I'd hang onto Larkin. His potential exceeds his current trade value. I'm encouraged by the way he played at PG in Summer league and I think he's the perfect player to pair with the deliberate and measured PG play of Calderon. Larkin can change the pace of the game and is a pest. Makes him the perfect contrast. In terms of Smith, he's a headache, but my opinion is he will bring back less in a trade than he has the potential to give you on the floor. IN a more disciplined offensive system, he could really flourish. He's also not coming off injury this year, and on top of that he's got a player option at the end of the season so he's playing for a salary raise. All signs point to a season more like 2012-2013 than 2013-2014. Shumpert, well Phil has been talking him up- and perhaps on purpose. He's very inconsistent lacks confidence on the offensive end. Is he the odd man out? On another note the article says Hardaway is untouchable and doesn't mention Ellington or Brown, whom I imagine are out the door. |

I'm okay with any 1 if not 2 of them being moved.

Larkin cap expense is only a problem if he is not good but even then he could still be cut n stretched.
