That will only work if some of those players end up being just above average. Let's say Trae and Collins keep trending upwards, you gonna have to pay them top dollar. So now you have a slot for one more really good player so let's say that's Cam. Now you have to hope Heurter and Hunter just stay one dimensional and don't develop into someone you can throw cash at. And you need to win before its time to pay Wiseman.

A core is 3 players and not 6 for a reason.
We own cam and deandre for 4 years minimum before they get paid. Money is not an issue.

We can even sign someone within the next 2 years and be just fine. We have bird rights on all of our guys so we can go above the cap to keep all of them

We have them in house. We can keep them. And realistically not all of them will demand top money. I'm not saying we will have 6 all stars in house. But I dont get what you're saying. By some miracle all of them become so great they all demand top money, we will never be in a position where we'd hope one of the players stops developing. That's counter intuitive to the whole concept of drafting good players.

We suck on the backends of B2B. I think the one that we won is because we out whooped the game before.
