John Collins...Our Third Star

[Scott41theMavs]

Is there a world where a Portis/Holmes tandem is better than a Collins/KP one taking salary out of the equation? I know what a few will say to that, just wonder about those who have some hope in KP. If you add in the salary you think both tandems will come out of FA with, is the difference made up with the money you can spend elsewhere?

I would rather have Portis/Holmes - but not in terms of "taking money out of the equation." The $35 mil those two would likely cost frees up about $25 mil on the savings. And I think those two have a lot more "dog" in them.
