One playoff run. He is also expiring.

I am not really sure I understand why. Why would you kill your flexibility in advance? Isn't a one year trial perfect to get an impression how grown up he really is? I don't think it would be a big problem to resign him with the bird rights. If he is a good fit, no problem to pay him 20 per. If he doesn't work out, we can let him walk. If Giannis comes knocking, we will have to get rid of him anyway
If we really like him, let's keep him. If not, why are we giving up significant assets. Morris was probably viewed as the final piece for a championship run (good catch on my 2 years mistake). Is Schroder that for us? I guess it depends on the cost. If the cost is high, then I want to keep him. If we don't want to keep him, I don't want to pay a high cost for a rental.
BTW, if you add Schroder and can add one more piece to the front-court, then I'm ready to go to war with what we have. If the front court player isn't too old, you can keep the band together for a fairly good run of time.
