I would be very pleased with the following.

Draft Fultz, sign Hayward and JaMychal Green.

Release/waived/traded or not resigned: Zeller, Johnson, Mickey, Gerald Green and Jerebko

PG: Thomas, Rozier, Jackson
SG: Bradley, Smart, Fultz
SF: Hayward, Brown, Nader
PF: Green, Crowder, Jabusele
C: Horford, Olynyk, Žižić

That's an almost 15 deep. Fultz and Rozier will get plenty minutes until IT comes back.

My first team would be: IT (Smart - until IT's comeback), Bradley, Hayward, Green and Horford.

Bench mob would be: Smart (Rozier), Fulz, Brown, Crowder, Olynyk

Security/D league: Jabusele, Žižić, Jackson and Nader
Im glad youve kept with the theme: rosters that arent even close to working under the salary cap

What? You are saying that this team is not possible? Well, who said we should be under the cap next season? If we gonna sign some star player, you have no choice then to give those two players half of your salary. Of course, we could go with 12 players deep plus 3 d-leaguers, salary wise. Of course you don't need 15 players for the season, you need max 12 whi should be involved.

There should be a CBA exam required for registering to these forums.  Reading this inanity is extremely taxing.

Yeah this roster is not remotely close to possible.

With this roster you'd have to fit Jamychal Green and Gordon hayward into a combined 20 million in cap space.

What do you think Celtics working out Isaac,doubt their looking at drafting him with the 1 pick.Looks like he may go around 7

It's due diligence.

It's always good to have knowledge of players all over the draft board in case a trade comes up or even just to gather information on players you might be interested in 3 or 4 years down the line.

If they want to go after Hayward and I think they do, one or more of Bradley, Crowder, Smart needs to go for either picks or a rookie contract. I could certainly see Isaac being a guy they target w/ Bradley, Crowder or perhaps even both.

Good picks. My personal hope is....

(PG) Isaiah Thomas, Terry Rozier
(G) Michael Jordan, Marcus Smart
(SF) Gordon Hayward, Tommy Heinsohn
(PF) Biggie Smalls, Olynyk
(C) Al Horford, The giant guy from Happy Gilmore

Well rounded team.

I love it!! TP!

Will Wyc pay the Luxury Tax? The Lakers may see this team and just counter with

Lonzo Ball
LaMelo Ball
DiAngelo Ball
Lavar Ball
Tupac Shakur ... (west cooooooooast)

Now explain to Lavar how you beat this team.

We'd need to trade Horford and Griffin has to give up about 3 million to the max to make it work, but it would be the best team that I can think of that would be somewhat realistically possible and would be worth it to build it as an instant contender and main challenger of the Warriors. We'd be able to keep the core intact for a number of years.

PG: Isaiah Thomas, Terry Rozier, rookie
SG: Avery Bradley, Markelle Fultz, Gerald Green
SF: Paul George, Jaylen Brown, Abdel Nader
PF: Blake Griffin, free agent (MLE), Jonas Jerebko
C: Brook Lopez, Ante Zizic, Thomas Bryant

Main rotation for the playoffs:

PG: Thomas (36), Fultz (12)
SG: Bradley (32), Fultz (16)
SF: George (20), Brown (28)
PF: Griffin (32), George (16)
C: Lopez (32), Zizic (16)

LOL, TP. I've thought the same after reading the OP and another user, Cro...something.
