To gather multiple second-round picks and use them for a late first and get a contract that we might be able to deal again next season or the off-season.
Also not against getting guys to groom our younger players. We really didn't have that in Kuzma and Poole is young himself.
Just need to get lucky in the draft. After watching Harper again last night, I think he can be special. Bailey may take longer and we know that Flagg has incredible upside. After that, it's a coin flip even though there are some good players available. But I think we're heading in the right direction.

These are funny takes...with a lot of truth to them. Give us a FRP for your deceased player and it's a deal. Smart--no pun intended--rebuilding strategy.

Think about it. Smart went to me in that trade and we ended up trading guys we had on the team for smart for that pick so we there for basically traded them for smart and a first .

Even more neatly. Zinger got us Tyus and Muscala and Gallinari. Shifted Smart to the Grizz. Later Moose and Gallo were traded for Bagley and 2nds. Bagley and 2nds were moved for Smart and the 2025 first.
One of the 2nds we got with Marvin was used in the sign and trade for Jonas. The other was packaged to land George. Jonas was traded for 2 more 2nds.
So Zinger got us Kyshawn. A 2025 first. Two 2nd rounders. Smart. Len. Colby Jones.
And I may have lost track of a 2nd rounder that was part of the Butler to Philly deal. If so then Zinger also got us a 2026 first.

Smart was defensive player of the year…which is a rare distinction for a guard.

Agreed about Harper. At this point, it’s a two sure thing draft (Flagg and Harper) with a handful of maybes (Ace, Edgecombe, etc), a handful of guys I wouldn’t touch like the Jarunicious (so?) from Illinois and a bunch of sleepers (like the other dude from Illinois)

Bro, you know damn well we're slipping to 5th.

I have a good sense who we take 1-4 but at 5 I’m beginning to sour on Jakucionis and think we just take giant Maluach
