Roster Building From Here - FA and Summer of 2023

I think something to remember is, at this point, we're ahead of where we need to be with the rebuild. We've talent in lot of positions with an all-star level player in Lauri and decent scoring and young potential in some positions (Kessler is something), a warchest of assets, relatively clean checkbook, and good coaching and good player development. It's important to capitalize on your strengths, so build through the draft, watch for buyouts or trades for buy-low/high potential young players to continue building the roster. If/when a superstar becomes available that makes sense (no Kyries please), you can strike and you have the infrastructure in place to capitalize and support them. If you find one like we did with Don, all the better. So while losing Conley hurts somewhat, but that Lakers pick has a ton of potential value post-Lebron and no one said we're keeping it.

Basically, keep on keeping on.

I’m confused.. what’s the difference between this bread and Cy’s thread?

I figured that one was the next move after the Westbrook trade… this one is more long term summer type stuff.

Im not sold on him yet either tbh despite being the jazzfanz leader in clamoring for him to play more.
My favorite thing about him is his size and athleticism. I also think he can do more with the ball if hardy will allow him too. I have seen some very promising flashes

He has had some awesome catch and finishes off of rebounds or passes that have caught me by surprise. If I was Hardy I would really make an effort to get him out of the corner a bit more and doing stuff. He needs to avoid the nights where he plays 10-15 minutes and is invisible.

I have seen a few times where he set up teammates nicely too. Maybe there is some playmaking in there somewhere.

Id try for Jerami Grant

Grant would be a great pickup. Outside of that, I’d use it on non-guaranteed or expiring deals to offer a team a salary dump to get out of tax trouble. Punt until the next one and try to find a max guy to add before salaries start getting big again.

More than anyone else

Portland may lose some shine in the middle of this GP2 stuff. I'm sure we wouldn't first on Grant's list but maybe there is a window opening a little?
