Cautiously optimistic. BI essentially said he’s willing to shoot more threes when playing with a PG who can facilitate. The stats of prior seasons do support that as well. Thing is, it’s a contract year for BI and I worry he may not be willing to play off ball a bit more as it may cause a slight dip in his stats, and while it is unfair, teams will use that against you in contract negotiations, sometimes even if it’s for the good of the team. I don’t really worry about Z outside of him coming into the season hopefully not having to play himself into shape and injuries. Murray I’m skeptical on. I liked how he played in SA and he looked good when he was playing in ATL when Trae was off the floor, but I do kinda fear that we have too many months to feed and that it may take the ball away from Z a bit more than it should. This doesn’t even mention CJ, Trey, or (to a lesser extent offensively) Herb. All I know is I do not envy Willie Green rn. I’m curious to see how he manages (or fails) to make this work

I want to be optimistic, but I really don’t know how we’re running lineups. CJ, Murray, BI, Herb, Zion all seem to starting, but we know that’s not going to work. So I want to see how we’re running this to make it work. Not sure how Coach Green is handling it.

BI will perform better with a true PG. so better than last year. If BI shoots 3s, even better
