This summer, we need to look to package Tomic, Miles' expiring, Okur's expiring, our 1st rounder(s) and virtually anything else to move up in the draft and get a legit player like Irving or Williams. You win big in this league with studs, not all-stars or solid players. Might we have to take back a crappy contract in return. Sure, it comes with the territory. But if it means we get a player who seems to be the real deal and not another Hayward-type (Don't get me wrong, I like him but c'mon), we have to go for it.
Not that I disagree with you. I would like to see us use our assets to turn it into a superstar level player. But who was the stud on the Piston's championship team in '04? And they beat a team loaded with studs (Malone, Shaq, Kobe, Payton, et al). Interesting departure.
