Perhaps one or two of our two way guys develop like Jimmy Butler or Giannis, perhaps we make a trade, or perhaps we land a free agent stud in a year or two who wants to join a flock of condors for protection.

There's no FA studs until 2019 with a near 30 year old Kemba and I'm not buying that someone on this roster becomes an offensive stud. Trade has to happen.

There were a lot of teams helping us from making bad decisions. Young going 3. Someone picking Graham before we did at 35. Someone picking bonga.

I mean we will eventually if we want to do more than just crap out in the second round at best. But we can take the next step in our development by junking up games while Clifford schemes our points.

What's nice is, our team will be well ready for whatever offensive engine we put in and have him surrounded with lengthy versatile defenders who can shoot the ball and hit 3s.

Yea the Mikal Bridges trade was a massive head scratcher. A super athletic guy who can't shoot and a future pick for a 3 and D guy when your two best players are a 6'9 ball handler who can't shoot and a dominant inside outside center and you're trying to win now... Bizarre. On top of that they broke Mikals mum's heart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted June 22, 2018 We don’t “need” anything right now. The expectation isn’t to compete for a title next year. We improved lastnight and I’m sure we’ll continue to cleanup and rebuild our roster this summer. Time is on our side. Nothing needs to get rushed that’s how you end up with average players and a poor fitting roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We never capitalize on opportunities and instead keep kicking the can down the road. Eventually it'll be 2030. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fan for too long 2 530 Report post Posted June 22, 2018 Look at the bucks they are set to dominate for years. All we need is our 15th pick to be an outlier. Oh wait Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
