Jarred Vanderbilt Discussion: The Vandalorian

What a shame...in a game where we gave up critical offensive rebounds which created extra possessions for Denver where they scored...Vando doesn't see the floor for even 5-10 mins?

I hope and pray that the Lakers are smart and they do not bring Taurean Prince back...need to be Vando/Rui at the forward spots next year with no question about who is playing what minutes.

Also, Vando is eligible to be traded this summer as his extension finally kicks in.

 

Vando is expendable.You can get more value out of a player like Haywood Highsmith who can actually hit the 3 and play defense just as well.

 

highsmith a) plays for the heat, so discount as necessary, and b) has worse advanced numbers across the board than vando. he's only been a net positive for one season of his career (this last one). they're not in the same class.

 

He doesn’t play for anyone at the moment he’s a UFA. I like Vando but he’s a one side of the ball player.Highsmith game is on the rise as a true 3-D player.

 

no, i mean he played for miami, who is becoming famous for getting a lot more out of guys than other teams do.

highsmith is two years older than vando and has only shot well from three one year. with the exception of last year's injury-plagued small sample, vando has been substantially better on both ends than highsmith over the past three years.

 

Fair enough .He can easily become a liability though.Still believe Highsmith is a riser in productivity but we’ll see

 

highsmith is certainly a derrick jones jr late bloomer candidate. i just don't think he's in vando's class. and i'd really hate to sign another miami guy, tbh. just bad vibes now.

 

No more Miami players!!!!
Not for awhile, at least.

 

Soo.. Jared actually had two procedures, one on each foot, done this offseason. Interesting
