Nah, I bet they go with Plumlee or Vonley if they cant sign a starting PF. Aminu just seems like a versatile bench option for small ball.

Lol, it does it's already 12:30 on the east coast.
It's July 1st in the Eastern time zone genius.
Exum (28 mpg) (Burks 20 mpg)
Middleton (28 mpg) (Burks 8 mpg) (Hood 12 mpg)
Hayward (30 mpg) (Hood 18 mpg)
Favors (32 mpg) Hayawrd (5 mpg) (Lyles 11 mpg)
Gobert (32 mpg) (Lyles 6 mpg) (Pleiss 10 mpg)
*Obviously due to change based on who performs well with what lineups*

Say we sign K.J. McDaniels.
Exum (30 mins), Burks (13 mins), Neto (5 mins)
Burks (17 mins), McDaniels (20 mins), Hood (11 mins)
Hayward (27 mins), Hood (17 mins), McDaniels (4 mins)
Favors (25 mins), Lyles (18 mins), Hayward (5 mins)
Gobert (32 mins), Favors (7 mins), Pleiss (9 mins)
That's a total of 48 mins per positon and total minutes for each player would look like this:
Exum 30 mins
Burks 30 mins
Hayward 32 mins
Hood 28 mins
McDaniels 24 mins
Favors 32 mins
Gobert 32 mins
Lyles 18 mins
Pleiss 9 mins
Neto 5 mins
You can tweak it around a little any way you want, but that looks pretty spread out and even if you ask me.
Just stop with McDaniels.
Dude is not good at basketball. He would not be able to get minutes over Joe Ingles and Millsap would probably beat him too.

You suggested getting McDaniels for 7 million dollars per year (or 6.5 per year) which is ridicullous and not 1/3rd of what Green/Middleton would get. They are both 16 million dollar max players at most (they can't get more than that). I'd rather have someone who can play basketball and pay them the max than give a bench player rotation player money when they aren't a rotation player.

Burks at PG; Hayward at PF. That's causing two players to play out of position just to accommodate KJ MickeyD. If we're going to do that, may as well sign a veteran stud. And are talking about the player who shot 29% from deep?
Hell yes.

I get you-- I just really really think that playing 70% of Alec's minutes at the 1 is neutering his effectiveness.
To me it just seems most parsimonious to leaving the 2 up to Burks and Hood, resting on the high likelihood that one of our PGs learns the position competently, and wait till February.
Yeah, we are talking about that scrub.

Sign Pleiss, bring Neto if you are gonna cut ties with Cotton or BJB, and call it a season in terms of Free Agency.
Feel free to entertain trades tho

We have Millsap who does the same thing, and might even do it better, for 800K.
