I actually prefer Payton on a short-term deal over
Ricky Rubio. Sure, Rubio is the better player right now, but c'mon, where's the upside???
Mack did not receive much playing time at all for Charlotte after the trade deadline, and for that reason he could come at an extreme bargain in our efforts to replace Cory Joseph.
E’Twan Moore might take a 1st round pick to snag from New Orleans. His combo guard skills would be a nice fit though. I just don’t like giving up a 1st for him.
Elf is maybe worth a shot. I think he’d be more of a “platoon” option or maybe even a guy who falls behind Aaron in competition. Brings the defense of a Rubio and gets assists, but not quite a playmaker. Affordable though. His health is risky though, and he’s likely to miss 30 or so games a year. Still need a spot starter capable PG as your 3rd string.
Ellington is a real streaky kind of shooter. I think I’d rather play Doug at SG instead of signing him, and maybe also get some minutes for Sumner. I get it though. Might come for the room exception but might take a lot more. Hard to say. Wouldn’t argue it for sure.
Mack is a vet minimum 3rd string guy. All for it to eat some minutes here and there. Doesn’t really provide any one thing. Doesn’t kill you though. Great option as a vet minimum inactive kind of 3rd string PG. he wouldn’t be replacing Joseph, though. He’d be replacing Sumner’s emergency PG minutes.
