Trade away a young All Star PF for cap space and use that cap space on a bunch of mediocre veteran PFs instead of taking on bad contracts in exchange for draft picks and young talent brehs.
That shoulda been the plan.
The Clippers before they traded for Kawhi took on a first to take on Mo Harkless. Knicks shoulda been all over that. Brooklyn was taking on shyt deals just to get extra picks, and those picks turned into guys like Levert, Allen, Kurucs, etc.
The biggest issue I have in terms of player development is that they're too prideful to send guys like Frank and Knox to G-League when mentally it woulda done them some good.
