a) What makes you can just call 1-800-DIFFERENCE-MAKER and order a couple of them out of a catalog just because you have the cap space for them? This sounds like 2021's version of Plan Power to me.
b) Everyone will be "overpaid" in free agency, because there is more demand for talent than supply available.
And yes, you need guys who score baskets. Everyone going on and one about THJ's defense ... Well Ben Simmons and Thybulle made 1st and 2nd team All Defensive NBA, and they're net liabilities deep in the playoffs because guys like Trae Young and Lou Williams can score bucket on them in the final 3 minutes and they can't return the favor.
