Besides the we're better off conveying our 2024 pick to SAS part, there's also the optics and ego part.
Not necessarily. Depends how hard you lean into it.
If you REALLY want to tank, you could just be bad enough to get a top 6 pick this year and next.
I personally would rather just be bad and risk giving up the 7th pick this year (who cares, its a sunk cost), than do some weird in the middle thing where we don't even try to retain the pick and give them like the 13th or something.
If you trade Siakam, you gotta trade OG and Dennis to really make this team bad because there is to much talent to maintain a 30 win pace or whatever we are on.
To really maximize the youth and picks you need quantity, and rebuilding/tanking is essentially gambling. And if you wanna hit a # on the roulette table you have way better odds if you have enough capital to give yourself 10 spins than only 1.
