Flagg Davis Irving Thompson and Lively with Gafford and PJ off the bench then you have Williams Max and Naji that is a 10 player strong team as is. If healthy and playing well that team can go all the way. If Nico improves that and he will then it will become a stronger team. He has to trade off guys like Hardy Omax Powell and Martin to find others that service the teams needs then he is taking out the trash and turning it into more useful assets and I am hoping he can pull that off. He brought in bigs like Kai and Moses last season when the core was injured and they performed well enough to keep us in the play in. Brandon Williams was a find in the 2 way contract process. As many screw ups as he had he is looking like a genius now that he bet the Luka trade would work out and we would end up winning the first pick with the bonus being AD and Max are now here as well.
He is going to get his chance to rebuild the team because he is not getting fired this close to the draft. If things work out we may be stuck with him for a good long time. I see there being a lot of talent at the end of the 2nd round that could be available. If he is working on securing more 2 way contracts to offer to the remaining draft picks that he is farming, that influx of talent could solve our need to secure replacements for our aged vets. Davis Thompson and Irving are nearing their golden years and won't be here forever.
If Nico gets lucky and a major PG talent falls through the cracks and he gets them with a 2 way contract then he can keep the guys everyone is talking about trading and not trade off anyone for a temporary fill in behind Irving. We all know that money will dry up and some veteran PG will be left out there to take for a vet min.
We can just wait till then and get something better than a rookie and not need to make any trades at all. No matter what I am not trading Gafford or PJ till I see what we have and how the pieces fit together. TDL I may want to move assets but not till there is a proper evaluation of the team and its ability to play together with our new generational talent.
Only trades I want to see taking place are take out the trash kinds of trades.
Hardy and Omax not as much as Powell and Martin who are looking cashed. Hardy may develop into an asset we can sell for more at the TDL and OMax could come out hitting his 3's and look like a Siakam starter kit. You can gamble on them improving and sell them to the lower teir teams for picks.
