Would Murray/Dunn/Hield and Barnes be better than Ryno and Gordon?

Seems like Barnes would be able to do everything Ryno did and not be a liabilty on defense and one of the rooks would be a solid addition off the bench. Plus they can develop along with AD and not take up 15 Million a year to play 30 games a season.

Looks to me at worst case we would be as good or better simply by drafing Hield/Murray/Dunn and Trying to sign Barnes.

Holiday/Cole
Evans/Rookie
Barnes/QPon
AD/Cunningham
Asik/Ajinca

I would be happy with that lineup. My only wish would be to get rid of Asik and ridiculous contract.

Not a very high standard.

That lineup is pretty much 2nd worst case scenario for me this off-season outside of trading our pick for another "young vet"

despite his horrific finals I think someone is still going to pay Barnes way too much, I just hope that it isn't us

If you could somehow find a way to pay Barnes like a fourth option, sure.

Problem is, that while he probably lost his chance to get paid like a high upside second option, I.E. the max, he is probably still going to get paid like a solid second or third option by some team.

So yea, in two years I do think a Barnes/Hield or Dunn combo would be better, the cost is not worth it for Barnes and it would handicap the rest of the team because of that though.

I don't know but we have got to do something at C. Asik is garbage and we still owe him what? 3 more years? Ajinca is a decent back up, but he's not a starter.

I understand getting rid of Asik, but I thought Ridiculous Contract really started showing some promise at the end of the year. Could we not give him one more year?
