but give the reins to somebody who can grow with those guys.

otherwise, 3 yrs from now, which even if everything breaks perfectly is still realistically the absolute earliest that they'd be starting to contend, you're still looking for your pg of the future (neither conley or rose will be a starting caliber player at that point) with fewer avenues to acquire him (no lottery pick, and lavine/lauri/carter already off rookie scale and making big dollars)

just find the guy now, take your lumps, and do a proper rebuild w guys who can develop together. you're gonna take hella L's but don't try to skip steps. imo you have to align the ages of your best guys as much as possible. any 30 yr olds on this team should be backups.
