We're not getting State Farm.

We're not getting Kawhi.

Assuming we resign DRose, Thibs wants a veteran starting PG who he - and Randle - will trust. That way he has someone else to set up the offense.

I posted a tweet from some sauce speculating that we'd be in line for Lowry, Dinwiddie, or someone else.

I could see the off-season going something like this:

1) Lowry 3-year deal
2) Re-signing Rose, Taj, Bullock (letting Burks, Frank, and Noel go)
3) Drafting Butler @ 19, Cooper @ 21, Vrenz @ 32
4) Signing a couple more 1-year journeymen vets

Lowry / Rose
RJ / Butler / Cooper
Bullock
Randle / Obi / Vrenz
Robinson / Taj

50-win team. Top 3 defense again. 5th or 6th seed. Maybe advance to the 2nd round this time. #BabySteps

Trades (picks and perhaps Mitch/Obi/Knox): the main targets will be Rozier, Grant, Brogdom, Myles Turner and perhaps Sexton. I dont believe Lillard, Lavine, Beal, and SGA will be on the market.

FA PG: Targets: Spencer, Lowry, CP3, Lonzo, Reggie Jackson, Nunn, Graham

FA Wing: Targets: Hart, Oubre, DeRozan, Batum,

Dump: Knox (without giving assets, which can be tough)

Re-sign: Rose, Bullock

Team:
PG FA/Rose/Luca
RJ/IQ/Rookie Wing
FA Wing/Bullock/Rookie Wing
Randle/Obi/Knox
Mitch/Taj/Rookie Center
BAF Brooklyn - Pre-Season NBA 2K Simulation 2023 Champions.

Brunson/Nembhard/Micic
IQ/Strus/Ben Sheppard
Butler/Nesmith/Watford
Batum/Boucher/Morris/

I'm really not a fan of Myles Turner and just feel he's super overrated.

He's a great shot blocker but he's only averaging a career 12.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game. Those are not good numbers for a supposed star Center.

And in regards to his Player Efficiency Rating, Offensive Win Share and Defensive Win Share they are exactly identical to his Rookie season in comparison to his 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th years in other words he has failed to improve even just a little bit despite 6 years later. He averaged 14.5 points and 7.3 rebounds as a 2nd year player but yet only 12.6 points and 6.5 rebounds as a 6th year player last year. His game has zero ability to improve he's already maxed out.

I much rather take my chances with Mitchell Robinson. And save our draft picks, players and cap space all at the same time. Mitchell Robinson is already a better rebounder than him and just as great of a shot blocker as him and he's also younger than him too.

I don't see them keeping both picks. A move up for a scorer/wing. They are also going to need another center presence. Taj is more of a role model/rotating presence/practice in the PF/C role.

Lowry (other than CP3) seems to be the target. Toronto seems geared towards Suggs.

Well do far all the trade ideas I've seen were based off of rumors we've been linked to. It's been rumored the Knicks could go after Sexton and Turner. Both players are under contract so in this case a trade is fitting to the situation

It's been posted, I think it came from a tweet, it's technically a rumor and I'd like to discuss it. Does that qualify?

Knicks have worked out a few guys. Vrenz/Derek Culver/Troy Baxter Jr/Tyson Etienne

Rumored to have interest in Sexton/SGA/Rozier/Oubre/CP3

We are not to far off from CATEGORY F5 threads!! In a couple of weeks tops...this place will be jumping with irrational hot takes...over rating and under rating players...insane/unrealistic trade ideas etc. Can't wait!!
