    Dame and Collins are on my first tier. Nurkic is on my second tier. Not quite untouchable but close. Everyone else can be considered a trade chip. Sorry I'm not putting Shabazz or Vonleh down just because they are playing well and they might be fan favorites.

    Like who? There simply aren't very many out there, let alone available ones.

    Keep all the white guys except Jake, Pat, and Meyers.
    Oh yeah, keep Lillard. And maybe a Slavic guy.

    Popovich just manufactures them. Good shooters are easy to find, i.e. in the late 1st round. Teammates can cover their defensive weaknesses. So McCollum would be cheap to replace, with Napier or a rookie. With McCollum's big reputation, we could get someone authentically good at say PF, not some $30 million flimflam man like him.

    Speaking of a $3 flimflam man, you sleight-of-handed Nurkic for Collins.

    That's the problem I'm having. Ideally, I think the best candidate is Paul George. But he would be a horrible trade at this point because he's a free agent after this year. If he was signed to an extension he would be perfect.

    Seems to me that first , we need a new system, then decide who fit in or not.

    Guys I really like to see what they could do with more imagination are Pat, Collins, CJ, Biggie

    Guys I really dont care what happens to them are Dame, Chief, ML, and the rest of the also rans..
