John Collins is only averaging 13 points and 6 rebounds in the postseason. However, he is shooting an impressive 54% from the field, 44% from 3, and 93% from the FT line. But he appears to be the 4th option for the Hawks. I don't see how Atlanta could justify and pay him $25 million per year. In Dallas, he would be the 2nd or most likely the 3rd option.
Could Dallas do a sign and trade where they send Maxi and J-Rich (assuming he opts in) to Atlanta for a sign and trade of Collins?
Could we then trade Brunson for a sign and trade of Ball? We would be under the cap to absorb his salary. Remember New Orleans already has 94 million committed in team salary
That should give us enough money to resign THJ.
Starters:
Luka
Lonzo
DFS
Collins
KP
Terry
THJ
Green
Bey
Powell
Our bench would be very young with the exception of THJ and Powell. But our starting lineup would be dynamite. We drafted these 3 rookies last year in the top 36. It's time for them to play. They've been in our system for a year. With summer and eventually training camp, my hope is they can be contributors next year.
