If you looked at the assets we had in summer 2020 we are pretty much where we’re supposed to be. A team that can maybe get out of the first round

All we need is to make sure we’re matched against the Cavs. Don and Garland are always a problem but we have no answer for Embiid and you know Harden is going to the line 20 times every game.

I wouldn’t say “far ahead”…we’re about where we should be. Two stars, developing young talent that is complimentary to the two stars, a quality bench, and a pool of assets that allows further growth/roster improvement.
Gotta say, Leon Rose and WWW not doing any panic trades for a star has been very beneficial to us. They wanted Donovan Mitchell, but the way we pivoted after that deal fell through has put us in a much better position going forward. It’s been a steady build where we kinda been forced to do it the slow way, but looking at things now, it’s definitely the right way.

If we get out of the 1st round that’s great. If we don’t it’s not the end of the world either. It’s far worst if 1-4 don’t get out of the 1st round. 5-8 are lower seeded for a reason. I just want them to be competitive and look good out there. We shit the bed getting spanked by Atlanta last time. I just don’t want that to happen again.

cool article, but there’s only one sentence that gets me TOO HYPE:
“No top-eight team in either conference has the surplus of first-round picks they do.”
