we are going to have a vastly improved team, but in no way are we close to having a complete roster to compete for a title

we'll likely sign a stop-gap at the 3 and 5 and pick up some min salary guys for the bench

next year we'll have the ability to use some exceptions, get another draft pick or 2, and possibly sign more vets to min deals. then we'll have another year

this isn't exactly "tanking" but having major holes isn't a big deal. the past 13 months have completely re-shaped our roster. we have 3 star-potential young players and one of the most complimentary bench/role players in teh NBA

we just need a role player at the 3/5 anyway. defensive/rebounding guys to comliment our 4 offensive options. those are plentiful and cheap, we just may not get them THIS offseason


Agree. And still, this is a HUGE step in one offseason, imo. I'm pleased. It also further demonstrates to me that ownership is giving Demps what he needs to build a team.

totally agree. i'm not trying to state the opposite

i'll put it somewhat in perspective. the heat, in the offseason with the Decision, had basically teh biggest immediate building step in NBA history. they still needed 1 more offseason to complete the roster to win a title

we obviously didn't do THAT well, but i mean shheeeeyit
