Ellis has all of those attributes that you mentioned, but obviously without the strength part. But, you are talking about a very specific thing. I...
I would prioritize Ellis though. Lowest hanging fruit. Perfect complement to Luka and AR. We already have proof of concept, in a player like...
Smart's play has really highlighted the importance of the defensive stopper (with shooting) role with this team. Smart is averaging 11.9 points,...
No, I'm very pumped up right now about the current team. I don't mind running it back, if these are going to be the versions of the players. But,...
FWIW, you could do a lot worse at power forward. Eason averages a career 15.8ppg, 9.6rpg, 2.1spg, 1.0bpg, 1.6/4.5 3-pt FG pg (35.4%) per 36...
If Lebron has truly bought in, and we got on a respectable playoff run, why not bring him back? This version of Lebron is better than the current...
Houston's cap situation looks clean in 26-27, but it gets messy the following season (if they want to keep FVV for 25 m +), even with opting out...
I get it. We have recency bias about Eason right now. Heck, I'm ready to sign up Lebron for another season, pay Smart up to full MLE money, Ayton...
I realize that. Offer sheets and renouncing RFA's are unrealistic. Lakers would still have to include the 2026 1st or something, but not a King's...
I want to believe that Lebron has bought in to playing off the ball (finally) and we win the chip, and he comes back for 20-25 million. That would...
Perfect outcome for us. We needed him to play like garbage, in order to minimize leverage for Houston. Still could be an option though. He's...
Lakers get: Anunoby + Hart Knicks get: Giannis + Vanderbilt Bucks get: LaRavia + McBride + Kolek+ Dadiot + #23 (Lakers) + #26 (Knicks) + 2031...
Yup. Also it would be interesting to see what Lebron does if we actually win the chip. I don't mind bringing him back for up to 25 million or so....
Yeah, definitely could be an option. Knicks only have the 2026 and 2033 1st to trade, and don't really have any good young players. Lakers:...
We still don't know if Watson's shooting is real yet, either. He could regresss like Eason. But its a gamble we woukd have to take. Not a large...
I'm hoping Smart just opts in too. If we had to chose one for the room exception, it would have to be Smart. His skillset is just more rare.
Yeah, it's really refreshing how Smart has essentially returned back to his old form, after dealing with injuries. He is probably going to opt out...
This series against Houston might show how important it is to have a Large size 4. KD and jabari Smith are tall. Need to try our best to get...
Yeah I know what you mean. He's been playing well since coming back so people have been jumping on the band wagon.This scenario we take a flyer on...
Resign Smart and Kennard, draft a Lob Threat / Rim-Protector, trade for Dort, sign Thybulle, Clarkson, draft 3 and D athletic shooter would be a...
