Ish Galloway SJ Leuer Boban are bench guys.
Maybe SJ makes a leap this year?
Kennard and Ellenson are pretty unknown right now.

I envision Tobias starting at SF and then sliding over to PF to allow SJ roughly 30 minutes per game off the bench.

Yeah, I don't disagree with that but at the same time the Pistons have the perfect opportunity to really see what they have in Johnson. There isn't a better time so they might as well roll with him for ~30 minutes a night for a while. If he flops, oh well go after a forward then. If not great, they're sitting nicely at the three and four.
I wouldn't make a move right now unless something really obvious presents itself like I said before. At this point in the summer that's not likely to happen, but who knows what the eventual Kyrie could do for a team or three.

Our season really does have a lot of "if's". The biggest one is if SJ can have a breakthrough year. We need him to really shine

Not really sure I understand what you just said or what you are trying to say.
If your saying Bradley is a starter and op left him off the list, well op put him on the list.
If your saying Bradley is a starting PF well then.. No
If your drunk posting then nevermind carry on
So you guys are saying we need a versitle Defensive Foward like a Rodman, Pippen
I added the Defensive part
whitehops wrote:i think a more accurate statement would be that we need a starting/proven SF. harris has the versatility to play both the 3 and 4 and will play whatever position gets the best forward on the court with him, but he's better at the 4. leuer is a solid backup 4 if he can play close to the way he did to start last year and tolliver is solid as a third string PF. it's the 3 where we could potentially be very weak.
if we hypothetically started harris at the 3 and leuer at the 4, then we'd be so vulnerable to the talented wing players in the league. lebron, paul george, durant, giannis, etc. bradley will likely guard the better opposing guard but he can't defend the players i mentioned for the whole game. harris and leuer would get absolutely roasted, which leaves SJ to guard those guys for heavy minutes.
i wouldn't be surprised if SJ took morris' minutes and defensive role for the most part. how he does offensively is still be seen but it would be a lot more comforting going into the season with a SF capable of doing what morris provided. SJ could do that, but he would have to take a massive leap from what he showed us last year.

Jon, Tolliver, Galloway and Ish the next group
Bobo, Henry & Luke fight for minutes.

I think this gives us the best chance. Leuer and Tolliver can back Harris up depending on match ups
