Castle is averaging 20 points a game and is an elite defender. He probably makes an all NBA defensive team this season. 
 

And oh yeah, he’s 6’6’’ so he can guard any position. 

You can’t be serious. 

If we're basing this on physical aptitude then we might as well trade for Jalen Green.  

I'm not saying your position is ridiculous, just that it's inconsistent.  Castle needs to clean up some things, so does Sheppard.  I like that Sheppard is hitting 40% of his threes on a team that needs that more than it does Castle's usage rate.

Castle is not a Point Guard that can be a primary ball handler and run the offense. Maybe he will become that one day, but he is not that now and wouldn’t be on this team. 

Reed isn’t either for that matter, but he did shoot 52% from 3 during college and had an insane 67%eFG for a guy taking a lot of distant shots. The team needs him to grow up more and get more confident in his shooting. He needs to be a reliable 3pt machine to earn his minutes, but he’s only 21 and has plenty of time to do that. 

Holiday needs some run as PG for a few games to see if he can do it. He’s not a bad player, but he’s the best option to step into that role with FVV hurt. 
 

I still think they trade for a PG in a couple months, but the market still needs to shake out who will be available. Derrick White has been shitty this year, but would be an excellent fit on this team. Not sure if the Celtics would part ways with him, but the possibility of those Suns picks could entice them. Plenty of opportunities ahead, and I trust this front office to do it right.
