I can see Dom starting in Lance's spot. that would add scoring to the second unit which could also benefit from some continuity. eventually DG would replace DM on the first unit although at first he might get some time on the second ahead of Green. starting Dom would give our eventual second unit more time to mesh.

Shelvin Mack also just got waived for the 2nd time this season. Is he a better fit than McGuire?

Honestly I'd like to see Mack get more of a shot, however, he's sort of a combo PG/SG coming off the bench, which, when healthy, we will have in Lance Stephenson (once Danny returns.)

Plus, (and I'll admit it's never this cut-and-dry) but Mack got cut for the 2nd time by the Wizards. The Wizards. The Wizards.

Mack has been playing pretty well as a replacement for Wall. I don't think it's about his skill, but they cut him because they anyone with an non-guarenteed contract had to be cut by (monday) I think to remove their salary completely from the payroll.

Mack would be too small for me, to try to fill Sam Young's role. Quite talented though. With that said, the signing of McGuire makes sense, as he adds another big SF while we are waiting for Danny.

Mack is a possible replacement for Ben but if they wanted to do that I think they would have had to have cut Ben the same day they cut Sam. McGuire is a 6'9" defender. Mack is a point guard.

So, when are we going to use McGuire? :D
