Fred Katz

He's going to bring the ball up the most.

He's going to be the guy who's able to get into the teeth of the defense the most because he's going to create threes from there.

He's the best three point creator they have.

He's specifically really important on those corner threes.

They're still taking a lot of threes.

The quality of their threes right now is not what it was last year.

And I think a huge part of that is because Garland isn't there to be able to facilitate corner threes and be able to kick out and then have the ball swing around the perimeter.

They're just not operating in that same kind of way without Garland.

And they had the number one offense in the league.

And I voted for Garland for All-NBA last year.

And my justification was...

people talk about he didn't make it, but my justification was people talk about Donovan Mitchell in this fashion, but Garland is the one Mitchell is, is their best player.

Yes.

And he's great.

But Garland last year was the one who ran the show.

Absolutely.

And he ran the show for the offense.

That was the most efficient offense in the NBA.

And then the fourth quarters too.

i think they're i think it'll be very difficult for them to make a trade of significance in season because of everything you guys just said you know them being they're the only team in the league over the second apron right now they have the most expensive payroll in the nba right now and that becomes incredibly difficult to make these kinds of moves because they're not allowed to trade more than one player yeah in the same deal because they're over the second apron but
