    Looking at who to pair with Green / Sengun / 2022 DP...

    Tried for realistic list of under 28 and not necessarily untouchable (Luka/Trae/Barrett).....

    Feel free to make suggestions...

    Should have upped the age to 30 so we can have a Landry's Tooth Thread tie-in with the Anthony Davis trade thread

    EDIT: I'd be down to play AD at SF. Let's get crazy!

    We are currently not in a position to go after a top free agent. The only way I see a trade happening is if a super star becomes available and essentially falls in our lap. Highly unlikely. Maybe we target a top free agent next year but so many variables until then.

    If you're going to dream might as well dream big! No way Denver lets him go anytime soon.

    I like 3/d guys myself... i think kpj is good enough with 4 great players around him...

    There's no young Chris Paul out there... most realistic younger guys are combo guards like kpj and not pure passers..

    Got to hope he wants a change of scenery and wants to join the elite big man tradition in Houston of Malone, Sampson, Olajuwon, Yao and er Howard….

    I think I'd be most interested in Bridges, but possibly Fox. That said, it's unlikely we can clear enough cap room to get any of those guys.

    Ja Morant continues to shout out KPJ & Green both on Twitter

    Would like to draft jabari to check the forward box off & go after Morant in a couple years

    Whatever we think of KPJ at point guard, Kevin & Jalen are two amazing young talents to have, along with Sengun, when we start free agent hunting. Just don’t waste a top 3 pick on a guard

    No way Ayton getting the max deal he covets... So I might kick the tires on him... He's regressed it seems but he's young and extremely athletic..
