You pretty much have to do the trade now. Brown, Smart, PP or GW, 25 1st, 27 1st, 29 1st (top 4) for Durant, Curry
That makes a lot of sense for winning a title in the next 2 years
Too much.
Timelord / Horford
Durant / Gallinari
Tatum /
Curry / White
Brogdon / Pritchard
That’s an extremely talented roster, but it’s the roster we’d be stuck with, with no real avenues to upgrade.
Agreed. If they are getting Smart and another rotation guy like Williams or Pritchard, then that's too many picks. At this point, I’d equate KD impact similar to when Cs got KG. He’s a bonafide star/#1 guy. Takes pressure of JT and makes him an above average #2 banana on the roster.
Also, if this deal were to go down, am I the only one that would still want to go double bigs and leave KD at the wing and just slide White into the starting lineup? White/JT/KD/Horford/Williams. Good size and length at every position and I think JT would benefit sliding down a peg and guarding some smaller players.
