    I agree. But I think that starts with replacing the worst ones.

    I think we give Jalen until the end of the year and start shopping. An Amen Simons, Booker, or bridges combo will outperform an FVV combo with any of those guys. If Jalen performs, he and Amen is also a better backcourt. This is how I think we should start next year:

    Amen
    Jalen, Booker, Simons, or bridges
    Brooks
    Jabari
    Sengun

    FVV unless traded
    Cam
    Tari
    Adams

    By the way Amen seems to get to the hoop even without shooters around him. If he develops a stop and pop shot and or a better floater he won’t need a 3 pter

    that's the cliche to say until they actually don't which is likely and never get the same value back

    We may need in salary as trade filler. That’s more important than two SRPs.
