But why would those ever be the only options?Damn it Lee, I didn't want to make this a thing.....
This team as built isn't a contender. Lots of good pieces but it's just not there. Maybe if mobley takes a huge step forward, Mitchell signs up long term, Merrill becomes decent on the defensive side, garland gets a lot better in the final 3 minutes of the half. Then maybe we are talking.
But I'm not making that bet.
If the options are just keep doing the same thing with a new coach or go trade garland for a 1 year LeBron rental and make a go at it... Well I'm making a go at it
I'd hate to throw away the majority of Mitchell and Allen's primes with a mediocre remaining roster because we got impatient with an ancient LeBron rental. All for an off chance that it might gel in time to compete once. I'd rather leave the Suns to do that sort of team building.
If Garland has to go, IMO, you look to solutions that match the team's timeliness.
