They're grooming Monk to be the next primary scorer. It's not hard to figure out.

Is not hard to figure out that Rozier and Monk are not complementary players, though. But we will see on the court.

I like that MJ wants to hunt for the playoffs.
Well now I really want us to deal Batum for Wiggins. Hell, if we’re taking on Rozier we might as well add Wiggins, who is a better gamble than most we could make. He is still a young player who showed a couple of years ago some major talent. It would certainly make for a team to watch;
Rozier - Graham
Wiggins - Bacon
Miles - ?
PJ - Marv
TBD (Cody or FA)
In order to avoid a clogged toilet you have to run Monk out there in permutations that include Miles Bridges and PJ Washington. Bacon can back up Miles at SF. Monk would be 6th man on a team starving for offense. For sure he's first off the bench with Wiggins here. And starter if not. Monk and Bacon have an open competition for starting SG I assume. But if MJ wants to win now and brings Wiggins, the competition will be for 6th man. I for one believe we need better spacing with Kemba gone. Monk has more spacing potential than anyone on the team and they just added a starting PG really not known for the 3. It's good that he plays strong defense so you can hide Monk better. Monk won't be attached to any bad contracts, totally unnecessary in a Wiggins deal.

Had all these deals happened in real time they likely wouldn't have asked for anything additional as they were looking to clear space for Horford. With the latter signing in Philly, they can come back and squeeze us since the deal won't be official for a week.

1) signed-and-traded
2) at an amount that's a 20%+ raise
3) that takes his original team over the cap,...
has his outgoing value cut in half. All of these apply to Kemba, but only 1 and 2 apply to Rozier.
So Kemba's $32.7M contract effectively counts as a $16.35M deal, which can be matched to Rozier's $17.9M.
