This offseason disturbs me more and more as I look back. No future assets collected, no set starters. What an absolute waste.
We're not exactly very mobile now but I hope we go all in for some 3rd/4th guys if deals pop up. I hope we dont bog ourselves down with yet another cap chase in 2021. Teams have proven again and again the cap really isn't an issue if a good player wants to play for them.
We dont necessarily need another great scorer but we do need another perimeter guy who can get his points without Luka creating looks for them.
Also think the current roster is "wasting" a superstar that has arrived and dominating with extreme consistency, he has improved in every facet of the game since last season, FT, penetration, in the paint, asssiting, etc.. There is not another good starter on the team. There are two average or below average starters in Wright and Kleber, and even they would be bench players on other good teams, would start only on the worst teams in the league. The positive is a VERY deep bench of several players that are better bench players on the usual team. This and Luka has been the driving force so far. KP is also playing like a bench player at the moment, but it is all clear things will improve with time, nobody knows when. At the moment I would ride the best players as much as possible and get the most out of this (Luka, Wright, Kleber, Boban, JJ, KP).
