they need a PF draymonds replacement
Mara will be picked by OKC. This year showed them that they just need one body against Wemby for the next 20 yrs 😮😢
Gotta increase defense/rebounding capabilities while alleviating offensive pressure on Steph. Bring in guys to help Kerr come up with a system that doesn't rely so heavily on Steph's off-ball movement–Can't ask him to run 4 miles through dozens of screens every night anymore. And I think Draymond's only gonna be effective as a 4 in spurts. He can't play the 5 anymore, and you can't expect him to get up for every game. Although I do believe he's going to make a push for that 10th all-defensive team next season. Might be his last chance. So I might change my tune if he decides to show up to camp in shape.
Step 1) Use the 11th to get Aday. 7'3", 7'7" wingspan. Rim protector, facilitator. A "play-now" guy we desperately need given all our injuries.
Step 2) Add 2-way wing depth–Preferably mid-prime–Need guys who can play 70. All these guys on minutes restrictions/can't play back-to-backs are destroying our stability (Trey Murphy III? MPJ? Reacquire Wigs?)
Given how talented this draft is, this would have been the year where I wish the Dubs had two first round picks.
