Obviously the team needs help on many levels. Where do you start?
My opinion:
1. Number one priority is we get an elite playmaker/pure point guard. It’s not the end of the world if we can’t find that guy but it would be great to have a floor general who can shoot 3s and facilitate and defend. A leader. Is it possible to get that guy? Who? How? Ja Morant is the guy. He’s got it. We have to win the lotto, not likely, or we have to trade up to get him.
2. Big man. Rim protector. Shot blocker. Rebounder. How do we get this guy? We need to replace AD’s defense by getting a big man who can defend PLUS other players who are awesome defenders. Start with getting a big who can take care of the paint. Steven Adams type guy would be awesome. Okafor isn’t that guy. Can we find a center in FA?
3. SF. We don’t need Tatum. We need a 3 and D guy who is super reliable. If we can trade up to get Morant from day the Bulls or Knicks etc then we can find a way to get the SF 3 and D guy or just a damn good SF. Kevin Knox is fine. I’d take him, Morant, and the shot blocking center Mitchell and another piece if we could.... solved a lot right there. A PG, SF, C. Of course nothing is guaranteed but if all 3 of those guys play well one or two could become stars.
