Does Aldridge have anything left in the tank? Can he still provide any rim protection? Is he a skipped heartbeat away from retirement?
Was Harrell a short term curiosity with LACs? (when he won 6MOY) Does he bring some attitude that could help?
Isaiah Thomas was an All Star, but has bounced around a LOT since. At 33, does he have anything left to offer other than veteran wisdom?
Is Shroeder enough of a creator to help out with the PG rotation?
Or are these a bunch of "Rodmans" looking for one last payday?
We have one roster spot and a glaring hole at 3rd playmaker, so I don't think we can afford to look at any of these guys if they can't pass the ball. Schroder is apparently a locker room cancer and Thomas is washed. We might be hoping to get involved as a 3rd of 4th party in one of the big trades to get that player, or to go after buy out market after everything settles down. I would not be surprised if we end up with Kemba Walker on a vet min after he gets bought out. I would have greatly preferred Dragic.
