We have not even seen this group with what everyone feels will be the best player, and most important piece moving forward. Let’s see how Zion fits in and who he plays well with before we start trading everyone away. Cool?

I mean long-term unless Zion is such a transcendent talent that we are contenders in the next two seasons, getting a return for guys like Jrue/Redick is going to need to be considered.

Jrue will be 31, Redick is 35 and will be 37 at the end of his contract. Both have the best positive value on the roster that are outside our long-term time schedule. I might eat my words of letting them go to contenders at the deadline because Zion and health does somehow turn us into a playoff team, and that experience is valuable, but it's still something we need to be preparing for(and open to) if we want to make the Zion era successful.
