Austin Reaves Discussion: How Much Is He Worth?

Good they can get more in a trade now

 

It'll be amusing if some posters get their wish and we trade Austin for an aging star and then we're desperate for a secondary ballhandler. Seriously people, go look at NBA salary rankings and see who gets paid $30-40M. Newsflash: a lot of them are 3rd options. Some aren't even that tier.

 

Good game overall got targeted a lot early on defense which wasn't great but good for him to get his offense going without getting any calls

Just insane the whistle and the flopping OKC does - no one can make complain about AR on that team. They're whole team is a bunch of actors

 

Good for you Austin - take the fine. As long as OKC doesn't win the title I'm good




Look at this s***

 

There must have been a sniper in the arena. If i was playing these suckers, i would give them reasons to fall, real talk. I would also lose a decent amount of my paycheck, i like to run my mouth. If i was given a microphone and an audience... watch out. Alien boy would lose his s***.

 

Well on the bright side on things I guess Austin is back to being a max player?

 

He explains what happened in his post game interview



Apparently the ref yelled at him in his face during that jump ball jockeying, Austin felt disrespected.

 

Well that would just be a dumb trade by Rob and company.As I have stated multiple times you can get multiple pieces for him.Anyone who has watched these first two games understands signing one guy in free agency isn’t going to get it done against OKC or SA

 

Guess this one was Austin’s fault too.
He only went 10-16 and 3-6 from three.
8-10 from the stripe, 6 assists
31 points
Yup, all his fault.
Trade him for Kessler.

 

Thank you for reviving the Austin thread. Reeves gives it his all even after being banged up. He played a great game. Thank you Austin, you are much appreciated.

 

Crickets. As expected.

 

Let’s hear all the great secondary ball handlers/scorers we are going to trade for to replace AR.

 

Stat padding empty points … come on man.

 

Austin looked more like himself which was good to see. I had doubts but didn't express them here due to his poor performance last playoffs but he kept fighting. That's all you can ask for. It looked like he just needed to get himself back in game rhythm after his injury which is to be expected.

 

I have never in thousand years could imagine that Austin would be this pissed off at refs

 

Fantastic,good for him.Still not remotely good enough to make this team champions.Again, It’s not that he isn’t a very good player it’s that he is the asset to use to acquire the multiple pieces this team needs.

 

It’s more that Luka is on the f****** bench and weaknesses with Dalton, Maxi and Vando slots than an AR problem!

 

Who’s OKC secondary ball handler right now?
