It's the same problem as always. You can't play all these non-shooters together. The only way it works is a stretch big. Sure, try to find a Daniel Gafford as a rotation big that only plays 20 mpg. It ain't easy. Certainly aren't any free agents out there this summer that fit that bill last I checked. Oh wait, there is. His name is Kevon Looney.

Steven Adams

Would he want to play with Draymond or is there still a bit of sour nuts grapes?

i don't think big kiwi gives a **** tbh

Steven Adams missed an entire season and played 14 mpg this season but sure. Let's blow our MLE on him as a reaction to this series. Not recency bias at all lol.

They probably don't have enough to sign Adams, for that matter.

Yes. I’d sign Okogie.

More shooting please!

If Bron wants to play with Curry, he can come for cheap. This is probably his last chance.

You may hate LeBron, but he might best the signing with little money available. He can play less than 30 minutes a game with this team to safe his body, unlike having to play 40 minutes in LA.

So, does LeBron abandon his son in LA or do they come to the Dubs as a package deal?

Bronny for JK? That will stop all the JK talk forever! :lol:

they basically need 2 starters and 1 reliable sixth man. and that's before looking at the rest of the roster. good luck with that.
they are basically done as a contender. every team that made the postseason in the west, apart the top 2 players, has a better roster. even DEN after losing braun and KPC in the last 2 offseasons has better third, fourth options/role players than the dubs.
they botched 3 lottery picks in 2 consecutive draft. you might not draft 3 stars, but with the #2, #7 and #15 picks you should have drafted at least 2 decent starters/1 starter and 1 sixth men. or used them to add some quality veterans. they didn't. their inability to capitalize on those picks and lacob's two timelines nonsense has resulted in a profoundly flawed roster. and now they are in deep shite.

we need some reliable offense , in 2022 Poole was avg 17 pts and wiggins 16.5 pts in playoffs as 3rd and 4th option.

from Poole / Wiggins to Podz / Moody is a massive downgrade.

Id say a starting center like deandre ayton (if he wasn't making $34 mil/yr) and a.long, athletic 3 and d wing and let's roll.

Supposedly the Heat have some interest in JK. How about a JK for Wiggs S&T? If the Warriors had Wiggs instead of JK this series, it's probably a sweep.

They can have hield too

nice.

the adams talk is ridiculous. he dominated us, sure. By that logic, let's go get alex len. At least he's younger and will come on the min. It also took us two games of not taking it seriously to eventually figure out their 2 big lineup. If we had a JK that could take a layup and a podz that would be willing to take one, it wouldn't have taken this long.

Kerr needs a big that can defend some, rebound, and stretch the floor.

I think Brook Lopez fits the bill for what he might be asking for salary.

I forgot about brook, good call. He might be a very cheap signing considering how this year/playoffs went for him. Unfortunately, I would be willing to be he'll find his way to the lakers for a pittance.

Brook Lopez doesn't stretch the floor. Teams just let him shoot for the most part. Better that Post learns how to play defense.

Rather just get a big that can play spot minutes as a defensive anchor and can finish on the inside. Really need to lower Dray's minutes since he's a full time center now.

37% from 3 the last 4 seasons. He'd be our 3rd best shooter from deep, immediately. 5 attempts per game is not nothing, either. I have more faith in him next season than I do post and I really like QP.

I think your idea of Brook is the more common one and why I hope he'll be available for the TPMLE

If you read through Bucks forums they all say teams don't guard Brook. Teams just live with him shooting 3s. Part of the reason why the Dame, Giannis pick and roll wasn't better. Teams would just sell out to stop that action and leave Brook to shoot 3s. Post is a better shooter than Brook easily. Teams are running out to run Post off the line, while teams just let Brook shoot. Brook is obviously stronger and more experienced so he knows what spot to be in on defense. Brook should be better than Post next year, but I'm not really considering him a stretch, he's a player that can shoot, but you don't mind short closing to him or letting him shoot. Whereas Post you don't want him to shoot.
