If anyone is interested in a potpourri of seconds, I'm looking for a semi serviceable big man off the bench.

GMs hitting me up for Zion just to make sure I’m not a mad man :lol: I promise y’all as crazy as all this movement looks it’s always strategic. 8 days until the deadline. One thing on my mind.

I am going to post this one more time right before the deadline on Friday. Mark Williams, 15th pick and Ousmane Dieng, 11th pick are on the block for a center upgrade.

I still think I could use a upgrade at center over M. Williams and Jordan. I don't have any draft capital to move because of Stepien. I will look at all offers; but not really looking for a star who will cost me 1/3 to 1/2 my quality depth.

Mark is putting up rock solid numbers in limited minutes. Roughly 7 points, 5 rebounds, and 1 block in less than 15 minutes. Once Charlotte does something with Plumlee, 30 minutes, 14 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 blocks looks reasonable.

Dieng is 19 and all project/upside. He has done nothing in the NBA so far. But its OKC that believes in him, so I think there is something to him.

I will only move them for a win now player. I believe wholeheartedly in Mark's future. Dieng, I am on the fence about.

Been getting a lot of offers for Caleb Martin. It is very unlikely I move him as we approach the deadline I like his fit next to Fox/Embiid and plan on keeping him on the roster for next year.

I was looking through my BaF notes and found my championship team from 2020. We can all accomplish great things if we’re committed to it. It’s not all about ratings. Find the right combination and put that work in. No matter how many trades it takes lol

2020 BaF Champions
PG- Russell Westbrook (36) | Lou Williams (12)
SG- Gary Harris (30) Lou Will (18)
SF- Jerami Grant (18) Bullock (16) Tucker (14)

I remember when Aldridge was a bad ass dog. Westbrook and Adams were the bombs in fantasy.

Except for the DeRozan trade, I have reworked my team this season through multiple baby steps. The two goals have always been the same. Improved Center play and a improved scoring option at SG and/or SF.

Reports out of Minnesota indicate the Franchise is excited about another young player being added to their young core of Ivey, Banchero, and Sengun, per source close to the organization.
