re: Trae Young or Jarret Allen

I’d also prefer Murray, but at this point if we could get Trae for BI, I’d roll the dice and take the chance instead of running it ba k for the tenth time.A starting lineup of Trey, Herb, TM, Zion and a good defensive center might work. Maybe bring CJ off the bench as a 6th man. Something has to change.

Makes it difficult but I have to think if you trade BI for Trae, then CJ has to go too.

Our defense, in the regular season at least, was good enough to withstand CJ not being good on that side, but even as a 6th man, there would be overlap with Trae, and I'm not sure we can overcome that, even with a good anchor at the 5 holding it down.


But I agree overall, Trae may not be the first choice, but if he's the best choice, you make the deal because the day after you trade BI for Trae, you are a better team.
