As Miami rounds this roster out, Steve, not gonna ask you to give names unless you want to, but, like, what types of players would you like to see them target to fill this roster out?
I mean, I think off the top of my head, what do you think?
This is your bag.
My bag.
Like I alluded to earlier, like I, I want some move- I want shooters that can screen for him.
Because you go back to the Milwaukee days, Giannis inverted actions with Pat Connaughton, more recently Giannis with A.J.
Green.
You want guys that can spread the floor but are also willing to lay the lumber so Giannis can get downhill to complicate defenses there.
So, like, I think in terms of the shooters, you want guys that can ghost out but are also are willing to hit people.
From there, I think Davion is going to be there because of the defense and the drives are gonna be important.
It would be nice if they are able to land a guard with some pull-up equity to unlock, the further unlock Bam or Giannis as screeners.
Which I'll quickly say, we talked about Giannis needing to be more consistently engaged defensively.
I think that is fair.
The screening is also just gonna have to ramp up for him in a way that it just has not in the past few seasons.
He does not need to turn into a Brook Lopez, but it does have to be better than what it is to unlock some of the inverted stuff or just the more traditional pick and rolls.
But either way, some kind of pull-up artist to kind of unlock him in that way.
so that's probably where I start
