Like, say Paul George and Jimmy Butler are super expensive or Ainge decides he won't pay a premium for a rental in Paul George. Bulls may choose to keep Butler especially if they win this series and try to build around him with his modest contract.
And Hayward, Griffin, Millsap, Lowry all stay put or go elsewhere.
Kelly Olynyk, Amir, Jerebko, Zeller, Mickey all likely gone, which means we have Horford, Zizic, then nada.
Would you want to take the risk with Drummond? Fills our rebounding weakness and can neutralize the opposing bigs better than anyone here right now.
Yes, the biggest issue people have is with his free throw shooting, and I agree that's the main reason I'd stay away from him.
BUT, as I said, if we whiff on EVERYONE and don't keep any of our bigs hitting FA (which I won't mind tbh), this may be an option.
I know DET may ask for that 2017 pick, but say they settle on the 2018 Nets Pick, Zeller, Bradley, and either another non-Brooklyn 1st or Crowder + filler. Would you do that?
I think this works out cap-wise especially with some contracts leaving, but correct me if I'm wrong.
