I actually agree with this but the measure has to be more than scoring right?
I would assume okoro is poised for more of a breakout compared to last year with an nba off-season and if he gets to 13-15/4/4 with great to potential all defensive 2nd team defense vs 25/3/2 and a defensive sieve? Where do we go with that? What’s better for the team?
Our draft pick and how Darius Garland looks would probably make this decision for us but my general point is I think we need to look at more than “He iS aN EliTE ScOrER ThOUgh” on a bad team and start looking at real impact in other ways.
EAT THAT ASS: Before the sexton fans crucify me, I still don’t think they should trade him and he may be much much better than okoro next year, the above was just a scenario where the impacts may be similar but in different ways. Best case scenario is both of them take big leaps and we keep them both.
It's not just the points. Sexton can win you the game at the end. You can put the ball in his hands. He's done it on multiple occasions. Okoro has shown some of that to be fair, but IMO Collin is the only guy on the team as of today that has the consistency of a star. We can talk all we want about his defense or poor playmaking, but his consistency is star like, and that just isn't 6th man material.
He is a weird player because he needs be paired with a larger playmaker, but I really think he can play that Robin role. He is just a cold blooded guy.
