Is a player of his ability content being a sixth man for a couple of years, in his prime? Not that I have heard him complain and he seems like a team-player. Wonder if we could get a 1st from an eastern conference non-contender who has not traded their first rounders. Or any first in any year really that could help us move up in subsequent drafts, add to a trade, and reduce the tax burden.
It is interesting. I expect Dinwiddie will be back. It is just tough to swallow we have 5 bench guys making over 10 million. With Din, THJ and Bertans making real big #'s. I think here will be trouble getting off any at this time. Hardaway being the easiest but maybe not as he is coming off injury. Maybe at the trade deadline or next offseason, but we may need to swallow that bullet for now. I can see a vision where it looks really good and the bench offense looks really good with Din and Hardaway leading the charge. At the same time I can see it look clunky and leads to issues with playing time.
