Okay sooooo I have been on the Iggy/Adams train since Preseason...
BUT... during the summer? I wanted us to try to trade for Jrue... Jrue is huge target I want next to Luka. I think he would be the perfect defensive guard that we imagined DSJ could be next to Luka.
Jrue
Luka
Iggy
KP
Adams
(the above is more about defensive lineups... obviously Luka is the actual PG on offense)
That would be my absolute dream lineup, that I think is not outside of reach. Jrue is the biggest get. Adams might be hard to get after giving up the assets for Jrue... but Iggy should be easiest to nab.
The defense in that lineup, the spacing, the ball handling/movement, the ability to clean up the glass in our front court duo, and the ability to defend every position with this lineup...
This lineup makes us contenders IMO...
2025 1st Pick, THJ, GS 2nd, Mavs 2nd, Justin Jackson
That would get us Jrue... I doubt any team is going to beat that. That is nearly two first round draft picks plus a second, THJ and JJ for Jrue? its a solid pickup, and saves them a ton of money.
2x 2nds, Lee, for Iggy
Then you have a bit of a glut at guard... you could spare either Curry or Delon or Brunson as a piece to pry Adams away...
I keep hearing people say RoCo and yes I would like him too but I don't see it. I dont think he is coming here. The above are all reasonable targets, and I think we have the assets to get them all now...
Adams will be the hardest to get after gutting the cupboard for Jrue... but I still think it is possible... Iggy should be a no brainer... we need to pick him up
Jrue could be had... and I don't think any team is going to beat the above offer for him
