Continuity is something this team hasn’t had much of recently, and I think it would help, especially the kind of continuity that comes from having a good team to begin with.
I would love for O-Max to be in the rotation on day one, myself. Not sure he will be, but I am officially boiling over with anticipation for that, and if he can make the kind of impact I hope, that would be a big add right there.
I think if Nico even was looking to make a big move, this was the right answer in the press conference.
I just think we are going to be a little limited this summer. It may be an offseason to look for internal growth and development add a few fringe pieces and keep our chips warm. Eventually they need to upgrade the roster. I just don't think it happens this summer. I would also like to get a better look how the team and youngsters respond after the offseason.
One thing I will be doing this summer. I will try to determine if we would be able to beat any of these trade offers made if we had not made the PJ and Gafford trades. I am guessing for most of them we would have had trouble competing.
Edit- one more thought. I was checking around the Trailblazers boards yesterday seeing how they responded to KOC saying Grant would look great in Dallas. Some of the comments were funny saying Dallas future first round draft picks will probably almost be like second rounders. That is a change from prior discussions.
