Also Danny playing with a broken finger
nobody cares, he’s making $15m. these are all excuses
Even after the AD trade, we still have our 1st round picks:
1. This year
2. 2022 (2021 is top-8 protected and I mean, c'mon lmao)
3. 2023 (only a swap)
4. Either 2024 or 2025 (unprotected in 2024 but they could defer to 2025 if the Pelicans want lol)
So we still have a 1st round pick 4 out of the next 6 seasons lol

I always enjoy seeing our scouting dept find some gems late in the first round but we should have no problem acquiring good role players via free agency over the next 2-3 seasons so it’s all good
"But will he show up in the playoffs, can he handle the pressure?"

Cos he making 15 million, he can’t get injured? Tf

Wouldn’t be surprised if Mook signed with us next season lol. Chance to play with his brother + good relationship with Bron. But I think he’ll chase a bag before a ring tbh
Keep most the squad. Run it back. Unless someone gives us a deal we can’t turn down for Kuzma. Bring everyone back, flip Danny and the 1st round pick for a starting point. Rondo is the man, but another PG would be nice. Slide KCP to his natural 2 and Caruso as his backup. Maybe bring Cousins back. Resign all the guys. Run it back
Most of the role players signed 2 year deals last summer. However, the following guys have player options this offseason
AB
KCP
Javale
Rondo
The following guys are off the books this summer
Dudley
Dwight
Morris
Dion
Kostas
Cacok
I pray we keep Dwight & Cacok. Morris is a maybe from me...i like him but feel like there might be better options going forward
Can see Javale and Rondo not exercising their options since they're probably not getting much more elsewhere, and in Rondo's case I can see AD and Bron convincing him to come back.
AB I'd hope he wouldn't exercise his as well, but regardless it's a priority to bring him back.
KCP probably exercises his option truthfully and I wouldn't even blame him. None of this is possible without him, he'd get his ring so he'd want his money. I'd be willing to re-up him but if he gets a solid pay day elsewhere then I wish him nothing but the best
As for the others gotta bring Dwight back, he's another priority. I lean yes on Morris and Cacok, Dion is a toss up, and Kostas is the designated "tampering roster spot" since KCP leveled up.
damn near owe Rondo a jersey purchase at this point
He's been doing this for three rounds

Guy deadass doesn't give a damn about the regular season

Averaging almost 8 assist and 10 points on stupid efficiency, why can’t he give us 60% off this in regular szn

Is he getting more minutes
Also playoffs are typically more half court oriented which he shines in
I’d guess our fast break points are down from regular season average

a few possibilities here
1. rondo is much better at zeroing in on a specific opponent for 4+ games in a row rather than caring game to game, team to team in the regular season
2. He saves his legs and paces himself during the regular season, taking possessions on defense off, etc
3. He’s a massive troll who purposely ruins the scouting report for opposing teams
I think it’s a mixture of all 3 tbh
