re: Offseason Moves

It's a bit too early to know who wants to make changes. Some of that will depend on how this round of playoffs goes. But for fun, I'd rank my offseason targets in this order:

1. DeJounte Murray Hawks--would package pick(s) and player(s) to get him on Pels. Long PG who shoots threes at good rate and decent % + can handle the ball in crunch time and was a good defender in SA. Problem is Hawks may hold out for Herb in the deal;

2. Jarrett Allen Cavs--I'd offer Ingram in a deal for Allen. We should also get a pick back in the deal. If ended offseason with Murray + Allen I'd be very happy;

3. Darius Garland Cavs. Secondary target, but I like his game and think he'd match well with Zion. He's small and has been injured, but he can pass and score at a high level and can run an offense. He'd be a big upgrade, but if you paired him with CJ, that's all gas, no D...;

4.Onyeka Okongwu Hawks Another secondary target but if you could expand a deal with the Hawks to get Murray and Okongwu that would be a nice package that addresses some critical needs for Pels;

5. Tyler Herro Heat. If Pat Riley is as pissed off as he seems, the player out of Miami I'd want isn't Jimmy Butler, it's Herro. CJ actually put up better shooting numbers than Tyler and is a Heat kind of guy, so CJ + a pick for Herro and possibly Jokic might be doable...;

Wild Card: The suggestion of using Zion as bait is out there, but if you could do a deal with Rockets for say Sengun & Green, Pels become a wild team with CJ/Green/Herb/BI/Sengun + Trey/Hawk/Dyson off the bench. Far fetched but fun idea. Hey, Griff did say they'd explore all options...
