    I think the key to all of this is how ATL's front office views Kobe Bufkin. Size wise, the are the same. Kobe was also know for being a defensive guard in college. If he can score efficiently (as he has been doing in his recent G-League stint), then trading DJ makes a ton of sense. Use the draft capital to get another proven all-star somewhere down the line.

    Kobe sucks...if we don't get a star beside Trae that can win...then Trae is gone.he won't redign..so front office better get some help now..picks are unless..unless u turn them in a 3 or 4 team trade with djm

    I really like the length of Claxton and newfound defensive effort of Dennis Smith. Both are FA’s this offseason. Claxton could fit next to JJ or OO up front.

    OO can go also..I like him but he's a in-between

    If the choice if hard or soft rebuild vs. one strong effort.  I would try one strong effort. 

    Here's the thing.

    Pascal Siakam has already told us that he will not resign.     He's not a good defensive player anymore.  He's a high usage player.  He doesn't shoot from outside that well.  

    If we took him, it's a rental.  And  I am good with that as long as we control the terms of the rental. 

    I would offer no more than AJ, Hunter, and Patty for Siakam. 

    This lends itself to a starting 5 of:

    CC/Siakam/JJ/DJ/Trae. 

    Our depth is shot.   Siakam is leaving after this.  But with this 5...  Bufkin, Bey, Bogi, and OO off the bench...  what can we do?

    This would be the experiment.   To see if we can win with DJ/Trae.   IF not, then in the offseason, move Siakam, move DJ, move CC or whoever... our level of play will determine what needs to be done. 

    Now, if AJ becomes a star.   IF Hunter becomes a star...  Doesn't matter.  We knew that they were not going to be that here. 

    I guess this plan is just giving ourselves a chance to see if it can really work.

     

    AJ will never be a star..bench player at max..he needs to go also

    Thank you.  I feel like you guys pretty much spelled this out.  This deal very much depends on Grimes ability to be primary POA defender, the picks, and pick protections.  Hoping for something better.  

    That trade sucks..period
