Don't agree with you. But what is YOUR best course of action?
I think its the best way to become competitive, especially with Porzingis and Frank. We are basically one wing away from being a top 10 defensive team. However this team is still a long way away from being a legit contender
I think drafted Mikal Bridges and having KP, Frank, and Bridges in the lineup make us a top 5 defensive team very soon. Having guys like Hardaway and Burke will help take the offensive pressure off of KP, but it will be important to add another big time scoring forward. Something like KP, Tabias Harris, Bridges, Hardaway, and Ntilikina with Burke at 6th man is something that can work in today's game. Positionless offense team and top 5 defensive team. How far a team like that goes in the playoffs ultimately depends on Bridges and Frank development.
burke is our starting PG, that's a given
Next year most likely, but long-term i think Frank starts and Burke is 6th man.
i doubt he starts for any long period honestly. defensive liability
I bet Burke, Frank, and Hardaway all start together next year. Burke is a defensive liability, but having Frank next to him helps.
Lance at 4 and Kanter/KOQ at 5... boy that looks like another 25ish wins. I am willing to be surprised though!
