Just putting it out there, I get it we're pretty guard heavy as it is but Ellis is still available and he's CERTAINLY an upgrade from shane Larkin @ 5'11. We sure could use the scoring. Wonder what suitors he has. Surprised he hasn't signed with OKC.
I don't agree that he's "certainly" an upgrade from Shane Larkin at this point in their careers, and I am not overvaluing Shane Larkin. Ellis is legitimately that bad.
Over the last 6 seasons, teams only average 100 points per 100 possession while he is on the court, which is poor. Smart, Rozier, and Larkin are all better at running an offense and getting everyone involved.
And that doesn't even include his awful defense. 4 inches does not make him a better defender. He would immediately become our worst defender. He constantly puts stress on the rest of his team with his reaches and cheating. He plays no positional defense and "Oley" defense on ball.
