Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

JB and Tatum both being supermax eligible gonna hammer the Celtics. Paying JB $50M a year staring in 24-25 means Williams gonna be let go... likely means another cut or trade of some salary by then. Going forward they will be paying like $110M for two guys... if they roll it forward. I think one is moved after they are both signed... at least at some point.
 
I'd feel rough giving Brown 50M+.

How do people feel about taking a gamble on Poole (I'm sure it's been discussed, but I'm lazy). I don't think they'd be willing to pay to get off him. I'm talking closer to straight into cap.

If the Celtics lose on the road today, maybe they would be more open to listening to offers for Brown.

They need to give something significant or its a not for me. I brought it up but there wasn't a ton of discussion on it.

I would feel wonderful paying Brown 50M... zero issue with that.
 
How do you get him?
Ko and #28? He is a FA at the end of the year. They can't extend him... he likely walks and they get nothing. They traded Melton last year so maybe they learned their lesson and won't move him... but guys only want to be the "best backup pg in the league" for so long. So if they don't think they are winning a title this year they may move him now to get some value.
 
Tyus Jones was straight dookie in teh PO this year. I like him, but I dont think I would give up assets for him.

6 game sample and he just wasn't shooting well... was fine the year before last. I ain't saying give up the farm for him but **** ain't free man. Conley was dookie in the Dallas series last year and was good this year... it happens.
 
The pg position depends on what we do in the draft. If we draft Black or Wallace or get lucky and get Scoot or Amen... roll with Dunn as a starter and don't allocate much else to it unless something comes dirt cheap (like Wiz just salary dump Monte Morris or something). If not then I think you need to hunt for a pg in FA and trade. Would be nice if it was at least a medium term solution. I go back and forth on FVV but I guess if 4/110M works for him then I'd go that route. Even a guy like Tyus Jones likely cost about $20M on his next deal.

Conley is Conley.

Tyus Jones is a backup PG. He's a really good backup PG, but I'm not really excited about making him a starting PG.

I'd rather just roll with THT/Dunn/Sexton and see if any of them emerge.
