people: Oh yeah Dwight Powell is definitely the starter. So psyched. It's too late to make trades. Only 3.5 months left until opening day.
I'm usually in lock step with @killerleft but this particular issue is seriously blowing my mind. The only way they dont upgrade center is if they dont want to include Hardy, Green, or the 27 1st and it's impossible to make a move without those assets.
I just think any one of those assets, let alone all of them, is too crucial to the building of this thing to give them up for a guy to fill a role earmarked for the guy you just drafted. I think part of it is that I’m higher on Lively than you are, but I’m also more than fine with taking the risk that this might be another rough season. All I care about now is that the team has a plan and is actually getting better.
