Pass on Aldridge...if they’re willing to swap him for Tyler + Frank, then sure, but they’ll want more. I’m not moving Cam or Bridges or a 1st for him.

I was watching Aldridge against the Knicks thinking about him at PF for us. He'd be a very fit and is a proven vet who could add a steady presence in the frontcourt. But I don't love him at 34 and another year left on his deal. For some reason I thought he was 31 or 32. He was never a great rebounder to begin with and seems a bit heavy footed now. Kinda 50/50 on him.

Think Gallinari is the guy to target at PF. Expiring contract, great shooter, available. Not sure exactly what it would take to get him, but I prefer him to the other 4’s often mentioned. Love is too old and too expensive. Same with Aldridge. Gordon is interesting, but Gallo is better right now. Gordon does bring more athleticism and is young on a very nice contract. I think it would take a lot more to get him though.

Gallo's soft and injury prone. Would rather keep Dario in that case.

I think I’d try to keep Dario in a trade for Gallo anyways. I don’t think OKC does a Tyler/Saric trade without a pick coming to them. That makes the trade too steep IMO. My offer would be Tyler/Kaminsky/protected 1st

I don't think our PF position is very strong right now, but I wouldn't do most of these deals. I don't think I like Aaron Gordon due to his poor shooting. Aldridge is too old, slow, doesn't rebound enough, doesn't shoot 3s well enough, makes too much money. Gallinari maybe I'd be interested, but I wouldn't want to pay a high price. And I would worry about Gallo's ability to share the ball and fit into the offense rather than taking a lot of shots away from Booker and others.
I still like Kevin Love the best of the available options, but maybe the price is too high. Maybe the smartest move is to just rotate Saric/Kaminsky/Cam there and hope for improvement from Saric and Cam.

I think once we get our roster back and quit having to play Saric and Kaminsky at center they will be able to settle down to their roles better.
In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.
