Yeah if that is the plan then everything should go lol. 2 years is a stretch with Lauri and Collin. I could see Lauri being okay with it as he gets the shine as the max guy and has a young family that likes it here but I think you have to remove Collin and maybe Walker to accomplish a 3 year tank with Lauri.
This is exactly why I was saying when are we planning on doing the inevitable Laurie Markannen trade this summer? I saw and read the same locked on jazz podcast everyone’s talking about and it makes sense. He talked about how Boston took four years for Jaylen and Tatum to become what they are , and if you take the next three years for our draft picks to hopefully get two out of three and add four years to the middle of that you’re looking at 2031 for competition. Lowry will be aged out as will almost anyone age 25 or older. We need to trade these guys now and get younger prospects or draft picks that we can use to fill in the voids after picking our next young guys in the next three picks over the next three years.
Ainge and the Jazz have known this all along. Markannen was intended to be worth more on a five-year contract then on an expiring.
