The projected starting 5 at the moment is already looking awesome to watch for me. But I am just wondering who would we replace with Porter Jr for example? Someone has to be the 6th man...
If Porter JR is signed, Levert comes off the bench since you can't offer Porter this much money to play out of position..
D'Lo/Lin/Porter/ ??/Mozgov
Not a fan of RHJ at the 4, so they'd need to sign someone there as well...or simply go with booker there.
I cant see anyway Caris Sits. he is our best 2 way player. RHJ, Lin, or Dlo i think go to the bench if we get porter
Caris may eventually be your best 2-way player in the future, but this statement can not be said based on what we saw last year...But than again, I'm a bit less high on Caris than everybody else...
I believe Caris will eventually be a legit NBA starter but I don't think he's a star-potential guy like D'Angelo Russell...I view his potential-ceilling as a Kerry Kittles type in a couple years and this will be fine enough, IMO...i know some of you long time Brooklyn fan expect much more which is perfectly understandable, but I don't see it, not based on last year.
But I agree that if this year is another "full year development" year, than it makes sense to start Caris no matter what...His development into a legit player as quickly as possible may indeed be more important than winning a bit more game this year to show improvement from last year terrible W-L record.
