That Donte trade was unexpected but they didn't wanna pass on Kat. This was on the table for 2 years. They were even at one point offering Mitchell and Randle for Kat. It makes sense. Don't be surprised if Donte, Hart and Brunson had this discussion months ago before the move. They were obviously not renewing Randle.

If ya don’t stop reminiscing about Donte and Randle. I remember most of ya thought grimes bum a$$ was gonna be a legit player and said we should of moved deuce instead.

Our starting lineup is probably the 2nd or 3rd best in the league. Our bench needs help but I 100% trust Leon to make all the right moves during the season if necessary.

:whew: Not me. Duece and IQ were my guys....

Still miss IQ lowkey......and you already know how I felt about Randle (and RJ).

Nıgga almost made me a Pacers fan if it wasn't for Brunson.

2k style minutes distribution for whenever yall set up yalls rotation timeline:

Brunson - 34mpg at point
Bridges - 22 at sg, 12 at the 3
Hart - 23 at sf, 13 at pf
OG - 34mpg at pf
KAT - 32mpg at C

Deuce - 26mpg at sg
Payne/Kolek 14mpg at pg
Shamet - 14mpg at sf
Precious -16mpg at C

When somewhat healthy:

Brunson - 34mpg
Bridges - 22mpg at 2, 14 at the 3
Hart - 34mpg at the 3
OG - 32mpg at pf
Kat -30mpg at the 5, 2min at pf

Deuce - 26mpg at sg
Robinson - 18mpg at C(min restriction)
Precious - 14 mpg at PF
Payne/Kolek - 14 mpg at point

Still think the team is heavily shopping for a C. If not, I see Precious taking the starting spot placing Kat at 4 with Sims and Hart coming off the bench.
  1. Brunson
  2. Bridges
  3. OG
  4. Kat
  5. Precious

Bench unit:
  1. Kolek
  2. Duece
  3. Shamet
  4. Hart
  5. Sims 😬
Ideally, I think this could really work on all perimeters - rebounding, offense, defense, shooting.
