And this roster is a LOOONNNNGGGG ways away from being competitive. 2 years is probably the absolute minimum.

Vasquez is certainly serviceable. A very good backup or average starter who excels as a pass-first PG so a team could really want him for fit reasons. Patterson is young, cheap, and while average or below average as a PF, he brings that youth, a cheap contract, a jumper and a good attitude. Salmons is a wildcard. If he plays well in Toronto there could be interest, since he's one of those guys that always tends to play better after getting traded. Hayes is probably the most useless and undesirable because his contract is fairly big for a limited F/C with poor height.
Now those guys may need to be packaged as well, but as smaller pieces that might be more useful, it may give you more opportunity to make changes while hanging on to the pieces you really want. Getting CV and Stuckey would be the Utah route (Jefferson/Biedrins)...The obvious tank route of "we don't care if guys on our roster have little-to-no on-court value and nobody else wants them because we're trying to suck as much as possible."

17 games? He's traded away two contracts in 6 months. He said they'd spend 45 days to evaluate the roster to start this season. Then they traded Gay after 40 days. So I guess you're right on that one - clearly he was in a bit of a rush to dump Rudy Gay. Shoulda waited the extra 5 days."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

SG - Love DeMar, but he is a deeply flawed player. Great that he's shooting better but the rest of the numbers across the board are weak. Most importantly unless you have an elite level SF which is rare, you absolutely MUST have a SG that can handle the ball and create. If you don't it's way too easy to force the ball out of Lowry's hands and your ofense is dead at that point.
PF - We need someone worthy of being a starter at that position
SF - If DeMar is the future at SG, then you absolutely have to have an elite level SF whom can create and handle the ball

And yes, the team is very broke which is why we should be trying to fix the parts that are broken, not the parts that are working.

1. What is the right price for you to re-sign Lowry?
2. What price do you expect Lowry to actually be willing to accept (from any team including the Raps)?Heir, Prince of Cambridge
