Stay away from Overpaying Conley and chasing a redundant Durant. Don't make the same mistake we made when we rushed to get Tyson and missing out on CP3 a year later.

The goal needs to be to win a championship not simply make the playoffs by overpaying for other teams declining stars.

In the meantime, revist getting Melo to opt out in the offseason. Stockpile picks and assets. Maybe we get lucky again with another lottery pick. Field a competive young team that might even make the playoffs in the East like Boston did. Even if we aren't lucky to draft another difference maker like KP keep stockpiling picks and assets and go after Anthony Davis big time.

Obviously New Orleans can offer him the most money assuming the Saints owner isn't cheap, but they've never been a stable organization and like Lebron he may want to put himself in a better situation to win a ring and bring New York their first since 73.

I know this doesn't go in line with the rush to overpay Conley and make the playoffs next year but I got time and patience. Anyone else have time or are we all on borrowed time? Build from within. Build a team of young guys who complete every night, stockpile assets and the significant FA's will come.

Why is Davis, Shumpert, Rubio on your Dream list and WTF.

And your logic doesn't make sense. Melo to opt out in the offseason and you still find Durant redundant?

gunsnewing wrote:Hmm That's true.

I guess you can try to get Durant but if he chooses not to come sit on the money for a run at Davis

Davis who is signed through 2020? Come on man, you can do better than that.

Also, your dream backcourt of Rubio and Shumpert is still waiting to figure out how to make a layup.

Shump on your dream team??? Really? He is way overpaid and way untalented. How about a SG that actually can shoot the ball. Makes a team so much better. Besides everything else he is so injury prone. Nothing like living in the past.

Our locks are KP, Rolo and Melo...

It would be a dream to have Westbrook....but on my team he would have to play off the ball. I also like him playing next to a shooter in the backcourt. Calderón in his prime would have been nice... but since we have Jimmer Ferdette, I want this cat to win. It would be a fantastic story if he came home and finally played to his potential.

So i got:

KP
Melo
Rolo
Jimmer
Westbrook

work that triangle and get out the way of Westbrook when we need to create something outside the triangle.

Two years ago we were starting, as we entered a stretch run of trying to make the playoffs, the following:

Ray Felton
JR Smith
Carmelo Anthony
Amar'e Stoudemire
Tyson Chandler

Basically what I'm saying is... Predicting two years out... a lot is gonna change.

That would be sick

Meanwhile Boogie Cousins is laughably immature, has missed the playoffs six straight seasons - every season he's been in the league - and he's never ever even won 30 games in the NBA. And yet people act like he's a franchise player.
