Our window is now, and everyone is aging, so all the chips are in for this year.The pessimistic side of me thinks this will be an outlier year because it is a contract year.
And I don’t even care.

Conley has always been good. The outlier was the first few months of last seasonThe pessimistic side of me thinks this will be an outlier year because it is a contract year.
You mean all of last seasonConley has always been good. The outlier was the first few months of last season
If we win a championship this year then I won't care. But if we resign him for a lot of money after a 2nd round exit, that would be stupid.Our window is now, and everyone is aging, so all the chips are in for this year.

Nah. Look at his splits from last season. Since late January he began playing well (16ppg on 44% shooting, 40 from 3, 5apg), right into the bubble and playoffs. Most of last season? Sure. "All" it's not true.You mean all of last season
I note that gobert is in all the good lineups and missing from all not so good ones as well.Lineups (>30min) with Conley :
Conley-Clarkson-Oni-Niang-Gobert : +45.5
Conley-Mitchell-Ingles-O'Neale-Gobert: +21.5
Conley-Clarkson-Ingles-Niang-Gobert: +20.5
Conley-Mitchell-O'Neale-Bogdanovic-Gobert: +20.0
Lineups (>30min) sans Conley :
Mitchell-Clarkson-O'Neale-Bogdanovic-Favors: +8.9
Mitchell-Clarkson-Ingles-O'Neale-Favors: -11.3
Mitchell-Ingles-O'Neale-Bogdanovic-Favors: -14.6
Ryan Smith is a young billionaire who owns his hometown team. I sure af believe he bought this team because he wants to bring a championship to his favorite team growing up.Resigning Conley OR signing and trading him for a trade exception make lots of sense to me whether we want to keep him or not. Thats because the team is now in the luxury tax. If we lose him, then we must build from within. If we even grab a S&T then we can flip it into assets as the Warriors did with Russell.
Of course this assumes that Ryan Smith doesn't mind the tax.
