Evans and the Small Forwards

Jerebko is the better defender of those 3, but I'd rather have Casspi. Would offer more versatility, could play the stretch, athletic 4 role if needed.

Good point. Cassipi high for me too.

this year's draft, which was said to be one of the weakest in memory, has provided some major talent, with still yet a glimpse of Griffin or Rubio.

Yeah.  I think it was called such a weak draft because it's very, very, very thin on PFs and Cs, and that still appears to be the case.  Besides Blair, Taj Gibson and presumably Griffin, I can't think of any PFs from this draft that might start in the future; as for centers, Thabeet has a chance at being starter quality someday.  I doubt anybody else will, unless Byron Mullens has some hidden untapped potential that the Thunder manage to unleash somehow.

If you look at the list of prospects for next year's draft you can see why:  most of the players projected to go in the first round are big men.

Remember 'rumors' that Evans was Ainge's choice. Its hard to envision a scoring PG working well with the Big3.

Our offense for the Big 3 would include more isolation with PP, and KG posting up. But i think the kid would be left open and really be able to thrive... i'd say that his numbers would be even better because NOONE is going to double off of Ray/PP/KG.
