PG: Augustine or Kemba??

SG: Henderson or Gordon

PF: Biz or TT

C: Biz or Mullens or Diop

my prediction:

PG: Kemba - Augustine

SG: Hendo - Gordon

SF: MKG - Williams

PF: Biz - TT - Brown

C: Mullens - Biz - Diop

---------------------------

moving forward, we need to sign n trade DJ Augustine and get (A) backup PG with size or (B) another BIG whether it be Center or PF.. then we need to address whichever didnt get done in the FA market

FA PGs:

Raymond Felton, Kirk Hinrich, Jason Kidd, Andre Miller, Chauncey Billups, Jason Terry, Leandro Barbosa, Goran Dragic, Randy Foye, Jonny Flynn, Jannero Pargo, Delonte West

FA PFs:

Brandon Bass, Kris Humphries, Kenyon Martin, Carl Landry, Antawn Jamison, Jordan Hill, Louis Amundson, Reggie Evans

FA Centers:

Chris Kaman, Kwame Brown, Nazr Mohammed, Hasheem Thabeet, Mehmet Okur, Ben Wallace, Greg Oden, Ryan Hollins

I think if we take a cheap flier on Foye, Thabeet and Antawn Jamison- we would have some more young pieces that stay with the youth movement but a veteran with leadership that could realy help mentor the young guys on the squad.

and the one move it think is a no-brainer is

Blair would be an amazing addition to our squad defensively..

so doing some combination of these "out-there" moves that net a backup PG and PF/C would lock us in for a much more exciting season

Would love to see Dunlap implement two-guard sets with Gordon at the 1, Hendo at the 2, Reggie at the 3, White at the 4, and Mully at the 5.

That would be our best floor next season imho.

MKG would definitely benefit in this rotation as well.

that's what id believe to be our most effective small ball/scoring floor when Dunlap makes his rotations.

Or can you not read?

That would be the worst Line-up we could put on the floor.

Not only are none of the younger players we are depending on and trying to develop getting starter minutes.

You also got player out of position.

Gordon is not a PG.

Williams isn't a good small forward.

White might not be on the team and still shouldn't be getting starters minutes.

Mulley is best coming off the bench not fouling out in the 1st 6 minutes because he can't check other centers.

Dunlap wants to run a stretch the floor offense. Who else could we feasibly do that that with?

Carrol? Higgins? Bismack? Diop?

He also wants to play defense and you only have 1 defender on the floor. Not to mention you need a PG to run the team and a again you don't have a PG on the floor with this line-up.

lol ok luke, i still dont think you know the difference between a starting line-up and a situational rotation is.

its like talking to a child.

I don't think you know what your talking about. You have a starting line up full of situational players. And again you don't have a PG on the floor. Do you not see this?

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.

      Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
