I agree with Brad about trading the picks.
You have 2 young wings which means you can barely play whos behind them (Nessi)
You have 2 young/mid-career backourts, which means you can barely play whos behind them (Payton)
...and then you add the young pleasant surprise Grant Williams has become...a killer non-trade.
The only place you can bring a young guy to break him in is at the Big....and you have Timelord there.
Now we can argue about when it would be time to move on from Hofford and/or Theis. But then, you don't want to go into the playoffs with young inexperienced bigs against Giannis or Embid or Adebayo or Jokic,
...heck, even Chicago's center is a handful (forgot his name
)
...and most of all, Brads comes from the school of thought that team Chemestry and "fit" is what makes a team overachieve. And I appreciate that as well.
Job well done Brad. Keep it up.....and please ignore the pressure of bringing Beal. I don't think he fits in the culture we are currently creating; but that is a discussion for another day.
