Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

I guess I don’t hate it, but it feels more like a lateral move. I’d rather have PJ than Eason. People don’t like PJ’s fit because he’s a “poor shooter” next to Flagg. Eason is even worse. Plays fewer games. Worse offensively. Both are plus defenders, but PJ is the better rebounder and rim protector. I guess Eason is a year or two younger? 

FVV doesn’t move the needle for me either. Just feels like doing something to do something…

A healthy Fred would be a significant boost to this roster, more so than any of the free agent 6th man that has been discussed.  I'm not sure Eason is a worse three point shooter than PJ.  He was better last season and was only 24.  That trade would make this team quite a bit better.
