Are we looking at a potential decision between keeping Ryno OR EG?

both free agents, EG shot lights out from 3, ryno dropped a bit, ryno more of a volume shooter, does a stretch 4 that shoots a bit less 3% more valuable than a 2 than shoots a bit higher? Doubt we can resign both, are we using this year as a judge to who's more valuable for our future?

All things equal, I'd rather bring back EG. He's a far more well-rounded player and isn't a backup by default.

We'll have to use this year as a judge. Too many questions remaining..

Can EG stay (relatively) healthy again this year? Can he keep up his 3 point shooting (44%) from last year?

Can Ryno stay healthy? Was last years miserable shooting (34%) a fluke?

I think gentry will get us more spot up threes, so if EG keeps knocking those down at a high clip I think we'll keep EG. Other than spot up shooting, all ryno offers is the occasional iso fadeaway which is a very inefficient shot. Theoretically we could keep both with the cap spike, but we'll probably have to pay a premium on them which means we shouldn't want to keep both.

Ryno has trade value, EG may have some later in the season as an expiring. If EG is looking for anywhere near what he made on his last deal I wouldn't even make an offer.

I doubt either of these guys gets moved before the trade deadline, If neither get moved IMO Demps will look elsewhere before rushing to sign either one next summer.

If EG is healthy, I'd rather him back simply because I'd rather spend money on someone who will be on the floor to close games. Also, while his D isn't very good, at least you don't have to hide him.

Stuckey got 3/21, that is right in line with what EG will command.

Adios to both if we can get a max guy, though.

I wouldn't be surprised if neither one of these guys were in the roster after this season.

I agree that neither will be re signed after this year
my guess is that Anderson nets something useful back and Gordon is allowed to walk

Why dump our three point shooters? Golden State keeping is their shooters around. I cant wait to see Ryno in †he new system.
