So what's the max extension Jrue can sign and for how many years?

Frank was a good consistent player, it's a shame we ran out of spots for him.

Donte is still our best asset to offer on the trade market.

Now he might be more valuable to us then other teams since we filled out the backcourt with vets who can shoot but not defend.

Or we pair Donte with DJ and maybe Pat for an upgrade when one comes available.

2 way - Jalen Adams/Mamadi

I'm confused by Patty's role as Craig and Forbes are better players, he may just continue as an energizer bunny. I moved Merrill to 3rd string PG as he can run the team if required but he's really a SG, he will need Donte or Craig playing next him.

We need another Defensive C if possible.

Rollercoaster DJ has a shot to win minutes by looking at that roster this moment.

Right now among big men on our bench, DJ Wilson is our best athlete and quickest to defend a pick and roll. He's a rollercoaster, so don't count on him, but don't count him out either.

Happy with our moves for the most part but sad that Mason had to go

Bogdan could have been our Ginobili. Who leads the second unit with sustained scoring? Not sure Agustin, Donte, or Forbes are that person.

And I don't think anyone would expect those players to be Bogdan. So I don't understand the point. We missed out on Bogdan. Need to move on. And maybe we made moves for a potential mid season trade.

Hopefully DJ loses out to the new guys because he's bound to just disappear when it matters. Where has he been the last year? His play went to sh--.

I was about to say, mason is probably still the best passer on this roster.

Would Bogdan of made this team better? Yes, but he's not here so move on.

Did we give up too much for Jrue? Yes, but most we definitely got better. Jrue >>>> Bledsoe, it's not even close.

Is our depth better? Yes.

Overall the offseason was fine, we improved and that's all we really could ask for. We saw 2 years of the same thing and it was obvious it wasn't going to work.

At the end of the day all the moves, regardless good or bad, over-paid or not doesn't matter IF Giannis sign the supermax. Gianns signing is all that matters.

Should've just drafted Huerter instead

Tucker understudy? At least that would be my path for him.

Hope Sterling plays well in Houston. Always been a believer that he could be a PJ Tucker/Marcus Smart lite in time

Still irked that we picked up Wilson’s option last year.

wallus · Post #1298 » by **wallus** » Sun Nov 22, 2020 8:42 pm

So I'm assuming we are going to get a bruiser for the last spot or are we done?

SupremeHustle · Post #1299 » by **SupremeHustle** » Sun Nov 22, 2020 8:44 pm

Just a thought: How can Merrill agree to a contract with the Bucks when New Orleans drafted him and the trade isn't official?
