My thoughts exactly. I assumed Otto would get some burn this season. If we weren't going to play the 3rd overall pick then we should have just picked Nerlens. Otto needs to be sent to the D league so he can gain some confidence. Letting him rot on the bench is pointless.
That's not true at all. Wall has to lead his team in scoring every night, Lowry doesn't have as much responsibility as Wall and puts up inferior numbers.

Lillard isn't the best player on his team. Aldridge is the key reason for their success. I don't see how Wall and Lillard are comparable. Two different players in way different situations. Plus Lillard was a 22 year old rookie. Put Lillard in Wall's situation and he would be an afterthought...
It's too early to say Curry will make the HOF. Remember he has injury problems. For all we know he could be out of the league in four years because of injuries. Penny Hardaway had a way better start to his career than Curry and he isn't sniffing the hall of fame.
Lawson, Lowry, and Conley have no case imo. Lillard has a case because he is such a good outside shooter but he isn't the passer or defender Wall is. Also I don't think he has a lot of upside compared to guys like Wall and Curry. I guess it just comes down to what you want from your PG. If you...
The reason why Wall has an impact on his teams W-L record and Irving doesn't is because Wall does more than just score. Wall is a mini-Lebron, he makes his teammates better with his vision. Also he plays good defense.
Wall is top 5 right now. You can't name 5 pg's currently playing that are better than him. Chris Paul and Curry (even though he sucks on defense) are the only PG's clearly better than him right now. Drose doesn't count because he isn't healthy. Westbrook and Tony Parker have a case. John Wall is...
Beal can shoot circles around Harden. Beal alongside Durant would be a nice combo. Plus Beal plays off the ball and Harden needs to handle the ball to score.
John Wall is one of only five players in NBA history to average at least 16 points, eight assists and four rebounds through the first 200 games of his pro career ... joining The Big O, Magic, Damon Stoudamire and CP3. -From Marc Stein's power rankings
Yeah Wall's floor game was perfect last night. Even though his shot was clanking, he set up his guys. Once Porter, Al, and Beal return we can go from the worst bench in the NBA to hopefully an above average bench. We really need Maynor to develop chemistry with the bench unit.
Paul George didn't even shoot 42 from the field last season, let that sink in. Melo as a 19 year old rookie shot higher than George last year and put up better numbers while leading his team to the playoffs. And no George hasn't had more playoff success than Melo has. Leading your team to the...
Exactly, if you want to knock Melo for his defense and passing than that's fair. But to say they guy isn't a good number 1 offensive option is false. He is an elite offensive option who has lead his team to the playoffs every season in his career. Out of current players, only Melo and Duncan can...
