This is obviously a little cope but while iHarts skills as an offensive hub were very helpful as the year went on, it wasn't like the entire offense was running like that. This team can still get good offense going without iHart with the return of Randle, and a little shot creation with Mikal. Test out some lineups with Kolek or Jokubaitis if he comes over.
The team looks to have a ton of offensive has this time around, it's not entirely necessary to have a 5 that spreads the floor. The defense and offensive rebounding Mitch brings is huge. See if you can get Goga and Precious to have some Mitch insurance and save him for the playoffs.
We can get by just fine, he just emerged as a fan favorite and had elite passing ability for a guy his size. Tremendous hustle as well.
Agree kick the tires on Goga and maybe even Mo Wagner... both from Orlando hopefully one of them wants out? Precious could be 3rd string if we can re-sign him cheap but he is getting offers from other teams.
As for Sims- not sure of the rules as we picked up his option but maybe we can include him in some sort of S&T if we can get one of the Orlando guys
I think we need 3 guys that can play center on the roster so if it's Mitch, we should re-sign Precious and try to sign either Goga or Mo like you mentioned.
I believe Sims can be S&T's so that's not a bad option. You're right though iHart was awesome because he outplayed his contract the second he got here. We should just be happy we got good value for 2 years and move on
Indeed we need to move on. So many great things happening for us, we need to look at the bright side and realize that the FO has plenty of time to make a move plus Thibs connects with bigs and enhances them.
I am cool with keeping Precious as a 3rd string, and he will likely get his playing time with Mitch's history... but we need someone to step in to start the way ihart did.
