Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3687236, member: 2117"] They have a really good playmakers. McCoughtry routinely gets great midrange looks. Young is a terrific playmaker too, as she is great at attacking the basket. Wilson is also tremendous attacking the basket from 15 feet. So is Hamby. They don't need playmakers, they need perimeter threats and McBride is one of the best shooters in the league. This hasn't been her best year and she's been quite mediocre in the series, but she's a career 15ppg scorer and 37% shooter from deep. Vegas needs outside shooting to compete for a title. They're dead last in 3pt FGM and FGA by a big margin. A Gray is good off the bounce but only a career 32% 3pt shooter, same with Hayes (32% 3pt). T. Mitchell is a 27% career 3pt shooter and 36% FG shooter. None of those are going to be a better option than McBride who excels at moving off the ball in catch and shoot situations. They don't need a whole lot else from her based on player personnel, but she has to hit a decent percentage for Vegas to compete for a title. What I think Vegas needs is a better PG. Someone who can knockdown shots and distribute the ball. Allen is more of a backup PG since she doesn't have any range on her shot. DRob could be a good fit for a team with established shooters, but her lack of jumpshot makes her a poor fit for Vegas. Plum next year could be a great fit but she is a wildcard. She's one of the streakiest players in the league in that she can be an outstanding shooter or dreadful. [/QUOTE]
