I think we draft in the 3-5 range and i want a big,mpj is actually my preference if his bag checks out, main reason i wanted top 3 wasn't so much about the player but the flexibility of being able to move back, so if u get 3 and mpj or bamba are who u want and will go 5 or 6, if sac or chi wanna get up there and u can still get your guy, flip picks to dump wes or for future assets. But I'll do my off season based on a simple pick
Draft mpj or bagley
2nd round josh okogie and jevon carter
Let all the free agents walk except seth if we can get him reason 3/12-15
Try to dump wes if a team like philly doesnt want to reassign reddick long term we can flip wes for bayless
Stay as far away from randle as possible and semi far from gordon
Throw max at dmc, if he doesnt accept then pursue favors 14m per and kcp 11 per and call it an offseason, maybe a 40 win team with another lotto pick next season and 27m more off the books with wes, barea, and dirk expiring as well as hopefully barnes walking or if he stays, getting him down to 16-18 where he belongs
Roster would be
Dsj/barea/carter
Kcp/wes(or Bayless)okogie
Barnes/dfs
Porter or bagley/Powell/maxi
Favors/dirk/powell/maxi
We'd have a good mix of vets and youth with another 30m in room next summer, 12m roughly if we are stuck resigning barnes long term
I would do that. Both parts, move from 3 to 5 and the trade. I don’t know about Favors or Cousins. I don’t want any part of Cousins and Favors does play some Center but he’s really a PF. If cap space is what they want and Randle, Gordon, Capela, and Nurkic are off the table I would just save the cap space and resign Salah for 2 more seasons at a really low salary. They would go into next off season with a lot more than 30 mil. And by going 3 to 5 you could get a top 5 protected pick from Sac or Chi.
