These are nice problems to have. Holmes, Hardaway, Hardy deep team. When you move Hardaway, with this hot start, you still have Hardy. Curry has not been a regular part of the rotation. But for a shooter he has to be ready when called.

We definitely need an upgrade at the 4 for more size and rebounding. It would fit like a glove next to Lively. Not sure who that is or if teams are even talking deals at this point.

Williams is a natural PF. He should be playing there. He's 6'6" though

Hypothetically OMax should be that big 6'9" PF, but he's probably not going to see time on the floor until late this season and no dependable minutes until next year at the earliest.

I"d rather have more size at PF than Williams. Its great that he can defend some bigger guys and mismatches of any position though.

Agreed, with Green/Derrick Jones, Williams should be the 4.

Hopefully OMax gets LOTS of playing time in the G-league. He needs the burn.

For sure on Williams, but I still want a bigger 4 who excels at rebounding and defense as a bonus. Rotation could certainly use it. Maxi provides the defense but no rebounding.

The extra pieces are there to burn in a trade.

The FO has some work to do, no doubt. Plenty of pieces to make something happen and I think the core of this team has shown enough to make a splash, if possible.
