Punch Bowl Re-Filler
Why?
Between the 2 and 3, there are 96 minutes per game. Jazz ain't bringing back AK. CJ has a 1-year deal; he'll be gone or traded after that. And Bell is washed up. So even if the Jazz draft or trade for a SF, there are still enough minutes for 3 players to get 32 mins/each at the wings.
Personally, I'd like to see Hayward start at SG, then slide to backup SF when Burks comes in. Alec could be a great 6th man like Crawford (or actually like Maggette used to be). Both could certainly start at some point, though. From what we read, Hayward has been a workout maniac this summer. He could easily put on 15 lbs and look like a prototypical SF when basketball resumes.
I think the best balance would be to start Jefferson, Favors, CJ, Hayward and Harris. That's enough options on offense, with Favors a strong interior defender (and CJ only plays this year until Utah can trade or draft a better SF).
The 2nd unit is then anchored by Millsap, Burks and Kanter with Watson hopefully returning as the backup point. Seriously, that's not like putting in a 2nd unit; it's more like sending in the next wave.
If the young guys develop, Utah has the potential to be one of the deepest teams in the league. I don't think we've ever been able to say that.
