    I’m just going to guess that insider DroppingDimes will be right again and we end up with Dillon Brooks.

    IDK who, but we need bigs!
    I think I said that last year.
    I think I said that the year before.
    And the year before that.

    So, do we get a big?

    I'm telling you, the plan to create the worst shooting team in the modern NBA is almost complete. Give us Capela and Brooks and we'll finally have accomplished the feat.

    Yep, obviously can't shoot but he's underrated, very scrappy.

    Time to see what Stone is made of as a GM. There isn't a comparable Free Agent to Lopez. Can Stone work a trade? It is easy to throw 130 million at FVV when Toronto wasn't going to match. No one expected the Bucks to make a 24 million a year offer to Lopez. Now Stone has to show his stones.

    Don’t mind Williams if we’re just looking for a rotational big. However if we are looking for a big to help push Sengun how about looking to facilitate a trade with the the Blazer, Knicks, Clippers who are looking to move/trade Lillard or Harden. Blazers have Nurkic. I’d like to try a rim protector like Mitchell Robinson from Knicks. Ivica Zuni’s from Clippers? He’s a solid player. If we want to gamble there’s also Ayton from the Sun’s who might be available. He’s not my top option.

    Donte DiVincenzo and Grant Williams.

    There are trade targets too.

    I believe the Rockets have until the first regular season game to hit the cap levels needed to avoid penalties.

    High time to redirect attention to other players not named Fred.

    So, sign and trade so we can keep more salary. Who is going out Martin? Who are we saving the money for?
