The CP3-thing seems nuts and overly risky but if we were to bring him in as the nr 3 guy that would actually make quite a lot of sense:
- THJr + Lee for CP3 is plenty enough incentive for OKC due to the capsavings
- At that point we'd look at a Doncic - Porzingis - CP3 core...
...and then we'd reach the 2020 draft at some point in the near future where we will have three selections. The DAL 1st (~ #20), the GS 2nd (~ #31-35) and the Utah 2nd (~ #45+)
- We could make all three selections and then use those rookie players in SnT-scenarios for guys such as Bogdanovic.
For instance if we were to get Bogdan on a multi year deal and boom.........you're looking at Luka+KP+CP3+Bogdan main group from PG to PF while you'd still have a bunch of role players on the roster like Curry/Kleber/Powell/Wright/Brunson/Jackson/DFS. You'd have to use one or two to get the SnT for Bogdan to work out financially but at that point we'd still be absolutely loaded.
E.g. with Wright + Boban going to SAC:
PG: CP3 | Brunson
SG: Bogdan | Curry
SF: Doncic | Finney-Smith
PF: Porzingis | Jackson
C: Kleber | Powell
Doesn't have to be Bogdan but the main point is: even after a CP3 for Lee/THJr deal we'd have avenues to bolster out the rotation further due to the picks we will have available for trades come draft night.
+ MLE etc come July. We could build a really deep team around Luka/KP/CP3/Bogdan.
Some stats on CP3:
16ppg on 60+% TS
42% from three
86% FT on 5 FTAs per game
+10 NetRTg
+3 OBPM and neutral DBPM ==> overall +3 BPM
84th percentile as a PnR ballhandler
22% usage (for some perspective: Seth is around 15-16% right now, Harrison Barnes was around 25% in his first two seasons in DAL)
20+ PER
He's still a REALLY good player in general, highly efficient and can play his role on offense playing from the backseat. I'd imagine his raw numbers to go down a bit but we'd bring in an elite floor spacer/passer and another high level PnR ballhandler whenever Luka needs a break. Also he's still getting to the FT line some, more than dudes like Barnes ever did for us.
