The reality is that quality defense is generally under valued in the market, and what we need next to Luka is a good offensive player that can do some playmaking and some creation but importantly a high level perimeter defender. That player will be gettable when we have access to our picks.
No argument that Jrue would be ideal. To me, Dejounte Murray is a younger Jrue in many ways. Regarding trading for such a piece, I think the asking price of 3 1sts and John Collins highlights how unrealistic it would be to think expirings plus picks could get you there.
