    I would tell Jeff Luhnow not to trade Brett Phillips and Josh Hader for Carlos Gomez and Mike Fiers.

    The problem with the hypothetical hindisght redrafting is that you get the best players, but still the horrid results.

    It doesn't really work that way....

    BUT IF IT DID!!

    2021:
    2. Alpy (!)
    16. Jalen Johnson
    23. Herb Jones
    24. Santi Aldama or Cam Thomas

    2022:
    3. Jalen Williams
    17. Walker Kessler
    29: Max Christie or Jabari Walker or ??

    2023:
    (Probably just Amen and Cam again)

    Go back to 84.

    1. Trade Sampson to Portland for Clyde and #2 pk.

    2. Trade Clyde to Philly for the #5 pk.

    3. Draft Dream #1, Jordan #2 and Barkley #5.

    The 1st Big 3 goes on to win a record 12 straight yrs!

    Jalen is much older than Jabari. He's a win now player with a lower ceiling. Like....a way lower ceiling. Not saying it'd be like taking Jalen over Paolo or Chet but....I'm not not saying that. Aggressive tweener who's ceiling isn't much higher than it currently is. It's not even close between the two. I find it crazy that anyone would take Williams over Jabari.

    Trade up to the #1 pick and draft Jalen Green at 1, then use Sengun's pick to draft a defensive big and use Christopher and Garuba's pick on someone else.

    I still think Jalen Green is a future star, I'll decide after the next game if he is a bust or not...
