We overpaid Dennis Schroeder to be the only point guard who plays really on our team, and then we had to get Russell Westbrook to be another one, and we don't play the point guard that we drafted a couple years ago.

This is something.

You know what they didn't have to do is trade Tyrese Halliburton and alienate De'Aaron Fox to the point that he also wanted to be traded, and then end up with no point guards.

A fan emailed like a, a fan, Justin Dutari.

I hope I'm pronouncing your name right.

Uh,

telling Lakup that he needs a, quote, real second option that Jimmy Butler's, quote, tools are being underutilized and blaming the lack of positional size on the roster.

I am so frustrated Dutari ended his email.

Lakup replies, you can't be as frustrated as me.

I am working on it.

It's complicated.

Style of play.

Coach's desires regarding players.

League trends.

Jimmy is not the problem.

And then the guy publishes the exchange on Reddit.

Oh, no.

So people dove into the coach's desires regarding players as a... A Steve Kerr dig?

Yeah, yeah.

Not thinly veiled dig at Steve Kerr.
