It can get very tanky very quickly but a rotation that features Conley, Beasley, Lauri, Sexton, and Clarkson will likely be too good offensively to be a bottom 3 squad.THT 30 mpg

It’s really a simple comparison… compare our roster to SA, OKC, Houston, Indiana and Charlotte (these guys will suck). How many guys do they have that can help you win games? How many do they have that they will play a ton of minutes that are dev projects that will actively work against them winning?do you know how bad that team is defensively ??
the kid seems to really have his head on straight... Scoot too. Memphis culture is driven by Ja... GS Steph/Dray... Offloading JC, Mike, KO, Beasley, Vando... really won't end up killing us in a year or two.
It is bad defensively but it will still be good offensively and we have a bunch of veteran players in our rotation.do you know how bad that team is defensively ??
Despite Danny fleecing teams this offseason, most teams don't really just trade away draft capital to do it. The Lakers were limited with the picks they could trade and I'd guess a lot of teams were hesitant to meet our demands after our other trades earlier in the offseason.(the THT deal was a money saving deal too)
That happens in the regular season and this coach won't have the lockeroom either. No way Sexton and Markannen are down with tanking at this point in their careers so both will try to play good basketball. Only chance of being worst team is both of them never playing and handing the keys to THT or JC if he isn't shipped to a contender at the trade deadlineMmm, yeah. Dominating the ball, driving into the teeth of the defense, launching off-balance, mid-range jumpers, making a good play once out of 3 or 4 attempts. We're close.
Offload enough stuff around them that they have to be amazing for us to win. Lauri isn’t mr. Durable and Sexton can be load managed because of his knee injury last year. Hold him out of back to backs.That happens in the regular season and this coach won't have the lockeroom either.

Outside of last season (Sexton was hurt) Sexton/Lauri's teams have been amongst the worst in the league despite their production.That happens in the regular season and this coach won't have the lockeroom either.

The ultimate tank commander starting 5:Im pretty concerned. Jazz are too good imo. Trade conley for garbage, sit clarkson and KO with fake injuries and play rudy gay 35 minutes per night and i will feel better.

The Jazz weren't the team that picked Kessler.
Not true, you need Udoka in there for Kessler.The ultimate tank commander starting 5:
PG - Butler
SG - THT
SF - Bolmaro
PF - Johnson
C - Kessler
Exactly, that's my point of view too, We have legit chance to be 1-3 pick although. we still need a lot of luck to land VictorOutside of last season (Sexton was hurt) Sexton/Lauri's teams have been amongst the worst in the league despite their production.
I think the other teams that will fully be looking to embrace the tank are the Spurs, Thunder, Pacers, and Rockets.
The Spurs are pretty devoid of any real star level talent but they have some interesting young pieces and Pop raises their floor. The Thunder lost Chet for the year but they should still win some games with SGA/Giddey and the rest of their young guys. The Rockets might be too good to tank if Jalen Green takes the next step this year. And Indiana as it stands will be in a similar boat to us as long as they're holding onto Turner/Buddy.
