The path to improvement will be some kind of Johnson Plus deal and bring back THJ and JRich (unless THJ is the Plus...which I doubt).

I agree, I’d they can find a quality piece in trade, as long as THJ and JRich aren’t dying to get out of here we can just pay whatever for them. At that point our team will be locked in with just exceptions left to spend for the foreseeable future so I don’t really care what they make.

I can’t see how Brunson is in the long term plans since he’s not going to be restricted and someone will probably offer him a combo of increased role and money, so I think you try and see what Johnson + Brunson can get you.

Hopefully that player can be player X in a Luka-THJ-JRich-X-KP lineup. 

Aaron Gordon would be great but don’t think it’s realistic if the reports are true about them turning down Portland.
