Presti is going to turn some of those picks and guys like Williams or Dort into superstar running mates for SGA. Meanwhile, Griff wasted 2 1st rounders getting us onto and off of Steven Adams.

Williams is a future star. They ain’t trading him. More likely they trade giddey and Wallace

I think what's happened with the Suns, Lakers, and even Clippers being top heavy and losing (trade or just not being able to resign) depth and good role players will change an aging idea about "need" for multiple All NBA players. Helpful? Absolutely. Worth decimatimg depth? Maybe not.

I don't think he's stupid, if they trade anyone it's going to be Giddey because he doesn't really fit.

I don't see them trading JDub or Dort.

No way they are trading Jalen Williams. Dude might not be a superstar given he's playing with SGA and Chet, but he is a guy that every team in the NBA would give up a decent amount for. They'd be idiotic to let go of him.

The assets that Griff wasted in 5 years could have been used to get their team closer to a contender.

He has wasted pretty much all of the AD haul trying to find dinosaurs to play the 5. He is lost in the 80s.
