2020-2021 ROSTER TALK: Archived

[DanSchwartzgan]

Our options will be much more limited next year, so the always try next summer does not play as well (and what we have said the last two years).  I'm not talking about a wild panic overpay, and I'm not talking about a move just to do a move.  We have a glaring need for secondary playmaking and starter level talent.  JRich has shown he can not provide either.  Dinwiddie is not a perfect fit, but he can be a secondary play maker/scorer, is decent off ball shooter, decent defender and can run the second unit while playing with Brunson (if he is still here).  If we land somebody like Conley, then there is no point in doing that move, but if our big move is somebody like Collins, and our option is S&T JRich for 3/45 or stand pat with JRich (or Oubre or Gordon) then I probably pull the trigger on Din.

What if your MLE signing is Caruso or McConnell in the secondary playmaker/defender role, you retain THJ operating over the cap and do the JRich S&T for someone who can defend the wing and power wings?  

I think we are missing someone in the 3/4 rotation in addition to Maxi/DFS.  I’ve mentioned the difference Crowder would have made.  Who is closest to providing that and also available in a JRich trade other than Oubre?
