This is actually a tough question.

This is almost essentially Curry/Draymond vs Miller/Giannis.

I think Draymond fits better with Curry than Pippen, because he's a better screener and a better passer despite Pippen being the better player.

I think Giannis-Reggie fit better.

I'd go Giannis-Reggie.

Am i nuts for thinking Miller is a better offensive weapon than Giannis? You put someone like this next to Giannis, I feel it's going to be almost impossible to limit him. Curry/Pippen is great too, but I think Giannis/Miller offer more balance and a little higher ceiling.

Reggie doesn't belong.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy
