use Josh Hart and Mitch, and whatever picks we have left to upgrade the roster. that's at least 32.4M being sent out (+ use Kolek, Dadiet, Huk, Deuce, and can send out up to 43.7M not including potential S&T of our current cap holds)
I'd like to keep the core of Jalen, KAT, OG, and Mikal in tact one more season. it well pretty well considering how late the KAT trade occurred in the offseason, not much time to mesh
Hart, for his salary, just isn't enough of a net positive in playoff basketball where half court offense is even more important. would be tough to get rid of another Brunson ally (mitigated maybe if we can find a way to get Donte back, who'd be perfect at the 2), but they're in the endgame now, it's all about winning a ring, personal relationships be damned
Ideal fit players that make $32.4 million or less :
- Immanuel Quickly 32.5
- Khris Middleton $31.6
- Jrue Holiday $30
- Jerami Grant $29.7
- Jordan Poole $29.6
- RJ BARRET $25.7
- Jaren Jackson $25.2
- Jonathan Isaac $25
- DeMar DeRozen $23.4
I have no clue how we can make it work salary wise without destroying our depth, nor do I know if I want the long term contract, but Jrue Holiday would be awesome next to Brunson. He’s a true secondary ball handler with enough playmaking skills to incorporate some Brunson off ball into the offense, while also being a great on ball backcourt defender and shooter.
i love the idea of holiday. especially what he has been. looked kinda cooked this season. wouldn't want his money on my books for the next 3 seasons.
