Some guys (Smart, Antoine) have no conscience and will shoot regardless of who they are out there with. Smart would shoot deep 3's if he were out there with Larry Bird, Jerry West, Steph Curry and Michael Jordan.

Maybe not having Kyrie around will free him and others up mentally. Kyrie was so outspoken about how great a shooter he was that maybe guys like Jaylen started overthinking taking shots - especially if they missed the first one or two. Even Gordon was hesitant to shoot if he missed his first couple last year. By that same token, does that mean we’ll see Smart hoisting up lots of 3s again 🧐 I am OK when Smart takes 5 shots only per game.

Jaylen is gonna get a lot more than Smart. Smart's jumper was broken when he signed his deal. I bet Jaylen would turn down a 4/90 offer from the Celtics right now. If he has a good year some team is gonna throw a max at him.

If he has a good year some team is gonna throw a max at him. Teams were already inquiring about his availability (which we quickly shut diwn), so we know he’s got interest out there. If we won’t offer him a big contract, other teams will.

To be honest, any offer right now below the max I don't think he'll take as he's going to get paid based on his potential especially how much Rozier got on the open market for having an subpar year.

I think he ends up being traded for a starting big, hopefully Adams, but the roster is imbalanced and it seems as if Danny doesn't want to pay him, so then we need to use him to get the starting big guy that we need. I wouldn't be surprised if we get involved with the Heat and Thunder trade that will eventually happen to send Paul to Miami to grab Adams.

Not sure how you can add Adams to this roster without giving up any of the core members since he's making roughly $25mill per year? You'll have to add 3 or more guys to match up (Brown/Smart/Kanter/Theis) or throw the towel on Gordon Hayward.

We have plenty of draft picks, which is what OKC wants since they are blowing it up and can't attract free agents.

I keep thinking that Romeo Langford is a replacement for Jaylen if he asks more than Danny wants to give him. I don't think he is worth the max at this point. Maybe if he has a great season and takes a step forward in his development but not right now. Javonte Green may even be a replacement for him. Danny has no shortage of wings and I don't think he will overpay for Brown. I think Tatum is headed for a max contract if he takes another step up this season.

And first round draft picks are worth anywhere between 4-7m depends on their slot. And you only have to get to 70% of the salary to complete the trade. So Jalen and two first rounders will get it done because we only have to get to 17.5M to reach that 70% mark. Hell two picks if they are high will go way over that. Or add a third pick and match, that is how teams dump salary.

Trades need to be approved before they can go through. Picks have no cap value in a trade. Trust us on this one.
