I just mentioned the rights to Jonah Bolden. I really like Khyri Thomas in the draft. I also think there are several potential high risk/high reward players in the 20's or early 30's that I would swing for the fences with. I love Mikal Bridges on this current team but unless NY wants to dump a ton of salary and give us the 9th pick for doing so that dream is unrealistic.
So Jonah Bolden or Khyri Thomas is gonna come in and take minutes from Mo Harkless and Zach Collins as rookies and this is a better team?! Hahahaha! Haha!
There was a giant hole in there starting lineup at SG... there were minutes for the taking... also Mitchell was a lotto pick... you are comparing apples to oranges
I’d be ok seeing what a new coach could do, even tho I don’t think any coach could make CJ pass... unfortunately Stotts will never be fired because he is a nice guy
CJ did say he was going to work on his passing this offseason. He said he has to get better at the pick and role. That's a good thing.
Between Bolden, Thomas, another pick in the mid 20's, other trades, and the tax-MLE I believe there would be ways to make this team much better. If just one of the 3 rookies is a home run then we are looking pretty good. Bolden has been playing professionally so he wouldn't be a typical rookie. There is just as good of a chance of that happening as whatever draft pick we get being better than Dame.
To add to this, if a guy like Khyri Thomas turns out to be really good then THAT allows us to trade CJ to balance the roster because we would already have his replacement and could just take the best deal. In most of your proposals are SG and SF situation would be worse than it is now and having bad wing play is something I think we can all agree with is hard to overcome.
You think a team is going to downgrade their draftpick to take on ET’s atrocious contract?! Wow... just wow
