I think guys like EG and Ryno are locks to stay for now.

Reke is interesting. You would think he could fit on a team like this but he doesn't move without the ball that much, seemed to revel in slow pace, etc.

And I don't get Asik's fit here. People will bring up Bogut but Bogut can actually catch a ball. Maybe that works but we go lots of small ball with AD at Center.

Please NO!!!

Unless he learns to play the 3.

Power forwards and Centers will always destroy him in the post

He needs to be traded to give us a true 3, and then we need Tristan Thompson lol

If not Tristian, anyone who can guard 4 and 5, and can actually jump and rebound

I feel sure that one good thing about this upcoming year is that I won't have to listen to Joel Myers constantly worrying that Reke won't get the ball into the frontcourt in 8 seconds.

And pass.

But he is always the last option on offense- that even he is skilled just makes the Warriors the Warriors. He is often setting hard screens and doing the dirty work down low. And he is the anchor on defense. He only played about 25MPG in both the playoffs and regular season. Asik can approximate these skills.

I also think looking at Davis as a turbocharged Draymond Green is interesting when talking about Bogut/Asik. Will be interesting to see how much they do put Davis at the 5. Regular season, I don't think it needs to happen often, but it will be necessary in the playoffs.
