    Sign FVV and Lopez.
    Trade #20, Tate, and KJM to the Mavs for #10 and Bertans
    Draft Amen at 4, Gradey Dick at 10.

    FVV / Green / Dick / Smith / Sengun
    Amen / KPJ / Eason / Bertans / Lopez

    This would be a good, realistic plan.

    Our shooting and defense would get a lot better.

    don't love it but this team would probably be fringe play-in. also KPJ would be starting, not Dick and our defense would be so bad until the 2nd unit got in.

    Perfect example of an idiot on tv that just talks out of his asss without putting in any work

    If OKC wants Amen and gives us 2 or 3 of our picks back for upcoming years, would you trade the #4 pick to them?

    (46:38) Windhorst: There was awhile where the Rockets thought they might move this pick. It doesn’t sound like they’re looking to move this pick anymore. They are looking to move maybe some other players on the roster to free up cap space. It is my understanding they’re gonna stay put here.

    Is there a world where the Rockets are able to keep Green, Jabari, Sengen, Eason while adding Paul George, FVV and #4 pick.

    Can salaries work on this? I was kind of just brainstorming because I believe Clippers know PG is bolting at the end of the year and teams aren't giving up a top 5 pick for an old superstar so he might come cheaper than people expect. KPJ and Tate would likely be in deal, maybe the #10 if we could acquire it, fillers, etc.

    No. A trade for PG will hurt. I don’t think it can be done with just picks, either. LAC has a new stadium and needs to be able to market accordingly. I don’t think they are interested in a rebuild, and certainly not interested in any trade, where they lose Paul George and don’t receive a win-now player who will draw fans.

    Or you can lose PG for nothing and be in the same situation the 76ers are in with Harden.

    This is a good plan, but I'm not sure Lopez buys in. Are we sure we're passing on Lively if he's available at #10? Sign Brooks instead? My alternative...

    FVV / Green / Brooks / Smith / Sengun
    Amen / KPJ / Eason / Bertans / Lively

    Alright, y’all wanna get crazy? Let’s get crazy.
    Sign Harden and Brooks
    Trade 4 for 6 and 11
    Trade 20, Tate, and KJM for 10 (take Bertans if necessary)
    Draft Ausar, Anthony Black, and Lively.

    Harden / Green / Ausar / Smith / Sengun
    Black / KPJ / Brooks / Eason / Lively
