It really makes for some interesting lineups. Bring in Martell Webster as another 3 point shooter to add to the floor spacing.

? Vasquez/Rivers
Gordon
Webster/?/Ryan Anderson
Davis/Ryan Anderson/Smith
Gobert/Lopez/Smith

(Lopez would almost certainly start.)

That brings up a lot of roster possibilities. Having Gordon run Point for a stretch with Webster and Anderson floor spacing and Gobert and Davis in the middle, rolling to the basket. Gobert and Davis is a really intriguing pair to me, even more so than Noel, because it looks like Gobert will be able to put on weight...I'm not sure Noel can.

Am I the only crazy bastard that says just roll with Rivers at PG? That's where you envisioned him. Just go with it, if he fails he fails.

No. Which is why I dont think we mess w a PG in the draft, especially since we have GV.

Rivers at PG is the kind of move this team needs to pan out very badly so we can continue to add guys at other positions

I think this plays out 1 of 2 ways. Either he takes the starting job from Vasquez and Vasquez becomes our 3rd guard, or he doesn't and you have to choose by the deadline which guard you want coming off the bench in the future. I don't think just handing him the job would be good unless you're already planning to trade Vasquez.
