Title says it all. What do you guys think it’s going to take to get this raps team back to the finals?
Obviously we can’t predict everything so I’m not saying to know exactly, but if you had full reign over the team, how would you plan to go from where we are now, to the finals?
I personally torn on whether to sell and rebuild around Scottie, or whether with a bit of retooling and player improvement we can actually front a competitive team. We clearly have a glaring hole in shooting that needs to be addressed (I know it wasn’t gonna happen but I still think Dame would’ve been perfect), and the bench could be strengthened a bit more.
Anyways, curious to hear everyone’s thoughts!
It’s not complicated
- Focus on finding Scottie a young PG who can develop alongside him
- Re-sign OG to a long contract
- Surround Scottie, OG, and whoever they drafting/trading for with shooters
- Focus on drafting development and stop trading all our picks away for veteran players who don’t move the needle
Scottie becomes Kawhi Antetokounmpo
Strip it down. Get rid of Masai’s passion projects and fill the roster with dudes who can play basketball. Precious is 100% not a guy who can play basketball. He’s worse than Thanasis.
Our path back to the finals was in the 2020 season and I still believe till this day if Lowry doesn’t get into foul trouble we were winning that game
