Id be fine with DJJ being back and Josh Green being back but my 1st exploration this offseason would be to find someone better than those two.

Luka
Kyrie
Lively
find a guy that can challenge or eclipse PJ Washington for 4th best player

I agree with this.  I want DJJ back.  He fit in well and still has growth to his game.  Is he a starter longterm?  That is tbd. I think both parties would line me to find a way to make it work.

I am just against using Hardaway and a future first to clear up room.  Those are two decent assets.  Hardaway is decent at the deadline as expiring.  A future first needs to be used to draft a young kid or as a way to get a legit starting wing.   I don’t like using both assets to resign DJJ.  Now if you could move Hardaway and a second for air….that is a different story
