Roster Rebuild Game
Roster Rebuild Game
List your full ideal-but-realistic roster rebuild plans here. Then we can respectfully disagree at length, degrade into fighting about players and coaches from a decade ago, and eventually find out on May 25 that we are picking #4 so all our plans are moot.
You make 5 moves this summer:
#1 pick
#16 pick
#31 pick
One Free Agent
One Trade
List your final 15 man roster.

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
#1 pick - Ayton
#16 pick - Khyri Thomas
#31 pick - Shake Milton
Trade - Warren/Bender/Mil pick for Love
Sign - Tyreke Evans
PG - Tyreke Evans, Brandon Knight, Shake Milton, Tyler Ulis
SG - Devin Booker, Khyri Thomas, Shaq Harrison
SF - Josh Jackson, Danuel House, Davon Reed
PF - Kevin Love, Marquese Chriss, Jared Dudley
C - DeAndre Ayton, Alan Williams, Tyson Chandler
That's 16, so we'd have to cut someone, or put one on a 2-Way. Reed is probably the culprit. Unless we can find a taker for Dudley, Chandler, or knight

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
Stretching Knight and Chandler while renouncing to Len and Payton gives us about 30M in salary space, even factoring in #1 and #16 picks.
Just something to take in mind.

I can't see us stretching Knight. Mayyybe one of Chandler or Dudley if we can't move them.Ring_Wanted wrote:Stretching Knight and Chandler while renouncing to Len and Payton gives us about 30M in salary space, even factoring in #1 and #16 picks.

Well, obviously I am not going to just stretch people for the sake of it, but with those 30M you can do a lot of things.carey wrote:I can't see us stretching Knight. Mayyybe one of Chandler or Dudley if we can't move them.

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
Looooooool. That’s definitely how it’s going to unfold
Re: Roster Rebuild Game
Well, most of us are going to find out on May 15. Who’s planning to live in a cave for ten days?

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
I would draft Ayton, trade Jackson, Chriss #16, our unprotected first next year and Dudley for Leonard. I’d try and unload Knight using Milwaukee’s first round pick and then turn around and sign Kemba Walker and Parker. I’d try and trade TJ with #31 to move back into the teens and pick up Mikal BridgesO_Gardino wrote:List your full ideal-but-realistic roster rebuild plans here.

Walker/Harrison/Ulis
Booker/Reed/Bridges
Leonard/Bridges
Parker/Bender
Ayton/Bender/Sauce
I have no idea if we can have enough cap room to get Kemba, Leonard, and Parker. In this scenario, I am not signing Parker to the max because I don’t think he’ll get that. Maybe $12-15 mill per year.
Re: Roster Rebuild Game
Kemba isn't a FA until '19 if I recall correctly.

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
That's a lot to offer for Meyers Leonard.

Ah, balls. Thought he was UFA this year
I’d probably stick with Knight then for the year and save the draft pick.

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
Probably many of us AFTER May 15th. Maybe longer depending on the depression of getting the 4th pick.Cap wrote:Well, most of us are going to find out on May 15. Who’s planning to live in a cave for ten days?

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
So many ways to go, but if all things are possible...
Fantasy all trades, FA, and draft lands how I hope..
#1 Doncic
#16 Young
#31 Robinson
Trade for Love & Leonard in 3 team deal.
Sign Jordan
Doncic/Young/Harrison
Booker/Doncic/Jackson
Leonard/Jackson/Doncic
Love/Bender
Jordan/Big Sauce/Robinson
Fill in last 4 positions with tough vets who can shoot and play D.
I could do this more realistically later. I really an torn between Ayton & trading up for Young or go Doncic and take Robinson at 16 without trading up.

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
How did you get rid of Knight, Chandler, and Dudley?
What assets are you using to get Love and Leonard?

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
It was fantasy and both GMs thought they were going to get a Oladipo type trade, but I really think some next level hypnosis, jedi mind tricks and possible strokes occurred. Was able to trade away Chriss, Warren, Knight, Chandler and Dudley in that 3 team trade, haha.Split T wrote:How did you get rid of Knight, Chandler, and Dudley?

Re: Roster Rebuild Game
I don't even care how far fetched that series of moves is. I want to see a Young/Doncic/Booker/Jackson/Leonard lineup where we sub in Jordan for Young when we want to go big and Love for Jackson when we want to be smarter in the half court.

Honestly, I should have shot higher and got AD instead of Love.
