I fully expect Hardaway to not be on our roster next year. Although if I don't find a clean upgrade at a position of need, I would be fine bringing him back. With the expectation we found a defensive focused center via another avenue.
While his role wouldn't be huge, we can play the SF minutes behind Josh. While he is not very good on defense, I believe he really worked hard last year on D and was one of the few on the team that did.
I also don't know why Lively can't get 18 minutes a night. I view it as 3 6 minutes runs. Some games he will have 3 fouls in 2 minutes. That is when Powell will fit in. Can they find someone who can play 20 minutes effectively? I figure for big games we close the last 6 minutes with Maxi and Grant as the front court. I expect a bumpy ride from Lively, but I think he will play this amount. But I am fine with making him earn his minutes.
edit- Shoot--I forgot Seth's minutes. Will need to think more.
