This team is cooked for the year, even if they make the playoffs. You want Gaff on your team for the regular season, but he’s a pure backup in the playoffs. Sometimes, you just accept reality. I’m down for adding a cheap top 10 pick in an excellent draft. Thats the opportunity that doesn’t come again. Nico does a pretty good job drafting. Pretty much every championship caliber team plays this game.
And, they’re not making the playoffs without winning in the play in. The 6th seed is out of reach. It’s far better to regroup and come back strong revitalized next year.
Are you talking about when we tanked two games at the end of the season? That is completely different than tanking over half a season.
It all depends on Luka. If he is able to come back relatively soon, I don't see any chance they shut him down for the rest of the season. If he can't come back for a long while and we dig a big enough hole, there might be a conversation, but I think we are a ways from that yet.
