I think it was time for Joe to go somewhere where he could play a role he’s suited for.
If he would’ve been ok being a 20 minute guy, more minutes if he’s hot, then yes a mistake, realistically I don’t think he takes that role here, maybe elsewhere he does, but not here.
JJ and Chance do have higher upside, but they lack proving anything at this level, they could be great, I don’t know, but they both need a substantial jump in production if we’re going to be even a bubble team. Don’t forget, if we’re not going to upgrade at forward and stand pat, lose production at center then we either better be elite at defense or JJ and Chance need to make up the production of Mintz, Joe and Jesse, I don’t see that happening in any stretch of my imagination.
There is a lot more work to be done, to help JJ and Chance be successful here.
