Here’s what i see as the assets we should limit ourselves to this summer
4 2nd round picks
THJ
Powell contract if needed for matching
Hardy
Cash
Tax MLE
Perfect would be trade for Bruce Brown and re-sign DJJ
Other options include flipping THJ for a TPE and bringing in a player with that. I don’t think we have trouble finding a team that will absorb him into cap space. And would probably tip us with a 2nd
Also could use some of these assets to trade up in the draft.
A lot will be determined how this team does in the playoffs. At the moment, I am going to be really careful trading the picks we have to trade. At this moment, I don't know we have enough for a 3/4 on a championship level team. I am not sure if Hardaway + something + picks is going to do it. We will see.
The names I am thinking about are DFS, Bruce Brown and Thybulle as good role players. I just don't think they are good enough for use to use the little draft equity we have left. At the same time, I am not sure an expiring Hardaway and 4 second round picks gets it done either. On a skill level, Hardaway may be better than all of these guys, but I think it is going to take assets with Hardaway. Maybe there is a chance in a weak draft that someone offers a late first for Hardaway. Probably not a great chance as he would be an expiring and other shooters are on the market. That could be a way to use a pick plus other stuff for one of those names above.
