That's hardly even snark!I like our guard rotation. We have Payne and Carter as our primary backup PG and SG respectively. They showed they could do an impressive job during the bubble, and they complement each other well. And we brought in some depth and shooting in Moore and Galloway. Looks pretty good to me. We don't have a third "stud" guard who could arguably slide in as a starter or heavy minutes guy, but I don't know that I'd want to spend lots of resources on a player like that, anyway. Our bench guys know they're bench guys and are okay with that. Bringing in a guy like Dinwiddie might not work because he'd rightfully want more minutes and a larger role than we could consistently give him.Vladimir_Taltos wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 5:08 pmSigh...I like much of where we are after seeing the dust settle, but I still feel like we've left ourselves weak if nothing else at a 3rd guard position...any play that might land us Dinwiddie? I think him as the 3rd in the rotation as a backup to Chris/Booker would make a lot of sense...and really add some strength to our lineup. Just kicking tires...

My point...Dinwiddie would do a nice job of backing things up here...that's why I was asking. To me it would boil down to what would it take to get him and is the price rational...Mori Chu wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 5:56 pmI like our guard rotation.

The main flaw is what'll we do if Paul goes down for his customary 10-15 game injury of the season? Start Payne at PG? That might be a little rough.
Capwise? Ayton would do the trick, or Bridges+CJ+Nader.Vladimir_Taltos wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 6:23 pmMy point...Dinwiddie would do a nice job of backing things up here...that's why I was asking.
