I'm done with this team for a while (again). They are just too frustrating.
 

My guess is we see Connelly make some reactionary trades for another PG (Sexton, White, etc) along with a backup C/PF, especially if Naz is part of any trade.

With our Cap restrictions and lack of tradable assets, I find it hard to believe there are any trades even remotely possible that would make us a legitimate title contender this season.

Conley's rapid decline over the last 1.5 years has really hurt this team in a lot of ways that don't always show up in the stats sheet.

The trades should look forward to next year and beyond.

Some guys who still have years to go.

I think we are gradually getting to the point where Ant is going to get frustrated.

Agreed. I have no doubt that a trade for Coby White (that doesn't include any of our top 6 guys) makes us better this year.

The problem is we can't afford to re-sign White and because we're over the Cap, we can't use his departing salary to sign a different player in FA to replace him. We're also without whatever trade assets we used to acquire White initially.

These types of young players with untapped potential will be tough to pry away from other teams without tradable draft picks.

It's very possible. He seems happy here, as was KAT, but these guys want to win a title as badly as the fans want them to.

This is a tough spot that Connelly has put himself in.
