Here’s the issue… Booker is our Nance. He’s going to fetch the best return of any of them and that’s why he’s also got to go. There is no rebuilding around Booker that leads us anywhere but play-in game status and that is pointless, IMO.
IMO, James Jones ascribes to the Miami philosophy in always trying to contend. A complete rebuild can last a decade or longer and there is no guarantee we won't be wandering in the desert for another 40 years.
I'd try to reload with Booker as he is young enough to see if we can get the right supporting cast around him similar to our finals run.
I do agree, that Booker can't be a sole #1 on a true title contender, but he could be part of a 2004 Detroit Pistons type team. This team has those types of talented players, but the pieces don't fit as well and we lack to toughness.
