    Just kidding. Like your posts. Although, Pat Beverly is one of the most overrated players of all time.

    Everybody has a price but…

    Keeping and building our team around Amen. this means surrounding him with shooting.

    his unique size and defensive gifts definitely gives us some wiggle room on how we build out the roster.

    His issues with the jump-shot and his youth need to be configured in the coaching scheme and what the players put around him. we pretty much all know that.

    in my mind, after Thompson is where a lot of the guest work depends in it just is dependent on how far you want to take the thoughts. Also depends on what they are doing with KD. For this exercise, I am going to assume that both parties want to go their separate ways and we are going to be forced to keep the coaches. I do think that we will bring in somebody to take a larger role in being the offensive coordinator. so going on those assumptions as I look to create a team that is relevant. this is not the sell everything for a two-year window plan. But I’m sure I’ll get to that as bored.

    Build Around
    Amen
    Reed
    Smith

    FVV-I believe he will extend w/us for an extra year or two at essentially a discounted rate considering this season.

    Adams-same, Over the next few years, there will be some games that he is not playable because of matchup or injury. At some point, who knows maybe he becomes the third center In a few years. I also really want Smith to take on more minutes at the five over the next few year.

    Okogie-Hoping We can re sign him for a reasonable value. Not sure if we’ll be able to do this, but I would love to get him at a bit more than we are paying DFS.

    Eason. Match Anything in restricted free agency up to 20 Million. Would have to rethink it if it’s more than four years. I still think it would be treatable though hopefully.

    Jeff Green is 13th man for his last year.


    Trade
    KD
    DFS
    Sengun
    Capela

    KD/DFS/Capela for

    Herro (signs 3 year 115 million extension with a mutual option after 28/29.
    Mitchell
    Jovic

    Sengun- I love the player, but the fact that he needs to operate out of the mid range area so often without a reliable Shot will hamstring us and last we specifically devise an offensive system around him. And I do not believe he is compatible with Thompson because of this. It isn’t that they can’t shoot the three it is just that they are both so dependent on operating in that mid area.

    Sengun for NAW and Okongwu.

    Okongwu/Adams
    Smith/Jovic
    NAW/Eason
    Herro/Reed
    Amen/FVV

    Mitchell allows us to put amen all over the court. considering injuries and the fact that atoms will not necessarily play a ton. That is a great 11 players to work with

    Well, the coach threw the players under the bus. Now the player threw him under the bus. Jabari is basically saying that the other team's coach did a better job.
