I think Chris has made it known that he prefers to stay out west. But, I agree. He would be a good addition.

Reportedly he's stressing that he wants to start on a team. Not happening here.

Yuck on Paul - assume he ends up on West Coast. Dame expect him in GS or Portland or Miami.

Miami and L.A. -- guys just can't stop throwing themselves at those 2 destinations.

If we were to move Josh Hart -- Gary Payton jr would be interesting do it all energy guy who could play Hart like role - handling, passing, defending and energy. Not sure GP Jr fit's as a mediocre shooter if Josh is still on roster.

If we go bigger wings Clippers A Coffey or Magics C Houston could be 2 decent options for the minimum.

And there is also R. Westbrook --- but he's rumored to want to stay close to (you guessed it) L.A.

Adding - even if Hart stays --- Gary Payton Jr could be a good add.

He is super high energy - knows how to fit in with talented players and defends/passes/slashes -- like him a lot despite poor shooting.

We patched things up with Klutch sports. They even let Clarkson sign with us.

Looking at Payton and his best year may have been 21/22 with Warriors - also Mike Brown's last year as Assoc. Head Coach with Warriors

It’s probably not going to be a player expecting rotation minutes. It’s funny because of all the options out there, I still think 3 of the best are Shamet, Wright and Alec Burks.

Makes the most sense. He has proved that he is comfortable in the NYC lights.
