The way I see it is these players are basically what you're looking for when you take back picks. Second rounders are normally irrelevant, so having a player that's been around for a few years is better IMO. Especially in the case of Davis, I believe he can be a serviceable backup.

Whenever we have a log jam at a position, people always say "this guy's gotta go! that guy's gotta go!", but I don't exactly see the reasoning. Is it not better to have multiple players at a position that can do the job well?

I guess the biggest arguments around here lately have been focused on the PF(Davis or Johnson "must be traded" and PG(Calderon "has to go" positions. But now we have a plethora of wings, and a true C(finally!) as well. What are those who say this looking for, other than a STAR wing? And do they actually think we can net one with the players we have on our roster? Or do we need more mediocre players/backups at another position?
I just don't get it sometimes, you need depth in order to be successful unless you have a LeBron or Kobe.
But getting back to the thread, I wouldn't be mad if DeRozan isn't here. I don't trust him and I think he's gonna be somewhat of a chucker in this contract year. Hopefully he changes my mind by becoming more of a complete player.

So hard to predict what will happen.. I'd like to see Bargnani moved, and possibly DeMar if he doesn't improve in his intangibles. I am sure one of Davis/Johnson will be gone - my guess Davis.

What a difference a year makes!
Soft Euro posted a link back to the poll asking RR members to predict wins for 2011-12. That thread had the opening night roster for 2011-12. Looking at that, it got me thinking: What a difference a year makes!
2011-12 opening night roster:
PG: Calderon, Bayless, Carter
SG: DeRozan, Barbosa, Butler
SF: J.Johnson, Forbes, Kleiza
PF: Bargnani, Davis, Amir
C: Gray, Magloire, Alabi
2012-13 opening night roster:
PG: Lowry, Calderon, Lucas
SG: DeRozan, Ross, Anderson
SF: Fields, Kleiza, McGuire
PF: Bargnani, Davis, Acy
C: Valanciunas, Johnson, Gray
From the 2011-12 opening night roster we see 8 new faces. So in the interest of conversation (and hopefully not a mean-spirited one), who's name do you think (or hope!) is missing next year?Tags: None
