Would try to make this move, which I think is enough to bring us the title regardless of what becomes of Wiseman:
https://tradenba.com/trades/463e-H6c5GSW would not bat an eye paying Smart a fortune to be Steph’s and Klay’s enforcer. It’s a great situation for Marcus. They may want to move on from Dray’s contract given his age. They may be attracted by that alongside picks and Timelord over committing to Wiseman to return to health. It’s not risk-free for us, but we get a shot at a potential future all-star center in Wiseman, and obtain predictability with regards to our future cap situation.
Assuming we-resign Fournier (clearly the top priority this off-season) and Madar comes here:
Walker/Pritchard/Madar
Brown/Langford
Fournier/Nesmith
Tatum/Green/G. Williams
TT/Parker/Wiseman (Until he’s 100% healthy)
Shore up the depth with reclamation projects: Exum at 2/1 and Bender at 5/4.
Start Fournier but give Green 28-30 MPG (move Tatum to 3 when Dray is on the court with him) and Fournier 28-30 MPG at the 3/2 (basically starting alongside Tatum/Brown but once Green comes off the bench you switch to having Fournier relieve Tatum/Brown at 3/2 when they sit).
Draymond Green provides championship experience AND can guard most any position just like Smart, who’s probably going to leave if we do not trade him. Dray’s probably overpaid at this point in his career, but that’s part of the price of getting a shot at Wiseman returning to health and becoming a promising prospect again. Besides, Jayson and Jaylen could use a champion mentor like Dray, who could become for us what Iggy was to the Warriors in the mid 2010s.
Title time!
