Richaun Holmes - all he contributes is a contract for trading

[cow]

I think Holmes will have a bounce back year, but I'd rather have him on the second unit. I'm still in the camp that says we should start Lively as he and Maxi are the only defenders that can alter shots and Lively will certainly be the best at that job in a helping role rather than 1-on-1 defense. You need a plus or, -gasp-, neutral defender to start alongside Luka and Kyrie. I just don't think Holmes is that. I think our starting rotation will be some combination of Powell (quickness), Maxi (quickness, some shot blocking), and hopefully Lively (size and shot blocking).
