Right now?
I’d honestly not go crazy right now. Not a whole lot you can do this moment unless you want to get taken advantage of.
- I’d put in a mandate to focus on a comprehensive approach to the season, not simply trying to win, which would mean playing and developing guys like Naw and Kira but not throwing games.
- I’d explore trades for Lonzo, targeting the best deal I can find for the deadline.
- I’d explore trades for Bledsoe. He’s not on our timeline and isn’t an ideal fit with Zion/Ingram
- I’d explore trades for Redick. He’s also not on our timeline and is unlikely to stay past this season so getting any sort of value would be wise.
- I’d try and establish a line of communication about Beal and see what they want.
- I’d review Langdon and see who was ultimately responsible for Melli/Hayes and our scouting decisions. Consider firing him.
- I’d start a search for a new associate head coach that can come in and focus on offensive strategy and development to compliment SVG’s defensive approach. It feels like SVG has staffed rather hastily and nepotistically and would do well with an injection of one or more guys with some fresh ideas and perspectives he could incorporate.
- My preferred archetype in the draft would be a 3/4 Reddish/Nesmith/Hunter type player that projects to be a floor spreader and defensive stopper, unless we end up finding a workable deal for Beal.
- I would look to lower cost veterans to fill out our open role player spots and to fill the needed void of vet leadership but not in a way that is cannibalizing the development of young players.

If Langdon brought in Melli and Hayes. Those two alone are fireable offenses

This. Good teams wait for the right moment to make their move, bad teams panic and are forced to make moves. The Pels are not in a win now situation, they are in a situation where they need to trade away the players that don't fit for future assets or other players that hopefully fit better.
