Trade is a Must

I cannot see this roster - nor the future - achieving much as currently formatted.
I became a Pels fan after the Davis trade. I was excited about the potential of the draft picks. As I have written in this space before, I tend to overemphasise the future ability of young players and draft picks.
If that thesis is truth, then it is paramount we convert someone - anyone at this point - into long term assets such as draft picks and young players ... and start over.
If we do nothing, I just can't see a path forward for this team.
Totallly open to trading McCollum, FatAss, Brandon, even Trigger Trey, Javonte (delightfully surprised there is a market for him) ... can live with taking back short term salary as long as we get picks and young talent in return.
Doing Nothing is NOT an option.
Have a great day everybody !

The purgatory needs to end. The rebuilds gotta start

Until we move on from Zion, we will remain in purgatory.

Zion isn't getting traded until he demands out. Griff trading Zion would get himself fired, and any new GM would be hired based on their sales pitch for saving the Zion Era.

Well, this franchise won't make it past the second round until that time comes. Frankly, I'm not sure this team will ever make the playoffs again while Zion is around.

Great comments, all ! Thanks for sharing - I totally agree on each one.

Once we trade Zion and BI we can move forward. The crazy thing is we have pieces….just too many injuries and lack of coaching/front office leadership.
