Why is it this stupid arse argument again?? I want to make moves that better our team NOW, and that will eventually get us to championship in 2-3 years. How is that winning now??? Do you know how teams are built?? You aren't just mediocre for 5 years and then wow championship I mean wtf bro. We also have a window with BI and Zion for the next few years. You want to waste 3 years of that for a chance at a useless #2 pick and take on Andrew Wiggins when we already have 7 first round picks the next 5 years?? fricking stupid.

calm down Dan.
You have this assumption that i don't want to win.
I expect this team to get better every year.
Jrue is a role player. BI and Zion are the catalyst to our success for the next 5 years.
You thinking that Zion should be competing for a championship next year is just ridiculous. Name me another guy in his 2nd year that led his team to a championship? Now remove the other hall of famers from Magic and Birds teams and see how good they would have been those years.
Durant didn't get to 50 wins until his third year. Oh yeah and they drafted Harden 3rd overall that year. Went from 23 wins to 50. Made the finals his 4th year.
Lebron won 42 in year 2. 50 wins year 3 and made the playoffs, finals appearance in year 4. Cleveland lost Lebron, b/c they were incapable of attracting FA's, and they had no draft capital. They had the #10 pick after Lebron, and it was a bust. They had zero picks the following year, picked at #25 the next year, and had zero picks the following year. That's the 4 drafts after Lebron for Cleveland. So they completed wasted opportunities to get better through the draft, and it's probably the #1 reason why Lebron went to the Heat. Maybe if they had the chance to draft Igoudala and Danny Grainger the two years after drafting Lebron, or a Carl Landry or Glen Davis in year 4 of Lebron, the NBA would have been much different, but they didn't give themselves that chance. They made a bunch of stupid win now moves that never really worked.
It doesn't matter what we do in the draft or FA or trades, we should be a 50 win team for the foreseeable future by 2022. I expect to win around 45 games next year, regardless of what we do this offseason. We could run it back and that would be my expectation. We could trade Jrue for Wiggins and that would be my expectation.
Call me stupid, but i don't think Wiggins being swapped out for Jrue is that big of a deal as far as our success goes. Wiggins is 25 years old. Oladipo made his big jump at 25, after he was traded.
