I have been wondering if instead of getting a #3 we use our remaining assets for 2 level B type players. Like Dorian and maybe a 4/5 type player to have a deep and athletic team. Rather one that is more top heavy. A lot would determine is what the team thinks Green is and what OMAX will turn into. If they think OMAX is a starter in the next year, you may not need to use the remaining assets for an all-star level player and instead focus on length and depth.
I like the idea of DFS if he doesn't take a first to acquire. Brooklyn wants shooters. The ideal would be THJ and two seconds for DFS. Some other team could probably beat that, but if not, then I think it's clear the starting lineup would be Kai, Luka, Green, DFS, and Lively, with the first guys off the bench being Exum, Hardy, DJJ, Grant, and Holmes. That's a balanced team that is a clear POA defender away from being in contention - and who knows, maybe Green develops into that guy.
