emphatically said NAW and Kira will start playing a lot more together.


That tells me he wants to see how those 2 do together so he can know if he can move on from Ball this Summer and feel safe about it.

maybe but ball is still a talent that is not good when walks out door for nothing. maybe ball is signed and traded and we acquire other different type of asset back. Bledsoe needs to go. I don't mind Adams here... probably a great influence on Hayes and we need two capable bigs.

We definitely have the guys on our roster that could fill out a solid starting unit.

Kira
NAW
BI
Zion
Hayes


If all of them reach their potential then that could be a championship team. Now the odds of that happening are close to zero, but it’s nice to know that for each starting spot we have a guy that might be able to fill it already here.

My personal opinion: they would love to keep Lonzo at the right but they recognize they cant just blindly promise to match whatever offer.

Lonzo is well liked, is young, is still getting better, and offers many positives. Even if NAW and Kira take off, they are affordable contracts. We will need depth for a championship run. Let all tyese guys grow together.

By the time Adams is done, Hayes should be worthy of starting (if not before). We should be sitting on a top 5 roster with youth to boot. This assumes steady progression and we do SOMETHING of worth with our war chest, whether it be trade for an all star or draft another all star in the making.

I am not sold on SVG. I dont blindly trust Griff. I do stand confident that we will be a top 4 team in the West by May of 2023. It is realistic for us to be the clear front runner at that time.

That’s exactly what I got from it. It’s smart because Bledsoe shouldn’t be here next year or at very lease playing big minutes. Also, it’s good to figure out which backcourt you want to start next year.
