First and foremost I'd sign the high pick we'll be getting without going over the cap - something we'd struggle to do with Pek still there. Then I'd start looking for good quality youngish players that won't cost a huge pile of money, but have something to offer us. Khris Middleton would be right at the top of my list - versatility, great defense and good shooting ability. Start him at shooting guard with Martin and LaVine coming off the bench. If no luck, look at other guys - preferably bigs - like Thompson, for example. Just keep trying to add guys that could offer us something for the years to come. Elsewhere, we need to try to find some support at point guard. The organisation loves Martin; I doubt we'll move him.Been looking at the contracts a bit closer, Lets say you can move Pekovic's contract ($38 million over 3 years) who would you target?
You have Rubio, Wiggins and Lavine to completely build around. What do you target over summer? Do you move K Mart and Pekovic?
Lets say the Big Footy Wolves have control of the franchise whats the thoughts going forward the next 3 years?
I don't know basketball as well as many so some of this may not be realistic - but to me that $38M owed to a guy who won't offer us anything when we're contending, and isn't fit enough to offer much now, as a team that's already toeing the line of the cap could surely be better used if we can find somebody to take the contract on. All goes to plan we'd be looking at a roster with Wiggins, Towns, Middleton, LaVine, Rubio, Muhammad and Dieng - not looking bad at all.
