Certainly not Holiday. For a defensive player, his defensive numbers look pretty bleak to me. Johnson is just better as a flyer. I hope none of these guys are needed.
He has been a good defender before. I know your defensive metrics can be supressed playing for a bad defensive teams, not to mention playing for a losing team often has vet type players going through the motions, vs playing for a potential contender, can re-energise guys (I mean see the difference in McGee just from getting Kyrie on board). If he's the guy we get, I guess you hope that could take place and he reverts to how he was performing when he was on the Pacers two seasons back.
