Teammates, 18 seconds left on the shot clock and Sexton forces the shot inside.

I like his energy and passion, but this is just getting stupid. Game after game of him pulling this shit. His range also tanked this season. I also saw some numbers about how terrible Darius Garland is with Sexton on the court. Beilein should at least take note of that and separate them for as long as he can. Hes starting to but still has them playing together. Some people say Garland looks disinterested sometimes on the court. If I was playing with someone who does some of the shit Sexton does I would stop giving caring too.

I do think they need to be separated and I think Beilein needs to install plays to help move Sexton along. If his vision isn't good then create plays where he has to pass the ball. Is it so hard for Beilein to break down his sets to individual plays for drive and kick.

I like the idea of sexton taking on clarksons role. Start porter and garland
