Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
If we draft a PG then I would like to add a shooting wing like Hezonga

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
I don't know whether they'll command more money or not, but my lieblings are in order: Thad Young (probably more money. Maybe a long contract is the only option), VanFleet (still more and I cannot imagine Raps wouldnt match), Teodosic, Wilson Chandler. I know, Chandler had a bad season, but overall, in a mentor-sub role he could be still effective. Teodosic's def is bad, he is slow but in every other aspect i like him a lot.

I'm assuming you were a Napier fan when he was in college? He's an average back up PG at best (though I might say he's below avg) and doesn't really fit well with our squad

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
I'd go for Lebron with the full MLE. If you can win a chip with the Hornets you're the GOAT, simple as that. If you want the crown come and get it.

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
we have to upgrade this roster via trades. Need to do some 2-for-1 or 3-for-1 trades where we combine rotation players for a single better one. We have too many average players, and should probably be willing to pay the price to get Kemba a true sidekick, rather than surrounding him with pieces that have no business being more than a 4th option.
After that, use the MLE at any position of need

All for it but if I trade a sidekick for 2 role players I want pick 11 with it.

DeRozan? Tobias Harris? Fournier? Love? Wiggins?

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
Honestly I want to see what happens in the draft & trade wise before I start thinking about free agents. It might be interesting if the NBA did free agency before the draft though.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

DeRozan yes, Harris probably not, Fournier no way, Wiggins I would consider if we got to offload Batum and got back 20/Jones

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
Considering how much Tobias Harris smoked us last year, I kind of like him on this team. We really need better shooting. None of our starters can shoot besides Kemba and I guess Marvin.

MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
Post draft I don't think we need it:
Kemba / D. Graham / Monk
Batum / Monk / ???
Miles Bridges / MKG / Lamb
Marvin / Bridges / Frank
Zeller / WH / Mozzy
Marvin, MKG or Lamb probably won't be on the opening night roster, we seemingly can't move Batum and his big contract. It will be interesting to see what Master Mitch's next move is because we have too many players and not enough minutes.

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
I doubt Kupchak goes with a rookie backup PG. PG2 remains the most vulnerable position so I have to assume the Hornets use the MLE to address it.

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
If the team adds a backup PG with that money as expected, they have to consider Monk and Lamb need development and cut ties with a player they don't want to develop. That player is MKG. Remove him and it cleans up the rotation, opening minutes for Monk and Lamb despite the addition of PG2 (MLE) and PG3 (Graham). It also opens minutes for Miles despite being stuck with Batum.

Re: MLE in full effect post Dwight trade
MKG holdouts won't be able to wrap their heads around it but...
Kemba - MLE
Lamb - Monk
Batum - Miles
Kaminsky - Marvin
Zeller - Hernangomez
Kemba - MLE
Lamb - Monk
Batum - Miles
