theJ Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 Yep, it's time to trade Spencer Hawes.Β Leonard is a better fit for the team (need that inside presence), and Hawes seems like he spends half the season hurt. 2016-17 Off-season Player Progression Position Name New OVR Improvement Prv OVR PG Marty McGuire 94 2 92 SF Dale Burke 93 2 91 PF Chad Elliott 81 0 81 SG Tracy King 81 1 80 PG Eric Bledsoe 80 0 80 C Meyers Leonard 76 4 72 SG Jordan Crawford 76 0 76 C Spencer Hawes 74 0 74 SG Carlos Gomez 67 1 66 C Leonard Gray 66 2 64 PF Robin Cartwright 65 3 62 C Coby Landry 62 3 59 PF Peter Boyd 61 1 60 C Clifton Bishop 56 3 53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scouted him the max times just in case it was lying. I think he's my target. Can be a Jamal Crawford replacement.Β I think I'll be able to get the Spurs pick at #7 too.

theJ Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 I rearranged the draft board in the previous post in order of talent (and moved the PGs down).

If he was there at 7, I would have a hard time passing.Β Yeah I'd still take him or Sebic at that spot. They're both PG/SG, albeit a little small for the SG position.Β In the end I want the best player. Either to play, or as a trade piece.Β Another thing I'd consider doing is move McGuire back to SG. He's a scoring PG anyway and can be just as effective in that spot. In that case I'd probably trade King.Β The only two guys completely safe here are Burke and McGuire. They're the key pieces.Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Trading bonanza!

The Warriors already have Andrew Bogut, but this will put Hawes in the starting spot and allow Bogut to give them frontcourt depth (which they had none of previously).

theJ Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Think i forgot to post this earlier. Coaches Assistant Coach Joel Cooper's contract expired - going to extend him for another 2 years Players Took Team Option for Chad Elliott (4.43M) Took Team Option for Tracy King (4.02M) Took Team Option for Chris Gomez (2.54M) Took Team Option for Leonard Gray (1.96M) Declined option on Clifton Bishop (he suckkkkkks) Jamal Crawford exercised his 1 year player option for 8.00M Sidenote: Dwight Howard, the DPOY for 4 straight years, has declined his 1 year player option (maybe because Kobe just retired?) The Lakers are now led by J.J. Hickson and a 37 Pau Gasol.Β They're going to be real bad next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 I very badly want to steal the Lakers pick for next year.Β They're not valuing it very high because they just went 43-39 led by the now retired Kobe and recently departed Dwight Howard.Β I can get it for just Jamal Crawford.
