Horford would start at C, but clock a good portion of his minutes at the 4 spot. We have a strong back court and it would probably cost us our depth at the 3 spot (Marvin or Chill is the asset to ship for this big, Zaza won't do it). We'd still have a starting SF and for a change we need to try to fill key reserves less expensively than using a lottery pick on the bench.

Biedrins is going to command a salary that is greater than his contribution. I see him as a very good compliment, but not a guy to build around. My scouting of him is kind of limited because of how he's used. Maybe he ready for a breakout and bigger role, but I wouldn't have enough confidence in that to make a play for him.


This is a much better idea, but the idea of Smith playing the 3 scares the hell out of me.
