Well since we are well on our way to a top five pick again what our our biggest needs and what players can fill those roles.
1. Big Time Scorer
2. Young PG successor
3. Back up big man
Guys I like to fill the role
1. Terrance Jones
2. Kyrie Irving
3. ? (FA maybe)
This Terrance Jones has caught my eye. We have a hole at the SF that DJ and TO just can't seem to fill (both bench guys). I think DJ will be a solid energy bench player but never that star SF that we need. Harris has been solid and still has a few more years left of good play (his health has been good so far, knock on wood). Unless Kyrie is a can't miss superstar (not sure yet) I am leaning towards supporting Jones as my top selection.
From what I've seen Jones has a killer instinct and can score multiple ways. He can shoot, drive, and post. He is solid on D and rebounds very well. Since Lopez isn't a great rebounder we need a good one at the 3 which Jones is at his size 6'8". His attitude is what I really like, he plays with a fire that we all wish Lopez could find.
A front court rotation of Jones/Favors/Lopez would be nice for the future.
Sullinger looks like a beast but it's a area of least importance for us unless Favors grows into a C and we trade Lopez.

^^ Didn't see that one on the first page should have that one stickied then and lock this one. It has to be done since the draft and Favors development are about all we have to look forward to.

It sucks Irving is injured, but at least it will lower his stock.
