    I'm good with 6 and 11.

    You get your point guard in Flemings or Acuff and a big later to replace Sengun.

    Some armchair GMs just get off moving pieces around on a board, whether they make any sense or not.

    Don’t worry about making the 10 mil, just think about all the cool stuff you’ll spend it on

    The problem is positionality. If we trade Sengun for a forward we still need a center that can be expected to play most of the season (Adams ain't him). Jabari can barely play a few-minutes-at-a-time center against small lineups. Clint is washed. So, regardless of who the better player is, is the improvement at the forward position enough to compensate for a steep decline in the center position? The vast majority of those questions are going to be answered in the negative unless you think we've seen enough and it is time for a complete tanking teardown. (I don't see it that way.)

    Right now, our surplus talent is at the forward spots with KD, Jabari, Tari, and that being the natural position for Amen. Our weak spot is point guard. That should be the focus.

    I also think that Sengun's value would go up if the coaches tweaked a few things for both the offensive and defensive schemes to better align responsibilities with skillset.
