      Worst case, he can still provide some vet leadership to that locker room, especially with Rubio gone and that’s never a bad thing.

          Jarrett Culver... I kind of hate when this happen to players. I kind of thought They would of loved him last year. Anthony Edwards is basically going to take all the minutes. I just saw him shooting from 30 feet on IG. That's scary [emoji23].

          But Culver is also a very solid defender. It's just his shooting

            It's going to be scary when he's bricking contested 30 footers off the backboard because the type of shooter he believes himself to be and the type of shooter Minnesota wants him to be isn't the type of shooter he actually is.

              I don't know about that. I usually agree with you. But when it comes to shooting. I believe anyone can develop into a shooter. And in my opinion, he has a good foundation to be a better shooter. I mentioned a few times he's likes to fade away at times. He's seem to figure that out.

                  He just has really bad shot selection.

                    Think it's far too early to label him as a bust. I think he made some strides as a rookie and didn't even have that bad of a rookie campaign. Every bit as good as guys like Murray, Vassell, Lonnie, looked in their first year or two and I know you aren't/weren't already giving them the bust label.

                    Think he was set back some last year on a roster with guys like Edwards, Russell, Beasley, he already wasn't a guy you want to slot at SF to begin with but he ended up basically out of the SG rotation with all those guys, and behind Okogie and Edwards at SF.. Which makes sense.

                    Might make more sense for him with Memphis. I'm assuming he'll eat into Grayson Allen's minutes with him gone. And though he will still be competing with Bane, Brooks, Melton, and now Williams, those guys spend lots of time at the 3 and only Brooks is likely to log big starters minutes.

                          This

                          I think there is value in how hard Pat Bev plays on that end, and he has great hands too, but I consider Bledsoe a much better overall defender. I think he's stronger, more switchable, and just offers more in terms of "team defense" than Pat does.

                          Don't get me wrong I thought a guy with Pat's mentality was going to fit much better next to guys like Kawhi and PG than it did, I think everyone thought that, but I think his overall defensive value was definitely showcased playing next to truly good defenders and not "sticking out" on a team next to guys like Lou Will and Gallo.

                          I could see some considering it a loss. I think Rondo's experience and theoretical fit with a whole team, meaning a healthy Kawhi, could still have great playoff value like Rondo with the Lakers.. But outside of that I think people are really overexaggerating what Pat Bev brought to THAT team, and completely forgetting/ignoring how valuable Bledsoe was for Milwaukee.

                          If we are to assume he can bring that same benefit to LAC I think this was a upgrade for them, and Bledsoe is a guy Lue wanted even back in Cleveland. If the uptick in play he got out of Reggie Jackson can be replicated onto Bledsoe as well then a potential ceiling with Bledsoe feels much higher to me than where they were before the trade.

                              While I agree. But that sounds like something that could fixed with a 19 year old after having his first season in the NBA.
