I think a full reshaping of the team hinges on that. I’m also going to assume JRich opts in, cause everyone wants to pay to get rid of him, which if that is the thinking around the league, he’s better off getting more money for the 1 year than signing for a long term contract (I believe he will most likely bet on himself that he can at least play up to that $11M amount).
That is not what I’d like to happen, but I think it is the most likely scenario. BTW, might be a better scenario that JRich opts in, plays well and is a TDL or midseason trade piece that gets a disgruntled star.
I think if little happens this offseason, we will be pretty active at the TDL. So I’m not fully worried if nothing happens right away. Would love it, not expecting it.
While I think there is a good chance they don't move KP (because they don't like the market) I will be really surprised if they don't make a big move. I'm almost sure they will try. I think the most likely outcome is that they Money whip DeRozan, as he is one of the few big targets that does not currently have a likely destination.
