It's time to blow it all up. Trade Lowry for a first if you can. See if you can get a first for strus and Gabe heck even two seconds for each. And lastly trade Jimmy for 4 firsts and try to do right by him by sending him to a good team. Tank and go for wemby or scoot. And come back with wemby or scoot, Herro,Jovic, Bam and have a plethora of picks to either trade or round out the roster and do a proper rebuild. We need to do a proper rebuild. This team is not doing anything even when we have everyone available. The ship has sailed.

We wouldn't do it, but it's the Boston reset when they shipped off KG and Pierce. Worked out for them...

An SGA/Fox/Ingram/Brown/etc.
Would have to be a 3 team trade in the SGA/Fox scenario as you want to give Jimmy the chance to win somewhere

Whos the best young player we can legit get for Jimmy right now?
he's better then those 3 names, but are the Kings/Pelicans/Celtics doing that trade?

Jimmy makes no sense to those teams. Jimmy makes the most sense to a team near contending or contending. It's not like Jimmy gives it his all during the regular season so that destroys his value, sure in the playoffs hes great but if the team is not good enough to get into the playoffs like us currently constructed what's the point when hes paid near 50 mil a year?

Celtics and Pelicans aren’t contending or near contending with the addition of the best player in the playoffs last year and a top 10 player in the world?
But also that’s why I mentioned having to do a 3 team trade to get Jimmy somewhere to contend in the SGA/Fox scenarios

It's very hard to make a trade that would make sense in a 3 way since the pieces contenders have dont help rebuilding teams when they trade away their star players. Then remember Fox is with Klutch so thats a no no. Honestly tanking makes more sense and is more realistic in this instance unfortunately.

Draft picks help them, Fox is just one of many scenarios.
