He showed some promise his first couple seasons, but his shot attempts are going down since then and not up... especially on this whack Pistons team he coud be involved more.

He's never been good. Can't shoot, can't finish with his off hand, plays no defense, does not pass. Too short of a wingspan to play the 5. No business being in the NBA.

At this point I think teams are recognizing hes part of a category of players who can ONLY reach their potential playing alongside the redeeming spirit of LeResurrection.

Theres no real reason for anyone but LAL to invest time into him.


Get it done, Rob.

He'd be awful alongside LeBron. He's a non-shooter with no court vision. His best bet is playing the 5 in China.

He started out good against the Jazz with Kessler on the bench, Was different with Kessler in the game. They lost again. He might be the next Cousins!

Cousins was skilled.

Bagley has maybe the lowest Ast% I have ever seen. There is no way to touch the ball enough to score 10ppg and have that low an ast% without missing 1-2 wide open guys every game. I imagine it is very frustrating to play with this guy.

Indeed he was. Too bad he is a whining POS loser

Ok, but Bagley is that minus skill. He's the guy that was always a massive athletic advantage and never actually learned how to play.

edit: IIRC Bagley has a multi-generational family of whiners that think he's god's gift to bball.

Back to the original question though, the Pistons have the worst spacing in the league. Any minutes you play Bagley just takes away from Cade's effectiveness (and probably Ivey too). Thompson should get all of Bagley's minutes at the 4.
