I'm not sure about moving Bass just yet. Allen is bigger but not near as athletic. I was hoping that Bass could become another K. Martin with Kidd running the show now. Hopefully that will come to fruition soon or at least by the playoffs.

I understand your point about Wright but it would be nice to see what he has incase we need him in the playoffs for guys like Kobe, TMac, Ginobli, or others. It would also be nice to see if he has a long term future with this team as our answer to the starting SG.
I doubt very seriously that George will be on this team next season. Don't forget about R.Terry as well.


Another broken leg or disappearance in Finals??
But let's be real, you can't teach size.

Wright is not a full court player. He's be better in a halfcourt system like Indiana, Houston, NY, Chicago. In College the ball ran through him and unfortunately he's having a hard time adjusting to being 5th fiddle.

You can't teach aggression either. Bass looks to be much more aggressive than Allen.

We are one player away from being a top contender in the West. But
who will that 15th player be? Remember, we must sign a player by
March 1st in order to place that person on the playoff roster. We
can take 13 to the playoffs, but only play 12 at a time.

Who do I think makes the playoff roster?
Kidd, Terry, Josh, Dirk, Damp, Stack, Bass, George, Mags, Barea,
Jones, Juwan, and Allen with Allen being the player left inactive.

At this point Antoine Wright would not make the playoff roster and
would be in street clothes for the playoffs. If he impresses Avery
enough, he could supplant either Eddie Jones or either Juwan or Allen
on the playoff roster.

I sincerely doubt he does. I doubt he gets the opportunity to impress or depress Avery. We're in a playoff hunt and let's face it, playing him is not a priority right now for Avery. Winning is. Wright may just be a name and a face on the roster like Buckner and Hassell before him who comes in only in blowouts or because of extreme foul trouble.
If we could just close games with Luka, Kyrie, Green, Maxi, and Wood that'd be great...
