For me the plan is very simple.
Item 1, plan A:
trade Wright+(if needed) salary fillers+ (if needed) pick(s) for a better fitting expiring player. Who that might be, we discussed many times. It makes us better now and keep flexible for 2021. If we can get good player like Schroeder - great. If best we can do is something like Wright+Jackson for James Johnson or Wright for Snell - still good. Perhaps Wright+Jackson+#18 for Snell and Kennard?
Item 1, plan B:
if no trade is found, keep still, wait for TDL. Worst case, we flip Wright next offseason - it will be cheaper because he will be expiring
Item 2, plan A:
Sign someone for MLE. I guess plan A (and the only plan) would be a one year deal, although I would personally prefer a four year value deal than a meh player on one year deal (meh because good players took longer term deals elsewhere). It might be better to keep this MLE player and get rid of someone else (like Powell) to free cap space in 2021.
Item 3 (optional): upgrade our non Wright longer term contracts (DFS, Curry, Maxi) + (optional) assets for better players on expiring contracts. Like Curry for JRich ideas. It makes us better short term and increases flexibility in 2021. Only execute if something good is available.
Item 4: Powell. Keep still. Too expensive to trade now. Wait and try to rebuild his value.
