2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[mvossman]

Sac just getting off of Buddy makes me think they might have some PTSD on that type of player, which is why I’ve steered away from THJ for RH trade talk. That and THJ being s shooter that can’t shoot this year makes me believe we’ll have a hard time moving off his deal next season. On top of that, getting RH here while keeping MK with the role he has taken on since the trade, gives us 3 bigs that should see time, but only  maybe about 60 mins (at most, but probably less) to split between them.


I guess you can then say package MK with someone/thing to get the big wing we need. I just think making moves that create the need for another move is cumbersome.

Maxi has taken on that role out of necessity due to how thin we now are at center.  I feel like the fact that he can provide quality backup minutes at both the 4 and the 5 provides a lot of value even when adding Holmes.  I would definitely prefer to have him over THJ, especially given their contracts, and don't feel like that trade would require us to make another move.  A Holmes/Powell center rotation and DFS/Maxi 4 rotation make a ton of sense.  I think if the THJ for Holmes was the only move we make, it would be a successfully offseason.
