    Yeah. I think it’s Lavin and either Caruso or Drummond. Prefer Caruso. I do think we should push for a pick with that contract.

    Don't trade Reaves for anybody but a clear cut top tier player (that's fits).

    I don't think any trade is worth it. I'd rather just give this roster the season since we'll be more flexible in the off-season. As much a people want to trade Dlo, he's more valuable to us than he will be to any other team. They just view him as a contract, but to us, he's our 2nd best playmaker and one of our better, if not best outside shooter.

    I think Ham just needs to get a better rotation and the guys will buy in better. We ain't winning a chip but were are much more formidable then we have shown.

    I’m fine with us being patient as well, it’s not happening this season with Ham, and there’s no available coach that could come in this late and fix it either. I’d rather save our picks to trade together during the draft if we go that route. But this team has quit on Ham, so no I don’t think any rotation he uses will fix it, they’ve absolutely tuned him out, the defense right now and the strategy of just let guys shoot is laughable and it’s burning us. There’s no quick fix coming, Gabe is out weeks, DLo who knows. I am for a smaller trade involving no first round picks if a competent backup PG can be had though, just to bring some stability in that area.

    Patient with a healthy Lebron and AD? Meh..if the losing continues, somebody is getting traded, if it still continues, somebody is getting fired.

    I can’t imagine us not making a move.

    our summer moves looked good but have gone belly up. Everyone expected the team to be better and that’s making the current situation worse.

    We get closer to a trade with every loss IMO.

    the irony for me is that part of this swoon is almost certainly because guys heard lebron was trading them. i was talking about self-fulfilling prophecies somewhere, but we started burning up phone lines, and guys quit. that's my theory.

    We'll make a move, but I'm not giving up much draft capital. If we want to make a splash, wait for the summer.

    Windler has an interesting skillset. Reminds me of a Chandler Parsons. Looks NBA ready tbh.

    At least he could rebound. We need a lot of help with that.
