After listening to Kaplan and slater debate the worries on acuff and wagler I’m more certain than ever we gotta go mission impossible to get into top 4. …IMO

any one of AJ, Boozer, peterson or Wilson is what this franchise DESPERATELY needs.

yes, I know the odds of getting into the top 4 are super slim but we have enough assets to make someone consider a godfather offer. 3 firsts plus 6 pick to move up 2 lousy spots? four firsts? personally, I wouldn’t hate on it. sure the Mikal trade or Gobert trade got clowned across the league but as a net fan the slings and arrows of a blatant overpay might be worth it for a future hall of fame talent to build and give hope.

how far would you go to get into top 4?

FIVE roads:

1. go for Giannis or another star and sacrifice all our assets - too much a panic move IMO

2. somehow attempt to move up to top 4 - unrealistic

3. wallow in self pity and quit on nets - no thanx

4. take on more bad contracts for more picks - had enough of that, thanx

5. go hard after 2 of 3 of Reeves, Donsunmu, and Watson - blowing all cap space

I vote route 5 in a heartbeat.

if we can pry 2 of those 3 (even at a slight overpay) we walk into next summer with:

- 2 young starters (sacrificing nothing but cap)

- 1 young potential starter via our 6th pick

- still have allllll our future assets. (Hell, we can even consolidate some players for a veteran distressed asset.)

whats your move?
