I just don't think a player like that is available, if they are, I don't know that I want to pay the cost. Sure, if we could swap AD for that guy, I'm all-in but it's not happening.

I also don't know that I want to put Lively in a box as a high PnR player only. I think he can develop an outside shot to some degree, and I want to see him used even more with DHO's. Either way, his value is on the defensive end. With Flagg, Kyrie, AD there's going to be a lot of ISO until Flagg shows that he can take advantage of defenses in the PnR.

Ya I think that Lively can still produce without having to be the roll man all the time.  Having perimeter players who can simply beat their man off the dribble and get two feet in the paint could be helpful for him as well.  Lots of Flagg highlights of him throwing lobs to people waiting in the dunker's spot.  He's also got a nice little jump hook going that can be utilized more.
