His offense is actually worse than THJ as far as shooting/scoring goes and I am not really convinced he is a better defender. Graham is a lateral move at best and he will likely be more expensive than THJ. I am not a fan.
A first. What I think - if we do a move like Lowry, what is the point having an overpaid fourth big. If we go all in, we go all in. Maximize the roster. If we don't think Lowry is a guy that lifts us to contender status, then I wouldn't sign him.
Graham is a significantly better defender than THJ and fits the starting lineup better. The fit with Brunson is a concern. If he is more than THJ, I am not interested.
If we are going to burn a first to improve I would rather do it in a trade for a player than to dump Powell in a limited free agency.
