15 Man Roster Complete, this is how it looks

why do we have caboclo on the roster, is he not ready for next year?

To make sure he grows within the team, not aside from it.

Or if he was cheaper...

He will be next year.

I like the ChuckWagon, only that I feel we could find an upgrade at the same pay grade. I think the "hate" may have stemmed from his offensive limitations but, with Vasquez, Williams, and (a healthy) Patterson; it will be less incumbent on Hayes to score so fans can be more appreciative of his passing, rebounding & defense. Again, I'm afraid he's just too undersized. If Nogueira were ready to play back up C, I'd have no problem keeping Hayes on as a 3rd stringer.

With Landry and Hayes expiring at the end of this year Ujiri will have an opportunity to bring in a rental with out losing all that much (read 'anything') great position to be in at the trade deadline if there's an injury or severe need that comes up (lack of legit back up C)

He was great with Patterson: +3.3 in 26 games. The guys who came from the Kings always seemed to play well together, which shows that the Kings coach knew what he was doing. Hayes also played well with Valanciunas, with +2.5 in 17 games. But he did not work so well with Johnson: -0.3 in 25 games, and was terrible with Hansbrough, -2.7 in 13 games. Valanciunas, incidentally, worked best with Vasquez: +2.9 in 57 games.

He does like that "drive & kick", doesnt he? When Vasquez, Patterson & Nogueira are on the floor together ; I expect to see a lot of PnR, PnP & DnK.

People always remember the bad pairings. How when he was with Amir or 2Pat?

Chuck was our best plus minus guy in the playoffs, I know that much.

Chuck is rock solid. He's great for 10-15 minutes a game, against specific matchups. My problem wasn't with him - but with Casey over using him.

I've always liked his d, and not to take anything away from chuck but playing d on amare hasn't been too hard as of late. :P

Also take in that the first offensive highlight is a single free throw. One. Meaning he most likely missed the other hahaha

Ppl always remember the bad pairings. How when he was with Amir or 2pat. I bet number would that we were a better team when Chuckwagon was on the floor.

Chuck and JV played together too. But, when Casey was going guard happy I remember NDC, Lowry, GV, Chuck and someone on the floor together. It was near the end of the season but it definitely happened. Also remember Novak and Hayes in when the only thing we needed was a defensive rebound on a free throw. Hands was in on some FT too.

Good passer, screener and doesn't need the ball. When he is useful, against low-post bigs, he is very useful. Casey pairing him with Hands or Novak was a head scratcher

Chuck Hayes gets too much hate on this forum. He helped us win a lot games last year.
