Okay, I'm caught up with everyone's posts. Here's my take:
1. It seems everyone is forgetting Sexton was scoring at 25 ppg in 2021. With the emergence of DG and Mobley, he'll get fewer shots, but I still expect 20 ppg from him at least. He's a clutch shooter too, especially when they can't double-team him with Mobley, and DG, and Allen around him. He'll solve our need for outside shooting and half-court offense.
2. Before Rubio, Mobley, Markkanen, and Allen got injured, I had us penciled in for 4th seed in the East. I think that's still a reasonable goal for 2023. That'd give us home court for the first round and a good chance at the second round.
3. With trades, I'm always nervous about breaking what we have. Our espirit de corps was excellent even with the injuries. I don't want to lose Sexton, DG, Mark, Allen, or Mobley. Everyone else can be traded, IMO. However Love, Cedi, and Rubio had really good chemistry off the bench and I would take that in mind when considering trades.
4. LeVert is in a wait-and-see situation. He never got a complete tryout while healthy. I have hopes he can be a volume scorer and bench offense.
