Didn't say that about the FRPs. I am sure there is some team out there who would be willing to take on KP for cap space without them. And leaving out what we could also obtain by trading other players skews the argument, so I'm not going there.

b) Everyone will be "overpaid" in free agency, because there is more demand for talent than supply available.
And yes, you need guys who score baskets. Everyone going on and one about THJ's defense ... Well Ben Simmons and Thybulle made 1st and 2nd team All Defensive NBA, and they're net liabilities deep in the playoffs because guys like Trae Young and Lou Williams can score bucket on them in the final 3 minutes and they can't return the favor.
You speak as if THJ can create his own shot. He's a jump shooter with minor drive-to-the-basket abilities. That isn't worth $20 mil per in any basketball league.
