Harris is ranked 10th for SG's this upcoming season...seems about right.

That's one opinion. Some have ranked him higher, some have ranked him lower - it all depends on which advanced metrics someone looks at. An argument could be made that he was better than those this one ranks higher, at least a few of them. Looking at the whole package, there are only 2-4 of those I'd even consider trading Harris for - even trade.

Well when you're talking trade you take into consideration age, contract..etc...things not taken into account when simply ranking players at a certain position for one season. I'd say those top 6 are clearly better than Harris. Booker vs Harris is interesting, hard to say if I'd rather have Booker than Harris....but I'd def rather have Booker than Mudiay (Drafted 8 spots higher) at this point.

We are reminded of how terrible SG depth is in general

Well, Booker's a little flashier (in a good way) but I like Harris' defense better. Booker has a much higher usage rate and is more of a #1 or #2 option type and Harris is more of a #3 or #4 type. It may be the homer in me, but I think I prefer Harris, especially for the difference on defense - he just seems like a better fit for the team the Nuggets are building. On the other hand, I'd love to take Booker too. :wink:
