That’s really interesting. Agree on the 28 vs. 27 pick. I could actually see a smart team preferring 28 as 27/28 is probably the first post-Luka year if he were to take his super-max, wait a little and then ask out.
In essence this is THJ for Rozier (which I see as reasonable for both teams on-court and financially). It provides the third ball-handler/creator. It is then Bertans/1st for McDaniels and expiring Oubre (I would just as soon move Oubre on in a separate deal for a 2nd).
It is bothersome that McDaniels is UFA. I think he grows up to be DFS some day. But, make no mistake, giving up that pick is probably more about money savings (Bertans for Oubre) than it is acquiring talent. I’d probably pass. If we add McGee and Plumlee and remove Oubre, I might be in.
