- Fire Udoka/Hire Billups
- Trade Jaylen Brown (preferably for Bradley Beal to see if the Tatum/Beal duo works)
- Limit RWIII minutes to 15-20 until he shows more discipline.
- Play Payton Pritchard 25 mpg.
- Trade Schroder for whatever you can get.
- Trade Marcus Smart, Juancho Hernangomez + Picks for Jerami Grant.
- Waive Horford next year and free up salary cap.
- (I know people will gasp) Sign Kyrie Irving in free agency

Starting Lineup

Kyrie Irving
Bradley Beal
Jayson Tatum
Jerami Grant
Robert Williams III

Billups?  The guy that is coaching Portland to the worst record they have since 2007.  That guy?  I stopped reading after that nonsense.

Yeah, I had pretty much the same reaction.  I did read the post, though.  Even ignoring that we won’t have any cap room to sign anybody, I think a Kyrie / Beal / Tatum / Grant team would play A LOT of iso.

I think I can begrudgingly convince myself over the course of the next couple of days that:

Trading Brown for a star asking for a trade is our only path forward

Two key steps, imo:
1. Replace Ime Udoka with Šarūnas Jasikevičius. He's the head coach of Barcelona which is arguably the best basketball team in Europe right now.
2. Trade as many picks as necessary for a 3rd star. We got all our future firsts intact. I think we have the assets to get the job done.

Is this site simply ridiculous trade ideas now and complaining after every loss? Seriously, Kyrie took a crap on the leprechaun but he will come back and sign as a free agent! LOL

An unrelated side note. Anyway of the Celtics getting Gordon Hayward back? Would this year's first, GWill, CJ Miles, Romeo and Joe Johnson make it happen?
