And if you can't get a first-rounder, at least send Patrick Williams out with that deal.
You get this great value of Ayo Dosumu, who's $7.5 million in his final year of a contract.
Attach Patrick Williams so now you don't have that $18 million per season also on your roster.
You either get draft picks or you get rid of Patrick Williams in one of these deals.
The thing that I want people to understand before this trade deadline happens is no matter what they do, they will not be tanking.
They're just not built to tank.
They would get worse, though, obviously, if they were to make a move.
And it might be shrewd to do.
I think it would be okay to take your foot off the gas.
I'm not saying tank.
If you can get assets, as you said, you can maybe at the expense of the rest of this season, but build it right back up in the offseason with the assets that you attain.
But that's my point.
There's no really rest of this season.
Even if they get rid of some of these really good players, like their leading scorer in Kobe Whiteβ
Billy Donovan is going to coach them to play hard, and they're going to win more games than they should because the East is that bad.
Of course, and I don't think that Arturis nor Mark Eversley, getting to know them a little bit, have it in them to be guys that are going to be like, yeah, let's, hey, Billy, wink, wink.
That does not seem like what this organization would do, for better or for worse.
They refuse to pull the plug.
That's the issue.
