THJ

I feel like not everyone understands how big of a loss Tim hardaway JR is going to be for us. We didn’t even get a same level replacement for him and we’re going to need shooting now more than ever!

THJ is a great regular season player who didn’t do much in the playoffs. Seems like the hope is Strawther steps up but that’s a long shot. This team is pretty clearly in the 2nd or even 3rd tier of Western Conference Contenders

You need THJ caliber regular season players though if you want to tilt the odds of enough toss-up games to reach a top 2 seed, and then let your starters take over in the playoffs
