I don't think Davis or Smith's health is an issue

Smith, I'll agree, last year was a freak injury.

Davis, however, had a lot of little injuries before getting shut down. For a tall and slender guy like him, those leg injuries add up. You at least have to be cautious with him.

Lopez, Davis & Smith can all play the 5. And I'd assume we'd still try and add another guy

Not as much money to work with now.

Rivers might suck, but he can't get much worse. I think we can win whether or not he contributes or not

He is very important going forward. We need him to either be Gordon's backup or Jrue's backup to make Grieves more expendable.
