Sounds like Pels would have tried to extract a hefty price had we struck out on PG13. At this point, what teams could even make that financial commitment?


Here's to hoping they figure things out... And Trey becomes unaffordable.

Achiuwa or Morris. We will still need a traditional 4 off the pine for certain match-ups.

For min contract targets I'd like to see Lowry, Covington, and Seth Curry back. Marcus Morris seems likely too and wouldn't be the worst. Another 3 and D wing like Highsmith is fine too. Wouldn't hate Beverley again but seems less likely. Definitely fine with Devonte Graham but seems like he should get more than a min. Bertans could be fine too.

Lowry and Cov are both washed IMO. Seth would be redundant IMO with Maxey, Gordon and McCain who are all undersized shooters. Highsmith would be my top choice of the names you mentioned but will he accept the vet minimum?

Covington was still high impact when he was on the floor - it basically comes down to whether he can play after ~9 months recovery. Morey's acquired him 3 separate times, plus he has a great track record with Embiid so I wouldn't be surprised to see him back

I think Lowry still has enough left to be worth a min. He's still a good shooter that will battle on defense and give you high effort, good decision making, and leadership. The impact stats I've seen don't indicate that he should be out of the league yet.

Seth Curry is possibly redundant if Gordon and McCain play well (which isn't a guarantee), but I just think he's good value on a min and has a history of playing well with Embiid. Wouldn't mind having him as another reserve option.

Lowry is probably still overqualified for a minimum

I'd rather have Terry Jones, Nurse is too infatuated with Lowry.

It's a shame Cov is probably washed. He didn't play much last season but when he played against the Celtics he played well he matched up nicely defensively with Tatum and frustrated him a bit.

Pelicans: We don't want to give this player a max contract... But we want a team to blow us away in a trade like they're trading for an elite player worthy of a max contract.

I loved Roco but he has been washed for a few years now. Reserve guards with some size for D would be nice. Morris or Precious are fine as deep bench bigs. Keeping Martin for a time helps with athleticism off the bench.

That would absolutely work if the Pelicans were a good organization.

Damn! Oh well. How about both of the Morris twins? We could use the toughness. Also covers the Daryl only signs players he's had before angle.

We will likely only sign 3 minimum deals, so I'm not sure why people are naming so many people. Covington and Seth Curry are washed. Lowry is probably, Marcus Morris is a maybe if he doesn't join his brother in Dallas.

People keep mentioning guys like Achiuwa or Highsmith as if there was a chance they would come here on a minimum deal. Dario just got $5M a yr, anyone worth something will get something. Or even if they did sign for a minimum deal they would just resign with their own teams. You think Miami wouldn't resign Highsmith for a minimum? You think NY isn't already maneuvering to re-sign Precious Achiuwa? These guys aren't coming here for a minimum deal.

I think there should be consideration given to starting Council and moving Oubre to 6th man role. There's too many cooks in the starting lineup and Oubre's usage is better served on non-Embiid lineups.

Council maybe doesn't give you the shooting but has some offensive utility as a cutter and connective passer.

Oubre, Maxey and Drummond is a good trio to keep afloat the non-Embiid 5 man units.

The data from when he plays indicates otherwise:

2-yr RAPM had him 167th in the league.

Ultimately he's still a good shooter and continues to generate a lot of steals and blocks and the units that he plays in perform well. He also just fits exactly what we need as a good 3 and D wing at the 4. He's definitely worth a min if he can get on the court. There's also just no risk on a min deal.

I was done with Lowry after game 2 of the Knicks series. I don't want him back.

Typically when you name targets, you don't expect to get all of them, so you form a list that is greater than the number of spots that you have available.

McClain pick looking better by the minute. I realize it is early, but Dalton Knecht looked pretty awful in his Summer league debut. He shot 3-12 with only 2 rebounds and was -15 in plus minus. He got lit up by someone named Adonis Arms for 32 points and 11 rebounds. Bronny was 2-9 and -15.
