Let me show you what I envision as our team. From the Draft, we grab Westbrook at #9, McGee at #15 and Bill Walker at #38. The team, post Crash/Barbosa trade:
PG-Felton / Westbrook / Barbosa
SG-Barbosa / Westbrook / Carroll/ Walker
SF- J-Rich / Dudley/Ammo/Walker
PF - McGee / May / Davidson
C - Okafor / Nazr / Hollins
That is 14 players, and some really quality depth. 3 men capable of handling the PG if injury/foul trouble. Our defensive presence is increased significantly on perimeter with Westbrook and on the interior with McGee. Bill Walker can be the sleeper of the draft if his knees hold up. **If McGee is gone, Kosta Koufous would be solid at #15 and he does play solid defense as well.
I like it. This team can win. I do understand the arguments against it and respect them. But for my money, this team would be solid top to bottom, inside and out.
See, I just think that a starting line up of Felts, Barbosa, Swish and McGee would get torched.
P.S. I think that Walker would be a great replacement for Crash - but he would still be fighting for mins behind Swish, Dude and Ammo at the 3. I think he's a late 1st round pick any ways and will be gone by #38.
Guys who would be there at #38 and have "Crash" type games are Davon Jefferson and a sleeper - who I like a lot - Othella Hunter.
Will Daniels fits that mold too. That is one I've seen on mocks falling to us with our 2nd also.
