I agree. I think the best definition of what we need is this: a player who you trust to get a bucket/get to the free throw line in the 4th quarter of a playoff game with the shot clock winding down.
Right now we have Luka. J-Rich, Burke and Brunson would be fine as ancillary options. KP can’t really create his own or for others. Ideally it would be 1)Luka, 2)Player X, 3)KP and then Brunson, Rich, Burke, THJ types as needed. Curry was one of those— a 4th option and spot-up shooter.
Beal would be our absolute ideal. But even someone like Kyle Lowry or Derrick Rose would do.
