As I've consistently stated, I think Christian Wood should be the target.  Fits in the TPE, is available, and would be a great fit offensively.  Defensively needs work, but he has the physical tools to be at least an average defender.
He’s got a nice offensive game but his motor/maturity leave a lot to be desired.
I think he'd be excellent as a first guy off the bench to give us some offence, especially as JT is often first off the floor. Not sure how he'd go in our switching scheme
At this point, The Cs need to be all in for the next few years to cash in on JB/JT. Use the entire TPE on a good player. Sign some vets. Whether it be Wood or Barnes or whatever, they should be selling out to be a contender.

I think the way to go is to add a useful player or two on expiring contracts.  If things don’t work out, trade them at the deadline in a deal for Barnes, Collins or whoever else might be available.

This is how I see it too - go get a bench vet making low teens who can soak up some December/January wear-and-tear on the Jays, even if it you have to ship out Nesmith to do it. If they work out really well then great, and if not you can really easily staple together a few contacts with as many firsts as necessary to get involved in talks if a big name guy comes available.

Like, he's not going to excite anyone, but Terrence Ross can give you 15 minutes a night against Charlotte in the middle of the winter when guys are dinged up, and Ross/Theis are about $20 million in contracts to play with at the deadline.

Not under a TPE he doesn’t.

Sign and trades are functionally unworkable for Boston this summer because they trigger the hard cap. I guess you could try to sign him with the TMLE, but I'd guess he wants to be somewhere that'll give him a bigger role.

I like the team like it is, I am a huge fan of PP and i love Derrick white. However, Theis and Nesmith could be upgraded I love Nesmith energy but everytime he shoots looks like someone threw a drat at the rim. I really like Derrick white he might be our most underrated player after Time Lord.

He'd fit well. What would have to give up to get him?

I'm not sure how much more than a 1st it would take.  Perhaps Nesmith and a 1st.
