How would save this team as “the DL replacement”?

Fire DL that clown of a GM, keep Mitchell, Gobert, Clarkson Favors. Blow up the rest of the team. Keep the rookies and 2nd year players.
 
I noticed Omari Spellman hit the waiver wire yesterday. First round pick in 2018 and still just 23 years old. Sign him DL.
 
JF urges DL to sign Scrub X, who is drifting out there. As per JF, Scrub X is the solution to our problems.

DL signs Scrub X.

Scrub X is a scrub; thus doesn't play.

JF urges DL to sign Scrub Y, who is drifting out there. As per JF, Scrub Y is the solution to our problems.


This happens every year. This year is was Shaq Harrison; now it's Omari. Every now and again a team will hit on somebody who turns into a solid rotation player in this process - somebody like Ingles or Christian Wood or whoever. But the vast majority of the time these people are drifting out there because they are scrubs. Folks acting like it's patently obvious that DL is an idiot for not signing players they have scouted FAR more than any of us have are overreacting a bit.

What has DL did so great that wasn't lucky? Give away all our franchise 2nd round players til Jesus returns?
 
Here are the questions I have...

- could Royce, Joe, Favors and Morgan cover the PF position?

- if so, would we trade Bojan?

- what could we get?

- do we need Conley AND Clarkson as much as we need perimeter depth?

- does Conley even plan on returning?

- would we trade either?

- shouldn't we trade Conley instead of losing him for nothing since we have so few assets?

- what could we get for Conley or Clarkson?

We ain't getting **** for Bojan. I'd compare him to the 2018 Joe Johnson at this point, except bojan is on a much worse contract. 20mil for a guy who's basically a liability on the floor when he can't make shots. No thanks.

Except Wood is currently balling in Houston. And signing Shaq is the right move to make considering how we are currently getting absolutely torched from the perimeter. It's truly pathetic to see fans calling for a scrub to make a difference when in reality that FO should have done something about our perimeter defense a long time ago. Not sure what point you are trying to make here because JF are absolutely spot on when it comes to those two issues.
 
The goal needs to be to find a better top 3 player. Right now, in some order, our top 2 are Rudy and Don. Who is number 3? Conley, Bojan, even Ingles? No idea.

To go any farther, the number 3 needs to be a lot better. I'm starting to wonder if looking at a package centered around Bojan might be the way.
Only way to do this is through the draft. No trade because there is no asset. No FA signing because there is no cap space. Tank this season, get the third star, and we will still be able to compete for the next 3-4 years with the kid being on his rookie contract.
 
They have kind of made our bed now they need to sleep in it. It’s not all bad as some seat will heat up if some **** doesn’t change. Specifically Quin, DL and JZ.

Personnaly I would have fired these assholes after blowing that 3-1 lead last year. **** I am still pissed about that....

Mike is the guy I can see being moved. He just doesn’t work, we need that defenseive guy next to Mitchell.

For the last week or two I have been thinking about trading Mitchell and Connelly for Harden. I know it’s blasphemy but it may be our best option to win a chip at this point. Call me crazy but if Harden is at all willing to play here for a couple of years I think I would probably do it I want a chip so damn bad....
