To OP’s defense, he did say he wasn’t sure how many picks it would take to make that work. Begs the question whether picks and salary can deliver a rotation player borderline Allstar?
Breaking it down to its simplest point, if guys like Christian Wood (Hou) and/or Jerami Grant (DET) become available in trade, the year we signed no one, many of us wanted to add these guys while moving Randle. Most of us had written Randle off for his spinover nonsense.
If you could add them for salary and picks, what does this team look like? That free agent class is coming up in trade moves.
Would Grant (SF) and Randle (PF) be too slow?
Would Randle (PF) / Wood (C) be too soft?
Could all three work?
The question I have is whether we could use some of our war chest of picks to fill in some of our blanks without emptying our bench or giving up Barrett?
