Wall, Beal, Porter, Sato, Mahimni, Morris and Oubre are under contract for next year with options for Meeks and Smith (we can only hope they opt out).
It is 2019-2020 where we are going to have a problem. $107M for 4 players - LOL!!!

First sub is Sato in for Wall at about the 5:00 minute mark
Sato-Beal-Porter-Morris-Gortat
Next sub is Mahinmi in for Gortat and Oubre in for Porter 3:00 minute mark
Sato-Beal-Oubre-Morris-Mahinmi
Next sub is Wall back in for Beal start of the 2nd/4th
Wall-Sato-Oubre-Morris-Mahinmi
Next sub is Porter back in for Morris 10:00 minute mark
Wall-Sato-Oubre-Porter-Mahinmi
Last subs are Beal and Gortat back in for Sato Mahinmi 7:00 minute mark
Close the half with Wall-Beal-Oubre-Porter-Gortat
In this scenario: Oubre plays 30 minutes and Satoransky plays 20. Similar to right now. Morris plays about 28. The basic idea is to stagger Wall and Beal and close halves playing small ball.

Not many teams have cap room in 2019.
Re-Signing KO and Sato won’t be too hard. The issue is how much does the luxury tax threshold goes and can we dump Mahinmi and draft a young big man.

Agreed. But, as you see, it's hard to get Sato more than 20 minutes when you do this. Maybe you get him back in with 3-4 minutes to go if a small-ball lineup is appropriate. Also, Oubre has to play 15 consecutive minutes each half. That's probably doable since there are more timeouts late in the 2nd and 4th quarter, but fatigue might become a factor.

yeah true, Otto did it in 2015, but either way, the basic idea is to play an 8 man rotation with Oubre Sato and Mahinmi and to play small ball as much as you can. Of course Brooks all signs point to brooks leaning towards abandoning Sato, playing the no PG lineup and sticking with two bigs at all times because Mike Scott makes a couple YOLO jumpshots.
Management is tipping its hand. That is the way they and Scott Brooks want to go.nate33 wrote:NatP4 wrote:nate33 wrote:Agreed.

I wouldn't be surprised if Sato doesn't even play much in the playoffs. Brooks will play Derrick Rose or Deron Williams or some other low-efficiency, horrible-D, shot-jacker found off of waivers.
As much as I would like them to draft a big guy, if someone like Zaire Smith or Daniel Gafford declares, take the best player available.NatP4 wrote:FAH1223 wrote:dckingsfan wrote:Wall, Beal, Porter, Sato, Mahimni, Morris and Oubre are under contract for next year with options for Meeks and Smith (we can only hope they opt out).

one thing is forsure, We will be able to draft a high up

McCoy/Robinson/Williams/Metu/Yurtseven/Wiley/Carter and plenty of intriguing small ball 4 wing options if one of the top bigs don't drop to us.

All you got to do is take one look at the guy. He's the real deal. Lottery Talent no doubt my mind.NatP4 wrote:Chocolate City Jordanaire wrote:As much as I would like them to draft a big guy, if someone like Zaire Smith or Daniel Gafford declares, take the best player available.NatP4 wrote:

yes to Daniel Gafford. He's flying way under the radar. Might be the best rim protector in college basketball

we are 100% going to have some high upside big options at our pick if we're in the 20-25 range. I would be happy to pick Yurtseven. Would be cautiously optimistic about someone like Mitchel Robinson. Would be thrilled with Miles Bridges dropping to us.
Ernie will probably pick the one bust out of all of them though.

Kelly Oubre was a pretty good pick. Jan Vesely not so good.

Now that we have the 1st and 2nd round pick AT LEAST UNTIL THE SEASON ENDS....
I think it would be a good time to bump the Wizards' draft thread.

Per 36, that's 15.5 points, 7.2 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 2.1 steals. He has a TS% of .715. His ORtg is 131. His DRtg is 106. The team is 6-2 over that stretch and Sato has an on/off rating of +9.2. He had a negative point differential in just one of those 8 games (the Philly game).
He has made 10 of his last 12 threes.

So my Manu Ginobili comparison wasn't that far off?

I think perhaps the level of international play has caught with and even surpassed regular NBA regular season play. Jan Vesely right now IMO is better than Ian and Jason Smith. He's far more athletic than Gortat.
Jan is exactly what this Wizards team needs at this time.
