Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Agreed, and I'll raise you: 

I can wrap my head around a significant portion of minutes being allocated to Flagg at the 3 and either Johnson or Washington at the 4 - WITH LIVELY AT THE 5. 

I think that approach has ZERO chance of any kind of success with Gafford at the 5. ZERO. 

I think the vision is pretty clear here. Versatility and size...those are the goals. Think about how Michigan played last year, and in your mind substitute Lively for Mara and Flagg for Lendenborg. Plenty of time with all three on the court, but also plenty of time with Mara sitting and Johnson/Lenedenborg at the 5/4.

That is how I am seeing it as well.  Doesn't seem like a lot of minutes for PJ in that scenario.  You don't want to play him at the 2.  You would be better off with a wing who can guard 1-3 and shoot (and create).
