Well. Wow I guess. I've been *****ing about Pax doing nothing for so
long I can hardly complain about this deal so I guess I feel a bit
like I did after Kukoc was traded. Guardedly optimistic.
Im not sure this makes the team a whole lot better though. Suddenly
the frontcourt is thin. I guess Noah will start and Gray will see
more minutes which is fine but I doubt we'll see a HUGE improvement
in production there. Long term it's addition by subtraction though
and finding someone to take Wallace's contract is a major
accomplishment.
Im curious what this means for Thomas. Gooden is fine but not a
stud. Thomas might be good but is currently retarded so does he get
more minutes or does he sit more?? Is this an op****tunity for him
or an admission by the team that he's realllly far off??
Larry Hughes is kind of confusing as well. I don't see any reason to
play Thabo less and long term he gives them no insurance should they
not sign Gordon or Deng obviously so how does he fit going forward??
He's better than Duhon but most of us are better than Duhon too so
thats not saying much. He is an upgrade but I would've liked this
deal better if they could've upgraded the guards without adding
another body to the mix.
