Thaddeus Young - 2019 Free Agent

If you're willing to settle for those qualities, sign RHJ. He's 7 years younger.

And would be definitely cheaper, to boot.

But RHJ is not great at anything and i don't think he will ever be something.

Yes please. Full MLE. Then give the lower level exception (if that's still a thing) to a veteran SF like DeMarre Carroll. Move Belinelli and Bertans for some cap relief and get to something like this:

White Mills
Murray Forbes Walker
DeRozan Carroll Johnson
Young Gay Samanic
Aldridge Poeltl Eubanks

Could be a locker room issue...

Ideally, I would like a starting 4 with the MLE. Going to be very tough, but Rudy as we saw last year cannot play too many minutes. If SA can sign someone that relegates Rudy to a bench role more permanently then that would be ideal.

So basically, another Rudy would be a good fit; however Thad can’t shoot so he doesn’t do what Rudy does. Mirotic would be something of the ideal get that could slide into that role.

Murray / White / DeRozan / Mirotic / LMA

Mills / Bryn / Lonnie / Rudy / Poeltl

He's a really good defender, which also seems to be Thad's only quality. RHJ is 24, and may or may not develop any further. I can guarantee you, though, that Thad won't be improving at 31.

I agree with the sentiment, which is why I made a case for JaMychal Green yesterday. Mirotic will exceed the MLE.

The only issue (at least to the players in question) would be that it would mean 2 of the 3 of Bertans, Belinelli, Walker, are out of the rotation when the top 9 are all healthy and active.

Either way, Bertans' days are clearly numbered. Long term, they're obviously hoping Samanic can take on his role, but even short term, I get the sense that they'd prefer more of a true four.

I wouldn't call him a really good defender but i can call Thad (who i don't like by the way as i said in previous quotes) a great defender. We're splitting hairs here. They are both not good enough. It depends on the price for both of them.

LockerRoom Issue ))))
Priceless even far far away in Poland

Pacers could afford to lose him having Goga on the team.

But i think he's more of C than a SF, meaning not a 4 with skills on the perimeter. Being off or def.

Someone else with the MLE.
