I agree with the posters above that say Bradley has hit his ceiling. He's undersized, he's an average shooter and above average defender, and he can't create his own shot efficiently. If we had a point guard that could create his own shot then I'd be all for keeping him around, but this combination of Smart and Bradley obviously isn't working because we had one of the worst offenses in the league.
I would use Bradley and Young with 16 to move up to 9 because it's been rumored that Charlotte has interest in Bradley who would be a very good fit with Walker who is adept at creating his own shot and finding others. Use Sullinger and 28 to move up for Lyles. Draft Johnson at 9. Sign Robin Lopez.
PG: Marcus Smart
SG: Jae Crowder
SF: Stanley Johnson
PF: Trey Lyles
C: Robin Lopez
Would be an extremely interesting young core to watch that would for sure bring some wins.
I think this is a classic example of fans seeing the downside of our current players and falling in love with the potential of draft picks.
Trey lyles is an intriguing prospect with some nice tools but the odds are that he won't ever be as good as Sully. As for Johnson, he's one of my favorite players in the draft but you also have to realize that it's probably the most likely scenario that he does not end up being the best player from that trade. Avery Bradley is a good player.
You trade AB, Young, sully, 16, and 28 for what could well be a backup wing and a bench forward who doesn't play D.
Also I'm not sure how much they'd win.
I mean it will be a few years even if all goes well before lyles and Johnson are better than Sully and AB plus crowder is nice but do you want him in your starting lineup?
I like Lopez but he is neither a great scorer nor rebounder.
That starting lineup would be good defensively, tremendous even, but wouldn't score at all untill lyles (a project) develops
