Who else would you want?
My top preference would be Ball. He does not create shots for himself, but he is a high quality 3&D player with a high BB IQ who is a very good passer and can lead breaks (as well as bringing the ball up the floor in general). He is everything and more that we hoped to get from JRich, and I think he is a great compliment to Luka. He is also very young and has shown the ability to improve his game every year.
If there was any chance Charlotte would be interested in a KP for Hayward swap, that would be a really good fit with Luka.
Otherwise the order is probably Conley, Lowry then DeRozan. Dinwiddle is a poor mans DeRozan. He would make sense as a 6th man, but not somebody to start with Luka. I would probably prefer Reggie Jackson to him.
I think the goal for the FO is to get one of those 4 guys (Ball, Conley, Lowry or DeRozan). Collins probably fits in that group as well, in which case they would probably go the route of someone like Jackson along with him.
I believe that is the goal of this offseason. Get a "star" (Cuban) who can take some pressure off Luka. If they can't land one of the 5 guys above, or trade for a similar type player, I think they will have failed in their eyes and in the fans as well.
