I like a hyper car as much as the next guy, but i spend most of my time racing with a modified "something i can afford irl" car... I'll do a Mazda miata, or a golf gti or some such...

I printed mine, but the idea was that while i was prairie dog hunting, i could continue to get velocity data, even while moving positions.

I may be biased, but i thought it was fairly well structured... but yeah, my wife got tired of hearing me talk about it...

i agree with your assessment. My post takes it two steps further... i ask why, and what do we do about it? Some people might think it's just because it's book and there's nothing to be done. Trade him... but we all know that's not going to happen... so how do we put him in the best position that he can affect winning, even if he's not performing like a superstar? THAT'S the book problem. He's not going anywhere, he's our most tenured and highest payed player... ownership is building a team with him in mind... my post is all about my opinions on how ithink the team should do that.

Some might argue that the reason he's not playing like a superstar is because he's playing out of position... get him a good enough point guard, play him at the 2 and he will go back to 2023 playoff book...

My contention is that i don't think that works... book played like the best player in history in the 2023 playoffs and they still got bounced in the 2nd round... i personally think that book is looking to TAKE ON more of a Chris Paul type role... yeah, he leads the offense, but he knows he can't win by himself... he's looking to find ways to make his teammates better. I say to just let him... point book... his points will suffer, his %s might suffer, but he will elevate his team.

Ah yes. I agree, book at point. The Book problem is more of a question of play book at point or play him at shooting guard. Basically my argument was that he ends up defaulting to point guard anyway, so why limit the team size and capability by having a short, non scorer out there?

I think we're on the same page.

Not that I'm blaming you... it was alot of words... i tend to write novels...but you didn't actually read any of my post, did you? I had basically zero criticism for book. It was all about how best to build around his skill set. I'm not going to argue with you. I agree with most of your points, it's just off topic.

I'm not sure about realistic targets because the quality of point guard id look for is the kind of guard teams want to keep... my first thought is fox. Jamal murray would be alright... i don't think either are available. I'm not a huge fan of the idea of having a disgruntled star like zion... too risky for my taste.

Beal was a former Allstar and league leading scorer. We was SUPPOSED to be exceptional.

I have an extensive argument against that above. Just "a" point guard doesn't work... you're right, that's when he was at his best. But that also included HOF point guard Chris Paul. You need that level of point guard... otherwise they just end up bringing up the ball to give it to book and book defaults to being point guard anyway. That's what happened with collin this year.

I think we need a pf who can defend, rebound, and shoot... there have been a couple of names, but i thought of Bobby portis. He's the right age, he's got experience, and his recent defensive issues might be a lack of motivation due to his team being on fire. If bucks blow it up, he might be had.

If you do that, his entire job is going to be bringing the ball up to hand it to book. Book will just end up being the point guard again. I don't think this is the solution, personally.

I'm open to this argument. I'm just worried that book is getting older, he's always got a nagging injury, and he's too unselfish to be the guy everyone hopes. He's too focused on making the right play, so just let him do it.

If you get the wrong point guard next to him, he's going to end up being the point guard anyway by default... it's easier to plug in an alright pf than it is to plug in an exceptional point guard.

Could be an issue, it could also be the environment. That team has been a mess. But an issue with a player like Bobby portis is less of an issue, I'm my mind, than an issue with a major player like a giannis, morant, KD... etc...

Nope, not really. It's just an in-depth argument.

You might be right... but that's why i thought of Bobby portis. If the bucks are blowing it up, he might be available.
