Do we go for it? If we're able to shed some of our garbage off the bench id love to have either of them.

Delfino would be nice because of his shooting, I don't really want Brooks.

Yes to Delfino, if he can be had cheaply, but other free agent's should be priorities first.

Delfino doesn't make too much sense with who we got at #8 and the fact we're looking to add a better starter via FA.

Brooks makes sense if Bynum is gone and we're not able to land a better starter or backup but only at a bargain price.

Delfino plays the 3 while KCP plays the 2, he would mostly backup our starters anyway

Delfino's a good player. I've always liked him. He knows how to play and how to win. I've no problem if we add him as an experienced rotation quality player.

Brooks, I'm not so sure about him. He can play, but I'd prefer better defensive players.

Delfino can certainly play SG and SF which is great... But not sure of his ability to defend guys like Lebron, Melo, Durant, etc at the SF spot.

I do like Delfino but the fact that we just kept Stuckey, drafted at SG, and have a SF starter likely coming in FA makes Delfino a no for me.

Adding Delfino would pretty much push either Kentavious, Stuckey, or Singler out of our rotation IMO.

I wouldn't be too upset with a KCP/Iggy/Middleton/Delfino rotation to be honest, I think Delfino is better than Singler and Stuck

I would drop stuckey for Delfino as well but since Joe D just decided to keep stuck for $8.5 million next year it doesn't make sense to sign Delfino for $3 or $4 million and bench Stuckey for him.
