(first update) Offseason to-do list:
(no order)
1. Let Mo, Foyeeee3, Al (s&t?), Watson, and Tinsley go.
2. Re-sign Carroll
3. Draft McCollum, Schroeder, and Giannis (leave the latter two in Europe for a year [maybe two years for Giannis]).
4. Sign Tony Allen
5. Try to keep Millsap. If that doesn't work, explore s&t options.
6. Remove Corbin. Hire Brad Stevens or SVG.
7. Sign Calderon to a one-year (2 max) deal, or see if the cash-strapped Lakers will let us absorb Nash's last year.

Maybe not but he's better than either backup and a lopsided trade like Sap + Earl should get us back a future pick, no?
If there's a way to do it with Al and not take on a crappy contract that would be cool too but I don't see it. Obviously the golden goose is Rondo but I already washed the sheets after that wet dream.

Again, I don't want someone that's better than either backup? What's the point? So we can 48 games instead of 45? This is the crux of my argument and you (to a lesser degree now seemingly) and NAOS seem to fail to grasp this. I want nothing to do with making our team marginally better for the short term. It's dumb and shouldn't even be considered. Sadly though, it seems to be our management's MO.
So exchanging expiring contracts to free up time for Favors and Kanter has no value to you. Gotcha. Not to mention, yes, upgrading/bandaging another position along with hopefully acquiring some kind of future asset.

I liked the Al for Rondo dream. Going back to sleep.

Playing well is priority #1 and nothing outside of that is really even close. If you're hoping someone else ****s up, then you don't deserve the break.
How would acquiring Bledsoe and Teague make us only marginally better? Cuz that's what I said.
Swapping Al and Calderon for 2/3rds a season would do more than make us marginally better.
These are the things I've called for. I fail to see how I apply to your distopian ******* bleeding.
