its the dog days of summer so kinda stretching on topics here but there has been a lot of talk about which need we should focus on with our last spot so figured try to get it all on 1 thread, let's see where raps fan heads are at including options at each spot...
current roster (14)
PG- Lowry, Vasquez
SG- Derozan, Williams
SF- Ross, J. Johnson, Fields, Caboclo
PF- A. Johnson, Patterson, Hansbrough
C- Valanciunas, Hayes, Nogueira
3rd Guard- we have serious talent in the backcourt so if we go with the 3rd PG option it would have to be someone willing to accept that role on a min contract (under $1mil) that just looking to break into/stay in the league
options- no idea whose available in the 3rd string range but i'm still sticking with Myck Kabongo just for the good story and the fact he'll be dirt cheap project, didn't impress in SL but he showed good defence, a quick first step, aggressive drives to the rim and always looked for teammates...and it's irrelevant cause he's get no playing time outside garbage minutes.
Backup Centre- going into the season with Hansbrough, Hayes & Bebe as the options behind JV makes me real nervous...of the 3 i'd give the minutes to Hansbrough but I'd say this is a real concern. Unfortunately Hayes is a bad player that makes $6 mil and is likely untradeable right now so at most we're talking about $2.5mil range to spend here.
options- i'd say just 2...the ultra talented head case Andray Blatche or the high risk, high reward Emeka Okafor (if he's willing to sign for such a massive pay cut)
I think we should go with a Backup Center and either Okafor or Blatche makes us better for the $2.5mil we have left to spend..another option is just to keep Daniels on the roster though it makes no sense as the 5th SF
