You are dreaming. He is a good roleplayer, but not a franchise player. His worth is solely based of what could be, not what he brings now. If the Pels want Poeltl, they are making a win now move, and Poeltl right now has a higher value as player than herb right now.
No. You're dreaming. I'm rubber, you're glue.
Outside of legit superstars, Jones skillset is the most desired in the league. He's cut from the same cloth as OG.
Herb Jones right now, is playing a supporting role, he does it well i might add, but he is nowhere near, where you believe he is.
What you do right now is overvalueing one Player, while undervalueing the other Player.
Yes Herb has room to grow, but as of now, he is not a franchise player. He is one of many good young prospects, but not THE propspect you claim.
To further the argument: The NBA slowly shifts back to a Center Dominated league. Outside of the established Superstars, Jokic, Embid, Giannis, there is Chet and Victor upcoming and maybe Zion who turns a corner. And thats only the top Players.
Means, that Defensive minded center will be in demand, to play against those Monsters. That alone increases Poeltls value, who just entered his prime.
Who said Jones was a prospect? I don't consider him a prospect. He is what he is right now which is one of the best perimeter defenders in the league and a super efficient scorer. He is an OG level player on nearly 1/3 of OG's soon to be salary.
Poeltl is a very good player but easier to replace than Jones imo. Every team in the league wants 2-3 OGs or Jones's.
