I wonder whether Carlisle rates Bitadze. I still think his upside is Nurkic. Been ABA MVP like Jokic/Saric at a young age. Good rebounder/shotblocker and shown some potential in other areas. He´d be a great back-up legit C.
Maybe Carlisle prefers precious veteran Tristan Thompson as Turner´s primary back-up and I. Jackson as the top prospect at PF.
If they tank hard, they could also get a PF/C in the draft.
I´d take either or even both of Rubio + Warren for THJ. Good chance you can sign them to cheap extensions. You want veteran help in positions of need. They are it. Rubio is the PG + veteran leader + defensive guard you want off the bench and Warren can be that microwave scorer.
But that is probably a stretch, although if you think about it, I doubt either Rubio or TJ Warren have much attachment or interest to play for rebuilding Indiana.
Maybe I´ll lay off the crackpipe now and use a Craig pipe.
How about
Rubio for THJ + Boban + Moses Brown
Craig + Bitadze for the TPE and two future 2nd round picks.
