TBH, and I'm sure everyone here will hate this, but I'm pretty enamored with the idea of Mike Conley here in a 20-25 minute role off the bench. I think losing Brunson will have a significant and negative impact on the future talent level of the team, but changing him out for Conley might actually accelerate growth in some of the areas the team is struggling with, short term. It would be a little like changing Devin Harris out for J Kidd back in the day.
The problem is (in addition to Ainge) that making the money work would be tough without including Hardaway, and I think that deal would open a new hole in a different part of the roster (unless they really like Greenikina).
