Sixth man works for him. Think less and do.things he does well and doesn't have be the best defender. I am slightly worried about the tank but we still play in the west. But Hardy has the pieces to challenge for wins.

If he got one or more additional all stars at the trade deadline. If that is Zion, Fox and Butler he would spend all his picks to do that. But that is not on the table but I could see Ainge do a big huge swing of spending capital to get a collection of talent.

Deferred the next year or whatever they agree to. I just want to improve the pick. It could be top 2, top 5 protected. Whatever makes sense. The kings may be reluctant but if they are open to that it could be a good move. Say in two years it conveys. That is a quality rookie we could...

John Collins + Cavs pick for Devin Carter + top 8 protected Kings pick + whatever. Would the Kings do it?

I like improving our picks which this does and it gives the Lakers a pick in '25 which they would value. Very nice.

5D chess.

Ok, I know this is going to be rightly criticized but you could make the 3 worth 2.5 points. It makes the scores messy but it does decintivizes the 3 point shot. You could push the 3 back a foot like everyone says and make the corner 3 worth 2.5.

The scouts find something they think works in their prediction models they tend to do group think in these things. I read somewhere having a father who played in the NBA is best indicator for success.

Where's Flip?

You could dance around the protections with the Lakers. Like move it from 4 to 3 or something for Sexton. For Kessler alone I would let them keep the number one spot and I would ask for the 2029 top 4 protected - that's a lot of value for us and it gives them something and they get a top 5...

This is why tanking breaks a fan. Root for the Lakers!?....ugh...wretch....

Flip has a good foundation to build upon. More strength and/or shooting will boost his value and ability to play with Kessler.

True, so true and it is over the top but he has started fast and that is sometimes an indicator. Realistically he is a Sabonis style number one option....however....there is a pathway and a small chance he could be something more. He might be a better number one than Lauri. Can they play...

I hate to say it, but Flip could evolve into a number one option like the Joker.

Key needs more passing support. Clarkson, Flip in the starting lineup please.

Two years ago, we should of spent picks to move up to get Bilal. But that was still a guess. The road to rebuild is painful and not always magical.

The deal probably has protections on the picks and we had to send Clarkson or JC.

Key needs to be in the g league. Otherwise his confidence could be permanently hampered.

My opinion only. Lauri needs to power through smaller players on the perimeter not out dance them. Just my opinion.

Clarkson with improved playmaking in the mold of a backup PG and getting his shot back would be sought after at the trade deadline.
