Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Sheesh. The NBA is telling us that they no longer value this player archetype. I will need to adjust my own view of player value going forward. I've been way off on a number of contracts this off-season.

It tells me it is going to really important for PJ and Gafford to get off to good starts.   I think both are good players.  Both had off years last year.   It seems outside of a handful of guys these type of players are getting squeezed.  Both in years and total salary.   

While good players, I don't think many teams are hot and heavy paying a good center pair 18 million or paying PJ who will have a 22 million payday in the future.
