What's new

You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

I would let Rubio, Ekpe and Thabo walk. Draft a point guard with the 1st round pick. Give Bradley an opportunity to play with the varsity next year. Give the Stars players an opportunity to make the team like Willie Reed, Herpes, Reyes, Lyles and Cousins. Go sign a couple of seasoned vets that won't break the bank. I know this won't be popular but live and die with Exum.
 
Rubio RS stats:
12,7 pts, 6.7 ast, 0.311 3P%, 1.3 stl, 2.6 tov
Rubio Playoffs stats:
16 pts, 7.5 ast, 0.333 3P%, 3 stl, 2tov.

A player who is better in playoffs always on my team.
Take Ingles stats
Rubio in regular season attempted 10.7 shots per game.
Rubio in the playoffs this year has attempted 14.0 shots per game.
Could have something to do with the rockets wanting Rubio to get open looks, shoot the ball, and have high usage cause they know that Rubio scoring more is likely to equal jazz losses.
The opponent typically wants Rubio to shoot and wants Joe not to shoot.
The rockets have executed that strategy perfectly and have bliwn the jazz out while Rubio's numbers have increased.

Offensive win shares Rubio is dead last amongst our starters.
Defensive win shares Rubio is dead last amongst our starters.
VORP Rubio is dead last amongst our starters.

None of this is surprising btw

Win shares are dependent on games played a lot. Rubio played by the least games (68). Mitchell by the way is #4 in ws among starters. Is he #4 in terms of importance on the team for you?. No ? So shut up about those win shares.

Please, Joe has played like a scared bitjch. I'm really disappointed in his approach.

Maybe Rubio should play more games then. (Just kidding, I like winning games)
Shut up

My off season plan as GM would be to...
1) Tell Mitchell he is moving to PG, so he can spend the summer appropriately (Even if I acquire a starting PG, Mitchell will still be my backup PG).

2) Acquire players I think could be fringe all-stars next year. Specifically, I would (In order of preference):
+ A) Trade for Holiday or Conley
+ B) Sign Harris to max (3+1 player option with a no trade clause)
+ C) Trade for Gallinari
+ D) Trade for Gordon Hayward (yes, I went there)
+ E) Offer Butler 3 year max

3) If none of the above are possible, I would next try to overpay for players who I think could be starters on a championship team and compliment Mitchell:
+ A) Trade for Gary Harris
+ B) Offer near max to Brogdon (overpay because RFA status)

4) Trade for players with high upside who I think are available and can grow into fringe all-stars:
+ A) Lonzo Ball
+ B) Winslow

5) Sign offensive players with whatever space I have left (Bogdanovic, Mirotic, Jabari, Randle, Austin Rivers).
 
Are worried that PJ Tucker is too strong for Joe?

I think Joe or Royce would make a great PF.

I think Joe and Royce could play some 4 and probably should (and should have already) I was simply saying that quin doesn't play them there. Ever. iirc
