So train of thought here, why the 2025 and 2026 2nd round picks? Simple, it's the year I still own my draft picks and I wanna be able to keep 1 draft pick per season.
Why trade Ben? Well, despite me being a big believer in Ben, he's most valuable asset to me would be his contract that would help me take on an even bigger one, compared to just the open cap space. Cissoko is an intriguing prospect but it's a price I'm willing to pay in order to get the players back I will in return.
So Klay, obviously a legend, he's probably a little bit disrespected for a guy scoring 17 points on mostly 3 pointers at a 38% clip, but that's to be expected of the 2nd best pure shooter of all time. As of Andre Drummond, another guy I feel the same way, altough I'm never been the biggest fan of him, averaging 9 points and 9 rebounds in just 17 minutes per game is ridiculous, he's currently the best rebounder in the NBA bar none and has been a better center for Chicago than Vuc, so at 30 years old, I expect to keep him around for the next 2 or 3 seasons while still offering good enough production to be in the rotation.
So going forward forward for the inaugural season of HH, we're going with a 8 man rotation of Wemby, Cade, Vassell, Klay, Tre, Bruce Brown Jr, Dillon Brooks and Andre Drummond, something I'm really thrilled about specially considering how young the 3 first names are, and I really do believe this team would help Wemby be in playoff contention since Year 1, just a shame I didn't pull all the moves off since Day 1, but Day 3 seems good enough.
