I was talking with my friend today about what the C's are going to look like next year, operating on the assumption that they make a max signing, preferably Hayward but maybe Griffin or Millsap (or a PG trade). Lets say any max signing or George trade unloads one of AB/Smart and Jae Crowder. Consider the follwing possible scenario, where they sign Hayward and Paul George. The starting lineup is something like:
IT, Smart, Hayward, George, Horford.
That is a top echelon starting lineup. Let us consider the bench:
Rozier, Brown, Tatum, Yabusele, Zizic.
There are some other second rounders in the mix, Nader inclusive. But supposedly all five of those guys will want or need minutes. That bench is maybe a good NCAA team. How in the hell are they going to work this out? The starting lineup says gunning for the Eastern Conference, the bench says tanking for a draft pick/ developing youngsters. Has there ever been a team with this kind of disparity?
What the hell is going on here?
