We'll be fortunate if either of these signings become more than camp fodder.

probably backs up all 3 frontcourt spots at some point. i'm sure he could get 30+ minutes per night that way.
we were discussing earlier how durant, melo, and kris on the floor at the same time would cause fits.
i don't even want to think about such unrealistic things. but, man. it would be terror for the rest of the league.

that said, willy probably comes over next season and takes over that backup 5 role. but willy probably gets the short end of the rotational stick as a first-year player. KP should have built his body up enough to pick up all the 5 minutes leftover between rolo and willy, which could be as many as 8 if rolo puts in 28 and willy 12. melo and KD could both cap at 36, leaving a full 32 for KP even in that role.

Durant or Melo would come off of the bench for our lord and savior Porzingod.

It isn't happening but if it does, Porzingis will play center. His future is at center, he just needs to add 15 pounds to be able to play there consistently. With his length and mobility, he has the potential to be one of the best rim protecting centers in the league.
Back to potential free agents for us, anyone heard anything about Emeka Okafor? If he's healthy, he would be a solid addition.

Lopez can get 25 mpg and Porzingis can play 23 minutes at center and backup minutes at the 4. But of course that doesn't leave much time for O'quinn and Hernangomez.
