What Does This Team Need Most?

[NewArena]

Getting sharpe and getting rid of non defensive players might work like following
Success would rely on Sharpe breaking out, a little on Lonzos health and on Grant accepting a Aaron Gordon like role.
It deepens our rotation too.

Kings receive
Shaedon Sharpe
Jerami Grant (probably need to take him on if we want Sharpe)
Robert Williams

Lonzo Ball

Duncan Robinson

Mark Williams
2nd round pick Charlotte 25 (#33)
2nd round pick Charlotte 27 via Por or Nop

Kings give
Domas
Valanciunas
DeRozan
Monk

Blazers give
Sharpe
Jerami Grant
Robert Williams

Blazers receive
Domas
Valanciunas

Bulls give
Lonzo

Bulls receive
Jaquez
Okogie

Heat give
Jaquez
Duncan Robinson

Heat receive
DeRozan

Hornets give
Mark Williams
2nd round pick Charlotte 25 (#33)
2nd round pick Charlotte 27 via Por or Nop

Hornets receive
Monk

Rotation could look like this, too

Starting
Lonzo/Sharpe/LaVine/Grant/Williams

Bench
Devin Carter/Keon/Keegan/Keegan/Timelord

Lonzo wouldn't have to play heavy minutes in the RS and Keegan could play minutes at the 3 and the 4.
Duncan Robinson can get some at the 3.
If Grant refuses to take on a smaller role, banish him to the bench and start Keegan. Or maybe start Keegan directly.

With more and more experts talking about trading domas might je right, and Perry being a convincing personality, it might not be that far off. At least thats what i hope

Kings give up WHAT???

"Me and Doug are defensive-mindset guards; we're going to be way better defensively. I think we're putting a lot of emphasis on picking up the ball 94 feet and pressuring and being physical. But we gotta get the right personnel to play that style of basketball," - Bobby Jackson on Mike Bibby's 'Straight Game Podcast.'

That is definitely not Malik Monk's game, nor Zach LaVine's. They are both speed and finesse players, even though Monk made great efforts on the defensive end when he played 45 games as a starter this past season.

Pacers picked up 94 feet for most of the Playoffs but you have to have the personnel for it and the conditioning

One of the things that makes Bobby's quote so interesting...

Devin Carter and Keon are this to a T. One more player, maybe Clifford, and that's all you really need.

yes indeed. the next question is, do they have the conditioning to do this consistently?

Carter, Ellis, Clifford, and I think Keegan Murray in some instances.
