The best option imo is still to offer as much as possible to Derozan/Fournier or trade Lopez for a PG and sign a center.
Fournier is restricted, he's not available. You'd honestly max out Derozan after his horrific playoff performances?
Erm....Yes?
Beggars simply can't be choosers. The fact that the likes of Bazemore, Evan Turner, or Seth Curry are being considered for money like 9M that would bring minimal impact to our roster is ridicule. Derozan brings the high quality offense our back court is clearly lacking. Bazemore is a decent role player coming off the bench, Derozan is an allstar about to enter his prime.
What is the point in having a max player who stinks every playoffs?
Whats the point of fielding the same mediocre back court to not make the playoffs?
As someone said, to be successful in the regular season of the NBA, a back court is vital, but to be successful in the playoffs that where our front court comes in. We should stop lying to ourselves that the perfect player will come around one day or that signing bench players and giving them a bigger role will fix our issues, or that Grant will magically turn into Chris Paul in one summer. Lets be realistic in our approach and talk about how we are going to actually be successful in the regular season before we start talking about the playoffs.
Grant
Derozan
Melo
KP
Lopez
Sessions/Augistine/Calderon
Afflalo
Dwill
KQ
Willy
Wroten
Sasha(vet min)
Atkins/Thanasis/LT/Labeyrie
Not perfect, but our team would be continuing to move in a fairly good direction.
