You consider Bogut a 3rd stringer!!!!!!

Ok... I think I read that wrong.

Favors is a PF in your scenario or traded.....

Withey was our third string... behind even Boris. Favors PF and Bogut is Gobert's backup, giving him good breathers. Or we go big and play Gobert / Bogut / Favors / Bolomboy / Hayward.
 
It's time for fresh blood at the backup C spot. Withey was a nice find given the price tag. If a player like Ike Anigbogu we're somehow to fall in Utah's laps at #24 it'd be a grave misstep not to pull the trigger. He's a really high upside project and likely will be the youngest player in the league. He's gonna crush workouts and interviews tho and will be out of range.
 
so, when a team has several max contracts like we do, and will have more to come, you have to have servicible players on bargain basement contracts. Withey and Mack are the kind of guys that fit the bill. I personally hate max contracts, once you have a couple, it cripples your team. I hated AK from the moment he got his, and i'm not too happy with hayward and Gobert, though they are kinda worth it. Notice one thing about recent championship contenders: players, even sometimes stars that are getting paid under their 'worth'. For example, Golden state and Steph. Or the late years of Duncan. Durant i believe took less by going to golden state. If you want to win a championship, it's not about getting max players, it's about getting max players to take less. If Gordon, Gobert and star number three whoever steps up (Dante, Hood, Favors, Alec (shudder) all get max contracts and if Hill gets more than a 20% raise, then things are going to get really tight in the salary front.
