And that’s how you start a new culture.

If we struggle to score at least we will make it a nightmare for the opposition

Plus that’s the kind of core you add a supermax player to and give him the best route to a chip.

Throw Lebron or Westbrook or kyrie or similar out there with those 3 and good luck

OT but, is there a suggestion box for realgm? this board is such trash and could be so much better. you'd think with such a dedicated and sizable community, they'd look to make this better to use.

Rumors = Ratings. This **** will never live up to the hype.

We will end up with Knox, be disappointed for a day, slowly build him up, then by mon he will be some hybrid version of LBJ/MJ. On to the next draft.
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

no, not next year

In 2020 or 2019 depending on how we get Bamba.

This coming year is pure developmental. And looking at the 2019 draft.
It can’t be otherwise with Kp out.

The next year, and I hate that it’s gonna take this long, is the cohesion season with frank, Kp, whoever we net tomorrow, etc and the addition of the new pick.

I see us where the 76ers are now at that point.

It’s that summer we swing for the fences with the cap

I don’t think we can make a deal with Atlanta without killing our future
A potential Memphis Deal works because we can take on Parsons deals.

I'd rather just take on more salary to get better picks, then wait until 2020 FA to splurge tbh

The 2019 plan isn't terrible, but 2020 just makes more sense with our theoretical "core" and our current cap situation

I feel most of the board will be on board with Knox at 9.

Take on Parsons at tech no-one and have max cap space in 2020. No Kyrie 2019.

Are these Memphis rumors exclusively because of the Bamba interview or have there actually been conversations between the two teams

Just make the deal with Memphis. We're guaranteed 2 of Ayton, Doncic, Bagley, JJJ or Bamba.
