I'm prefacing this by reiterating my love and confidence in Franz, but I'd have his bag packed and him on a direct flight to Cleveland if Garland somehow found his way onto the trade market.

He's exactly the piece this team needs and would significantly raise this core's ceiling, in my opinion.

hartenstein was on my list when he was a free agent.... and will be again. i'm still on the grayson allen train as well.

Allen/Suggs/Wagner/Banchero/Hartenstein.... would be a big and formidable offensive and defensive team.

Franz is part of the core Garland would be elevating, this makes no sense to me.

LOL no.

You trade for Garland to elevate Paolo and Franz. Franz for Garland wouldn't change the ceiling much IMO.

I hate the fact that Franz can’t shoot right now but I couldn’t trade him for Garland.

Really good insider video on monk Free agency

https://youtu.be/Zl_iKVg2wfo?si=eGn0MHZJat3IDaoH

Bottom line

Sac can't offer him more than 17.4 M per year

Monk really doesn't like to be a bench player but he d do anything to help the team

Will likely leave sac if a team offer him more than 18M and the starting spot

Weltpark wont do it tho, i dont believe. They want better defence. I would consider Monk in a heartbeat but i dont think the FO would evaluate him as starter material and he makes little sense off the bench.

Yeah, Monk is not a multi positional Defender, this is why I think they ll go after a guy like kcp or even a Allen

While i dont believe the DLo rumour, because the FO are a hermetically sealed vacuum of silence, i could believe the FO liking him. Hes a much more Weltman type player than Monk.

We could've outbid the Lakers last season, I think. We signed Ingles for $11m, and I believe we still have $7m in cap space. DLo signed for $17m.

I can see Ayo Dosunmu putting on a show tonight. He's quietly getting a lot better and hiding in the shadow of White, Caruso, DDR, Vuc etc.

No. The new CBA is brutal to a top-heavy payroll.

Let’s be honest we aren’t snagging a big free agent.

Paolo
Franz
Suggs

And JI

That’s where our money is going.
