    As we slowly head for our second year in our rebuild. I'd like to play a game.

    Sell or Sign.

    Rules are simple: Do we keep the player or do we sell the player? (Sell = trade/cut/waive/not resign)
    It's not about what to get back, or how much cap room we save. Just simply, Sign em up or sell them off.

    Here our the contestants! Obviously it's not the vets. Or the Cannon fodder.
    What makes this game fun is, perhaps our best player is our best trade chip?

    1. Porter Jr
    2. Jalen Green
    3. Wood
    4. Tate
    5. Sengun
    6. Martin
    7.Christopher
    8. Garuba Can

    For me its.

    1. Porter Jr - SELL
    2. Jalen Green - SELL
    3. Wood - SELL
    4. Tate - SIGN
    5. Sengun - SIGN
    6. Martin - SELL
    7.Christopher - SELL
    8. Garuba Can - SELL

    As you can see, I'm at 6-2 sell to sign.

    Where is everyone else at?

    Someone has to be willing to buy what your selling

    That’s the problem

    I think we're doing a lot better in our rebuild than a lot of the people here give us credit for tbh. We have lots of good young pieces. I'm not even entirely convinced on moving KPJ tbh, I'd just rather not play him at the point. Green's showing plenty of star potential, Christopher looks to be a solid NBA player, Sengun could be great, Tate is a solid glue guy, Martin could easily break out to be a solid starter. Garuba's actually the only one of this year's rookies I'd part with.

    sign everyone, unless those needed to be cut/sold to get under luxury tax.

    we keep tanking for top 3 pick for as many years as needed. eventually we'll land the next lerbon... then maybe the next generation of rox fans can finally enjoy a contending team.

    Kevin Porter Jr.
    Trevelin Queen

    Most of these are “fine” players and should have ok careers but there is no star and I would sell any and all of them for one.

    I’ll never understand how some ppl are so much higher on Sengun over Green, especially once You take in consideration of their ceiling.. he’s never goin to be on Jokic or Embidd level or even prime Boogie Cousins before the injury. And I love Sengun.

    This is probably my position as well, though I go back and forth on KPJ. Right now I kinda am liking him, but earlier in the season I was very much out on him.

    Only Green and Sengun are no brainer keeps at this point in their careers. Everyone else is a sell if it's not an easily tradeable deal.

    1. Porter Jr - SELL unless cheap/easily tradeable deal
    2. Jalen Green - SIGN
    3. Wood - SELL or just plain give away
    4. Tate - SIGN forthe right deal, still has to learn how to hit 3's/free throws
    5. Sengun - SIGN
    6. Martin - SIGN at the right price
    7.Christopher - SIGN at the right price
    8. Garuba Can - SELL

    Get rid of ownership and coaching stuff except John Lucas. Low confidence on Stone at this point.
