Next season should be the season we ready to make a big jump so who is on this team that is keepers moving forward

Cade
Ivey
Bey
Duran
Boggy
Stewart
Livers

I’m guessing they are locks

Maybe Burks, we need to see him playing. His skillset is perfect to play either with Cade or Ivey.

CoJo, Hayes and Knox need to go.

Diallo is not a bad player, just not a good fit with Cade or Ivey, and our team need to be built around them.

I'm ready to almost entirely reboot again. Weaver is pretty damn efficient in moving guys, so in answer to the question;

Ivey
Duren

Just get a ton of picks, and hope you land Victor this year, or Scoot to put next to Ivey.

No such thing as keepers.

Duren gets moved if you get Vic
Cade/Ivey get thrown into the fire if Scoot/Amen get picked. I wish someone could shoot from this bunch but they can't.

Vic is going to end up as a PF in the league. He and Duren would be disgusting defensively.

No way in hell would I move Duren.

Oh man people here already willing to trade away Cade for another shot at Vic and to propel the tank? That's freaking crazy.

If Orlando calls and offers Suggs + their 2023 unprotected 1st for Cade you're saying yes????

Cade, Ivey, Duren

If they are willing to be backups (but expendable)
Bey, Stewart, Livers

Bojan (and probably Burks) are worth more to us in a trade

In order of how much I want them on my team still in 2 years.

1. Cade
2. Duren
3. Ivey
4. Stew
5. Bey
6. Livers

That's a really solid core of 6 but could obviously really use another player with our 2023 lottery pick to add to the mix. I, like many here, have been a bit disappointed with some of what we've seen from Cade but young players always have ups and downs... Even after we had won a championship we had inconsistent up and down efforts from guys in their late 20s or early 30s. The grind of a long 82 game season makes it impossible for most guys to give it their all every night.

Cade, Duren, and Ivey all have all-star level potential either when you look at their talent or their athletic gifts/abilities.

No way in hell I’m trading Cade

I don’t have any visions of Bagley becoming an all-star and I know there’s a lot of negativity surrounding the amount he was paid but at 23, considering the way he looked the last 18 games he played with the Pistons last year, I think he can be a great asset to the team.

Cade
Ivey
Duren
Bey
Stewart
Livers
Bojan
Bagley

Keepers:
Cade
Ivey
Duren

Keep but seek improvements:
Bagley
Stewart
Bey
Livers
Hayes

Nice to keep around:
Burks
Bogs

What?
Knox

Call me crazy, but I’d let the season play out before deciding who the keepers were.

Nuts!

As of 11/11 I'll move anyone on our roster for the right price. For guys like Cade and Ivey the price will be very high though.

That's how it should be like SVG said every player has a price.

And how did that work out for him?

His best value will be at the 5.

Yoir probably correct, but, as Cleveland has shown, you can run bigs next to each other with great success. Duren is Allen in this scenario

Cade
Ivey
Bey
Victor
Duren

That's a beastly front line, and I dare any team to consistently go inside.

Perchance to dream I say.

Right, I think Wembayana could play PF, similar to how Porzingas does if the Pistons somehow had that problem. The real dilemna is what if they get #2 and are facing the decision to take another PG in Scoot Henderson, 4 Lotto's in a row with a primary ball handler and no one else at this time is close to him in talent.
