You hope that you get two top 4 picks in this amazing draft to rebuild around:

Missi
Trey
Hawk
Herb
DJM
BI


CJ is too old to build around anymore and Zion is too Zion to build around anymore.

You make an interesting point. I really do think our team was physically unprepared for the season. The fact that guys got very little work in the preseason certainly didn't help ramp them up.

Yes. The Zion era is over. It is time to rebuild.

We are in a better position to rebuild this go round with some young pieces in place like Herb, Trey Murray, Missi, maybe Hawkins, and a solid core player in Murray, plus Milwaukee’s draft capital to come.

Move off of Ingram before the deadline for whatever, do whatever you can to void Zion’s contract, and go forward in the draft.

If you can get Ingram to resign for a decent deal fine, but the rest of this year should be targeted toward getting a top draft pick and getting rid of Zion.

I honestly don’t think these guys were prepared for the regular season. Now that’s partly on them as players but I also think the staff needs to be aware of this as well. Zion obviously wasn’t ready. Trey pulled his hammy in camp. Hawkins got back issues. CJ basically pulled a part of his groin muscle.
