Dell could pull something crazy at the deadline.

If you told me in november what our roster would be in April,I would've had a pretty hard time believing you.

We're good at the 1/2(obviously)4/5. It's not easy being above average at all 5 AND have solid depth.

With AD getting his extension(and probably another max guy) that's the time to draft guys.

You'll have them on rookie deals through most of ADs contract.

Can't argue with that. I think I'm coming off more pessimistic than intended.

not to start anything, but we are no better at the 5 than we are at the 3.
Not saying we aren't good, but don't compare what Asik does for us to what Jrue or even EG/Reke does.

Well I included Ajinca too if that helps. Between him and Asik it's at least competent or slightly above average(and AD will play a bit there).

We had him last year for cheaper and have him up, not sure why they want to pay him more to return...

Because last year we weren't interested in Gee the player but Gee the voidable contract.

We are a lot better at the 5 than we are at the 3...to say otherwise is just wrong.

Asik is a solid starting C, and while I love what Pondexter did last season, he doesn't really have the consistency/track record as a good player that Asik does.

We're rolling out two backup 3's, a backup PF, and a PG/SG as our SF platoon....and while I like the group, and what we've done in our situation, SF is our hole/weakest position by far.

...not to mention AD will play some C so ya, we are good there

This feels a lot like a Salmons/Stiemsma signing
It feels that way because it is that way

I guess we just had zero other options going forward. He's depth though. Always need depth.

I just don't see Gee getting any minutes on this team, hence the signing being equal to Salmons. Both will likely be non scale movers.

How can anyone "love" a signing like this?

He's a body to fill a chair on the bench
