But also wait for the right deal whereas other teams are more desperate. Until the TDL we have an opportunity to showcase our guys and increase their value. Plus we get a good look at Wood before we make our move. If nothing is out there that makes us better or if we like our team and overachieve again we can easily bring back everyone(so long as we don’t add to future cap).
The only thing that’s missing is Kemba. I’d rather wait for someone like that than adding Schroeder
We really could use Goran Dragic. Makes me wonder why he really said no. It’s puzzling when he would be perfect for the 15th spot
My thoughts on the 15th man changes almost daily. The minutes crunch is real and I also hope to have minutes for Green as this is a big year for him. On the other hand, a 2 week absence for Dinwiddie or Luka (lord help us) has a chance to really put us behind the 8 ball where we are playing catch up all year long with the roster currently as is. If Dinnwiddie missed games, it even put greater weight on Luka's shoulders...and that may not be a great idea in November/December of the season. In addition, with the games Luka is playing in the European championship it may be a good idea to gently ease him into the season the first few weeks of the year.
I am not sure where Shroeder will be pick. I read PHX has the MLE still. That could be a good spot considering Chris Paul's age and their need for good backup pg minutes. The Lakers could be interesting as well if they moved off Westbrook. The Lakers could at least have the carrot of cap room next year that might give Schroeder some incentive.
