I would say some of us are just cautious and not celebrating before we actually see the on court product.I don’t see many super positive, but there are a lot of negative posts (not super negative) about the TDL. Also, I proposed a PJ and Hayward trade that included the 27.
What triggers me a bit is that in the discussions prior to TDL, "90 %" of the board would laugh at proposals to trade 2027 for PJ. Find thousand arguments why this is an overkill and how 2 SRP is max we should do. Now all of a sudden "90 %" of the board is super positive about it.
The possibility of player like Grant not working here is far lower than the possibility of player like PJ not working here. That is my main argument. Of course it is always possible it wouldn't be enough, but I would be far more comfortable doing it.
Turns out, my thoughts on using the pick instead of the young guys was the same thoughts as the FO had. We’ll see if it works out, but that day is not today.
