Brighter Futre: Solomon Jones or Randolph Morris?

Both make roughly 800K per year. Who would you prefer at the end of your bench? New York may possibly be willing to move Randolph for someone else and we can bring Randolph Morris back home to groom.

This is a very interesting poll.

I'm a big Solo fan. He's always active and enthusiastic on and off the floor. If he can develop his game a little he can be the ideal role player for us. But he has a long way to go as he is so raw.

I would take Morris over him. He has more basketball skill and I think he would flourish being back in ATL and playing with his AAU teammate Josh Smith.

Hmmm, Morris has more weight on his frame to play C, but effort has always been a question mark with him. He's had no PT at the pro level, so no resume to judge. Solomon doesn't have that question, but basketball IQ (playing without fouling) has been his question. He hasn't got as many minutes this year to show where he's heading.

Think I'll stick with Solomon, but I still ask for coaching changes. Our big guy development was never strong, but seems to have flatlined under Alton Lister.

I guess I'd be indifferent as far as on-court stuff goes. Off-court though, we have kept away from problem-creators and I'd prefer to keep it that way. Its not like either one would be getting solid minutes.

I'll stick with Solo.
