2020-2021 ROSTER TALK: Archived

[KillerLeft]

THJ, Kleber, and Terry to Atlanta (2 potential starters and Trae Jr.)
Collins, Snell, and Williams to Dallas (Collins and expirings)
Rondo to the Clippers (a much-needed PG)

Interesting to think about, at least. 

Luka/JRich/DFS/Collins/KP
Brunson/Green/____/Powell/WCS

Keep JRich and Collins, spend the MLE on the best available 3&D wing to back up DFS, and that's a pretty balanced young roster all around.

I would definitely do this, if you were able to switch THJ and Richardson. But, like I proclaimed yesterday, I think the team's recent choices have made it clear that there isn't really a way for them to play both Powell and WCS consistently, so I'd immediately start looking for a backup caliber big who could space the floor. A Kleber replacement, basically. I think that's what's missing from your lineup above. I think between DFS, Luka (with two other guards on the floor) and (year 2) Green, you've got the 3 covered.

To be clear, I left the blank because there's no way I give the MLE to Lou Williams. In this trade, I'd see him as filling in off the bench this year and moving on to another team over the summer.

Yeah, sorry - my mistake. Reading some of this too quickly.
