Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Smitty]

I think Morez getting significant minutes at the 4 and 5 will be a hit to Gafford/PJ minutes, especially if Lively is remotely healthy.  Its hard to rebound your value when you are not on the court (more of an issue for Gafford than PJ).

And if Lively is not healthy (most likely scenario) then you have MoJo as the starting 5 for the next decade+

I think it's difficult to separate what's best for next year and what's best for the future. At least for me. I'm impatient and want them to make all of the necessary moves right away. We don't know what we don't know about Lively's long term health/outlook. We also don't really know the true trade value of the current Vets. Without that information it's difficult for us to have well-informed opinions.
