Again great elaborated stuff Dan! That is very much the idea behind my post in the John Collins thread. Problem I think is MC won’t abandon the star seeking offseasons. If they went full bore out of the gate to get 3-5 of some of the less than stars that are in this FA crop, this team can be upgraded tremendously with more of a mix between young and old players. I made a list myself of about 15 players that I would love to see that same 3-5 on this team.
I also like the idea of scrapping pretty much the whole big rotation and getting 3 that are THE rotation, with 3 that are ready for low energy/injury nights.
The team is in a position to offer roles and minutes to anyone depending on the direction Kidd/Nico wants to go with the on court play. We also can’t assume anything as far as positions/minutes for any player on this team.
Even Luka with regard to position, Kidd just spent time with the player who is closest in ability to Luka in LeBron. LeBron is not put in the game as a PG.
We can’t assume KP is going to be the C if he is kept.
This is why I am so far into wait and see with this cause at this point, RC-ball is gone. We’re starting a new era of Kidd-ball. Throw everything out the window as far as assumptions. Now, it could turn out that everything stays the same as far as that, but we can’t assume they will.
We also can’t assume changes in philosophy like KP not being a C are automatically bad. Wait and see, however, let’s continue talking about it with fresh perspective!
