    Porzingis is never healthy, otherwise he would be a no-brainer, but he is literally Victor Oladipo at this point.

    also seems Luka doesn't like the guy from their time in Dallas, so probably not happening

    Those center options are not worth the money. Sabonis is a more polished Ayton; low motor center. Davis and Zinger are hurt 40 games a year. We dont need an all star center. We need someone who can defend, rebound, and be a lob threat. We have enough offense.

    Sabonis would either be fantastic, and we’d have a top 5 offense and a passable defence.

    Or (and admittedly more likely), we’d have the world’s most leaky defence and get bounced in the first round.

    But he is a heck of a player.

    You need 3 defensive players on the perimeter , 2 of them capable of hitting shots ..

    Once you got them ( it's hard) , you can compete for a title .

    I don’t agree with that. What I’m looking at this in these playoffs between New York And San Antonio OKC Denver Minnesota.

    We need mores more/ more.
