With free agency kicking off tomorrow I'm really wondering what we're going to do if anything. I have no read on if we'll try and add vets to be competitive or just random end of bench vets. Or maybe add a youngish player to play a role who could at least be a positive asset a year from now even if they're not part of the core? We obviously have the full MLE and the BAE and 2 open roster spots (would become 3 if we waive Bacon). We also have 2 2 way spots and again I have no read on what we'll do with them. We haven't snapped up any of the interesting UFA yet so maybe we'll see how Summer League goes before offering them? Give some of the SL guys a reason to play hard maybe? Hopefully we get involved in trades with the TPE and pick up extra assets. That might fill a roster spot or two.

Yes, I meant Moe. Sorry for not clarifying -

And to be clear I didn't actually compare him. I just said the way he knew and remembered the intricacies of game plans from months earlier reminded me of Battier because i remembered reading/hearing that he was a meticulous defensive player who used to watch a tonne of film and have huge packets of information about the guys he had to guard. -

We can’t afford Oubre, he’s kind of pointless to talk about. We need vets that don’t mind sitting and mentoring and being injury relief. -

I think he means his brother Moe Wagner which in that case he can play the 4 or 5. Franz can play 3 or 4 and maybe the 5 later on in his career when he fills out a bit more. - Today

As I've said a lot of times, I know nothing about college players, but are we really considering Wagner as a center?
-
No to Oubre, I've read recent content on him that doesn't really make him look like a good team player. My wishes for free agents are something we talked about recently: good veterans that leads the young guys in the right way, not only in games but in training and in everything else too. People that want to improve every single day. Selfless guys that can play 30 minutes one day, and have no problem to let the other shine and play 15 the next one. Guys that helps to win but also to improve for the future.

Here's an idea that keeps coming to me, but I haven't shared yet: What if teams decided to play a 3 center rotation every single game? We could do it with Carter, Bamba and Wagner. Big guys are usually lumbering and some struggle with consistent effort (Bamba), so maybe letting them go balls to the wall for short stretches of time would be beneficial to the team. Could also help with having 18 fouls to spend on the Embiids and Jokics of the world -

TPE for Young? -
I want a small forward
-
Trying to think about who we could take on with the TPE. Satoransky maybe? Bulls need to clear space for a big offer sheet to Lonzo Ball.

Let's blow the roof off this place. If he really grew two inches over the summer i'm going to call him the next Dirk Nowitzski. -

Shane is actually a great comparison when discussing a smart student of the game. Also, CT’s right more than he’s wrong - don’t mess! -
I would be happy to make a run at these guys in free agency Kelly Oubre, Kelly Olynyk, Ben McLemore Rondae Hollis-Jefferson,
-
The chemistry on this roster is going to be absolutely beautiful
-
Definitely sign Moe Wagner.. Would like to maybe get Josh Hart maybe Avery Bradley but to be honest I want full youth movement. I think our guys we have are such high character people that they are so mature the vets aint needed as much as we may believe. T Ross and Harris are excellent vets.. Isaac is a pastor ... Markelle is a leader vocally and on the court. I could go on.

MP i really feel a massive change in energy and direction for us finally!! Hope you are more than good my boy

Did you compare Franz to Shane Battier? Not that us here in Orlando don't appreciate your input from across the pond. -
Well boys and girls I guess it's on to free agency. It looks like we have 12 under contract with the need of a third center and maybe a wing or two. Do we go with a couple of grizzled vets or fully embrace the youth movement? Does anyone think RJ can move to the "position less" small forward spot?

This may have already been posted (I know Jay has been posting a bunch of cool stuff about Suggs and Franz) but I just watched it and Im just so hyped to see how Franz develops. It's just so obvious that he understands the game. And he's obviously someone who knows the game plan his coaches lay out, multiple times in the video he alludes to game plans for games that happened months before. Kind of made me think of Shane Battier. -
