Hey gang, realistically, when can we expect the major offseason moves we are all speculating to begin?
Also,
What are the Top 3 things in a perfect world you would like to* happen?

1. Trade CJ
2. CJ requests trade
3. CJ retires

Griffin is going to be searching high and low for BI trades.
The question is will he be willing to:
1) Not be seen as the clear immediate overwhelming winner of the trade; and
2) Will he be willing to "take a step back" with younger talent instead of immediate "star" help

I think the Pels should unload CJ and/or LN for salary cap flexibility. The next step is to draft a big that is an offensive threat. I think the center from Duke, Marquette and Indiana fit the bill.
However number one is player development. Z and DD need to develop their bb skills. Z has to lose another twenty pounds this summer not during the season. My guess is his hamstrig injury is a direct result of tried muscles or lack of conditioning. Secondly he has to develop a midrange shot. Z's game will better fit Brandon if Z's defender has to respect his outside shoot.
Daniel's needs to play one position not be a jack of all trades. He needs an outside shot and a floater. With avmobile center and Z new found shot it will allow DD to drive the lane.

I will say I am hating the CJ extension a lot less if we can replace BI with a player that will shoot 3's.
As much as I don't trust Willie, I do trust Borrego.
We had a very good offense last (this) season.
Our biggest issues last year in order were:
#1. BI not buying in
#2. No true team identity or flow (Zion+3pt is solution)
#3. Lack of Center depth (defense)
#4. Not having a game closer
#5. Injuries
For the first time injuries isn't #1 (butterfly effect, save the "playoff zion" arguments). Zion also proved he has grown past #4.
Replace #1 issue for someone who fills #2 issue and all we need is fricking Center depth.

BI is the number one issue. Most of the stuff I’ve seen online has been pretty shite, except for one article throwing Herro and Jimmy Buckets our way, which would be cool.
Assuming we don’t get back an athletic big who can switch onto smaller players effectively in a BI trade, then getting that guy would be my #2 priority.
Lock up Trey for the next several years would be my third. I’d love to see a coaching change, but based on Griff’s comments after elimination, I don’t think that is a realistic expectation. Certainly not at the very top
