I miss talking basketball and I miss the pels. The regular season is almost certainly over and thus the pels are done for 2019-20. All we can do know is stick pins in your AD voodoo doll bobblehead and look to next year

Make three predictions for the organization for the coming year

1) this is the year they finally sign Justin holiday
2) Derrick favors signs a new 2 year deal
3) pels trade down from 12 or 13 for a future 2nd or 2 and take a euro stash late in the 1st.

This pretty much never happens, and we have a massive amount of 2nds over the next few years.

recall that the pels are staring down the barrel of a triple max...Ingram, holiday, zion. They do not need a 4 year guaranteed first round pick salary in this weak arse draft. additional seconds are what they can use, late firsts do nothing.

alternatively they may get a chance to trade out of the first round altogether

so you dont want any of them.

ok.

i will take bolsaro with #13.
hes going between 15 and 35.

i bet hes a star in two years. check out the video.

you can bring him in for jrue or lonzo.

dude has every offensive requirement.
takes it to the hole like you wish naw could.
stop and pop like lonzo dreams of.

dudes real.

If anything, the team will use their picks to move up in some form or fashion...no way they move back and gain more picks

normally yes I’d like that but there’s not much to move up for in this draft. Next two drafts will be target rich

Ingram gets a max deal.

1st rounder traded for Myles Turner.

Reggie JacksoN signs for half the MLE to backup Ball.

Frank Kaminsky signs for the other half.

Justin Holiday signs for vet min.

PG: Ball, Jackson, NAW
SG: Holiday, Hart, Redick
SF: Ingram, Holiday, Williams
PF: Zion, Melli, Kaminsky
C: Turner, Hayes, Kaminsky, Okafor

Championship

1) Uncle Al gets promoted and they hire Atkinson
2) lots of surprises.

By lots of surprises I mean similar to last offseason. Redick, Favors and Melli were all unexpected and opportunistic moves.

The least likely outcome is to run it all or most back. I don’t expect Jrue or a core piece to get traded but I can see S&Ts with the FAs and maybe even Miller. I wonder how Corona will impact contract pickup deadlines.

Guess in your scenario we do a draft and stash...also what about DiDi?

I don’t think Okafor is back next year

Not sure on Kenrich

Griff does due diligence and moves Gentry up into another role while Kenny is signed as HC.
Marc Gasol is signed for whatever he asks for if we have the room.
BI gets max extension.
Favors walks due to Gasol.
Jrue makes it clear he wants to retire in New Orleans.
JJ does Josh's podcast.

Not so sure about that, he had a pretty down season.

I think we would have to include some other piece for salary purposes, likely S&T Favors if theres interest there from both of them

Draft and stash with the 2nds is pretty much a givin..

Langdon loves his D&S guys, plus we really don't have the room on this roster for a draft pick right now.

As far as Didi, I could see him taking Okafor's spot and KW moving into a full time PF, but I also think its more likely Didi ends up getting signed for camp, then transferred to a 2 way deal to start the season.

We also may not even look at any backup PF/C in free agency, depending on how Griff views Cheatham
