We could deal Scottie and acquire both PatWil and RobWil like when we once brought in AWil and EWil for Vince.

1) lose the pick: trade Poeltl for a prospect and 2024 lottery pick. Use cap space to acquire distressed assets for draft capital.
2) keep the pick: trade Poeltl for a prospect and 2025 pick. Use cap space to acquire distressed contracts for draft capital.
Both scenarios see next season as a tank with Kelly O starting at C
One more season to develop young guys and implement system (read: tank) for elite talent and 2025-2026 is when they start trying to legit compete again

I don’t get it either. Guy is an RFA so you are going to over pay, and he really isn’t worth being overpaid.

So many in here, love to list all the times we “let players walk “ for nothing…
Gary is a top notch shooter, he has value in this league . There’s no way it’s a good idea to let an asset walk for nothing when u can resign him.. and if he isn’t fitting in the way we like, he becomes a tradeable asset down the line !

Is Gary after these many years a complete player at 18-22 mil? We should walk from one of Gary or Bruce but not paying Bruce his year two is a bad look. Brown's agent is Ty Sullivan who reps Donovan Mitchell. If we ever want to be players in the market I would not cheap on one year of Bruce Brown. We could be a landing place for Jordan Hawkins down the road. So I will take one year of Bruce at 23m vs. 3+ of Gary for 50-60. Any day of the week.

Is there any team that would actually trade a lotto pick (or even a FRP in general) for Poeltl that can also digest or match the salary? I’m not even sure that’s on the table at all- although I’d love it to be.
