I do not understand the point in getting upset before we see what actually transpires, I get why everyone is on edge but let us see how it plays out…I think a lot of people want to see Joe fail, like it’s easier to expect the worse than work through the “rebuild” of the new regime.

Maybe everyone will be right, but we will have plenty of time to discuss when that happens…might as well try to think a positive option is available until it’s not.

I’ll choose to wait and see and hope for the best as a fan with some semblance of hope left, I actually think Joe has been very patient this offseason which is refreshing. He didn’t put a protection on the queen trade, but it didn’t hurt us in the end and he’s done some positive things on the administrative and coaching hire side.

I’m interested to see what the final plan for our roster is.

The length of a George/Bailey, Peterson/Bailey, Markennan, Kessler, and JJJ lineup is funny to think about but also terrifying…fun situation for those guys, they deserve to have some excitement with all the losing they’ve done the last few years.
I almost feel if we make no other big moves in the offseason we may need to keep Poole as salary filler/expiring for the season. I don’t see any circumstance he plays a pivotal role for us or is anything more than salary filler/expiring as value…but that value would be needed for midseason trade of Zion, Murphy, or herb potentially

Kessler is on the bench in that lineup, they are going to groom Ace by giving him as much runway as possible. They have enough size with Jaren and Markennen although neither are great rebounder's.
Honestly Zion should be a sixth man, I think this is his most valuable position playing 30ish mins a game and killing second units. If he’s playing really well you keep him in the game.

Fears
Murray
Murphy
Queen
Missi

Bey, Herb, Zion, peavy, Karlo off the bench

Depending on lineup maybe Bey starts and Missi comes off the bench.

That is a relatively deep team.
I think Fears is coming off the bench if no moves, at least to start the year. Herb and Murray are your starting guards.

This type of money spread out is almost nothing…no reason to bother anyone.

Walter didn’t have a real SEC stat line. Walter was healthy and fell because he was only raw athleticism playing subpar competition, this guy is a football player if healthy.

What’s Silvers story, he had a lot of hype preseason? Seems like a player.
Or do the hawks already control? I was curious if the hawks receive the pick before or after the lottery due to it being tied to the bucks pick, which ever is the better pick.

What an embarrassment to win the 1 pick and then have to hand it over to another team.

I’d almost love to see dumars have to sit in the shite he created at the draft lottery…smh
These are all hits if you consider where they were drafted and they are contributing members of the team. They may not be HRs but if they play and add depth that’s a hit after round 3.

I feel like peavy is going to be the sixth man, but I could see him switch spots with Reeves. I think Alexander might see minutes for us this year so I think they’ll want to see him get some run.
Starters?

Fears
Alexander
Reeves
Queen
Missi
I’m not surprised no Karlo, they know what they have there and I imagine they want queen and Dickinson to get a lot of run.

Hawkins though I feel like should be there, I was hoping to see him get some run and it would be good to see him be an outlet for fears on the outside.
If they didn’t have that pick then their plan for competitiveness would be different.

Bey should be a solid 3 and D guy for us and I would think our sixth man, I think he’s an underrated guy we got in that trade who could have a real nice impact.

Also will we resign Brown, he’s another defensive presence at guard who could help shore up some deficiencies.
Cie Grant? Stephone Anthony?

We’ve been really poor at evaluating lb’s.
