Re: Let's be real... what do we really need?

hey the point is that we're far from poor at the wing. i don't think that fan would claim they're playing as well as they can either. AP has come on beautifully as the season has gone along, Moon's game is FAR from tapped out, Kapono has TJ back, Delfino is a thoroughbred guard and is how old? Joey a beast and can't get off the bench. Matched with elite point guard play, our 4-man wing rotation is deadly, the best we've had since T-mac, Vince, Christie and Del.

the fact is we're already a very nicely composed team. as this team grows together, they're going to become great. we don't really NEED anything. much like we didn't last year, we don't even NEED a draft pick. usually i'm obsessed with the draft but any pick is going to struggle to find playing time. it's just another asset to be utilized. BC could/should look to trade. he could leave the player in Europe. he could take a flyer on a high potential kid (Batum might fit nicely). so many options.

what we really need is for Andrea to get better. and we're seeing tangible improvement game by game. the kid actually has pretty decent rebounding potential.

and don't discount Jamario's ability to improve. he's already started to slash better, TJ and Jose will be looking for him above the rim, and a full nba offseason working on his jumpshot could take his overall game to the next level. that's scary.

is our 4 man wing rotation champship caliber? is our center position championship caliber? not yet. however, our wingman rotation IS comparable to that of San Antonio (looking forward to them backing me up tomorrow night). Our center rotation IS comparable to San Antonio's. We just aren't as experienced. Are we on their level with TJ back in the lineup?

I guess we'll find out a little more of where we stand tomorrow night.
