So Who Is The Next Big Star That Leon & Co Are Gonna Target?

I hope it aint Zach Lavine because if thats who we are targeting after missing on Spida. FIRE THE FRONT OFFICE ASAP


But there has to be a bigger fish that we are eying, right?

Team is an RJ or Randle reshuffling trade away from being a perfect team for Towns.

I'm pro getting Lavine at the right price. Basically Obi, salary filler and 2-3 picks would be the ideal price. Team desperately needs an efficient 3 level scorer that can carry them at the end of games. Lavine can do that a pretty decent level.

Also obviously Jaylen Brown has a chance to be a UFA in 2 offseasons. Getting him for free would be an ideal situation.

Basically any star who isn't a lead guard would be an ideal pickup for us to keep this thing going in.the right direction this offseason

People are gonna hate me for this, but I think AD should be on the list. He gets hurt a ton, but when he's on, he's one of the few guys I would want to pair with some of the stars we're going for.

KAT. He’s has so much potential that still isn’t realized IMO

My guess is KAT. If Harden leaves Philly, then I can see us going after Embid.

Can’t even put into words how much I don’t want KAT. He super talented and his 3PT shooting has been remarkable but he views himself as a Prime version PG-13. I don’t believe he’s a winner, never liked that he was a red carpet in the paint, he’s lazy closing out and I don’t see the right attitude/body language.

24-25: $50 Million
25-26: $54 Million
26-27: $58 Million
27-28: $62 Million

To put things into perspective, I could talk myself into LaVine over this guy 7 days a week - and I don’t even want to have that internal conversation.

Feel like it's KAT.

Especially after their FO did "Super Isiah Thomas" moves
