2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[loki]

I think it's pretty safe to say now that the new big they get in the offseason needs to be a shooting threat. 5 out is more important for Luka than an elite rim runner. The offense with Powell is too easily countered by a good rim protector. Clippers guarded roll men really well with Batum as their 5 last year too. Defense is cool and all but just make the offense as Luka friendly as possible. If the Mavs had Gobert, he and Ayton would be neutralizing each other, but I'm pretty sure the paint would be clogged for Luka/JB. Need to keep it clean.

Still plenty of the usual targets. Wood Collins Hayes Turner. That actually makes a real sentence. Hayes' shot still a WIP but I'll still include him due to the perfect ceiling. I'm out on the non-3 point shooting bigs. Maybe throw Randle in there too since he's likely getting moved.

Speaking of Batum, I'd love to swipe him for the taxpayer MLE if they can land one of the bigs you mentioned. It could be possible now that LAC has extended RoCo.
