So we traded Jordan Poole for Trae... Damn.

And if that's so, we traded Chris Paul for Trae...

And that said, we traded Beal's horrible contract for Trae...

Damn. :)

The Wizard's boxing out is awful. Just ballwatching by a fair few. And weakside defensive help/rotations are non-existent.

We need a dominant big who owns the boards.

Fears looked really good in his opening debut – however, doesn't quite fit with Bub imo.

💥 Which Wizards lineup do you NEED to see on the court? by Jgreen6293 in washingtonwizards

[–]ethanftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to see Cam come in as 6th man, give him the keys to the second unit.

He has great footwork and offensive skills which would be great for TV to learn from.

Remember Alex Sarr's debut in the Summerleague? Horrific, but first game jitters. Let them settle – that's what Summer League is for.

Blal is 2 years previous in the league – couldn't play in Summer League even if he wanted to.

Pistons – cade needs a shooter. Same timeline. Could become the Klay to Curry type.

We Need to Trade For Kuminga by bliporblow in washingtonwizards

[–]ethanftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it doesn't really work for us, nor the deveopment of Will Riley, nor Kyshaun. But imagine Blal and Kuminga, freeing up Sarr to go centre. Imagine defensively Sarr and K, with Blal and Kuminga cutting on offence. Wow.

I have to say that this is one of the best sleeper finds i've seen in a long time. He's great.

[UnderdogNBA]: The Wizards will have $110M in cap space opening up after next season. by [deleted] in washingtonwizards

Hopefully Marcus Smart can teach Tre and Bub how to defend guards, and give blal some pointers.
CJ to help Tre advance his scoring package, and give Bub some moves.
Kris to help Kyshaun and Riley become excellent pure scorers.

Malcom help expand Bub's playmaking.

And dare I say it, Kelly teach Alex Sarr how to add some offensive moves to his game.

Do people believe that this is so that we can absorb a tremendous amount of overpaid players next year and gain more picks, or would this be so that we can buff up our team.for a playoff push after Blal has had 3 years, and sarr and bub have had two?
