Pat should be our starting 4, but I'd like Theis back as a bench player.

Probably Theis. I think Markkanen is the better player, but he just doesn't click with the rest of our guys and Theis is the sort of player you can slot in any situation / line-up.

As for Pat Williams, I think he's better off defending opposition SFs and offensively I don't see much difference in whether he plays SF or PF, so just keep him at SF.

Siakam is available, and the Vuc package could actually have landed him. Do wonder how much they like Lauri (plus Coby?).... he would be an ideal starting 4.

I would not mind going after Bobby Portis . He is better than Theis and he brings toughness if Theis leaves.

Would you guys trade P-Will for Siakam? We'd probably include Aminu and some other filler (Lauri? A sign and traded Felicio???? Lol), but I think Toronto would do it.
I don't have a definitive opinion on it, but right now I think I wouldn't do it.

I was wondering what it would take to get Siakim. It's gonna be more than Pwill. Probably starts with something like Pwill and Thad. Maybe add in Coby or a 1st.

I do think he'd be a really good pf and third option to Lavine and Vuc. We'd just need to clear space to get Ball and a wing.

If you can land a nice upgrade at SF, it’s Williams. If not, I don’t know. I certainly prefer Theis by a mile over the others but doubt we can retain him without it being at the expense of more important long term moves.
