Doc Rivers and more on building a winner

I was very comfortable with Powe, House, Baby off the bench.

in terms of talent, yeah they're solid...but in terms of flexibility, you are limited. you have no perimeter defender and nobody to protect the rim.

Well we have two shot blockers in KG and Perkins, so I think we shouldn't worry about that aspect overly much. Very few NBA teams have more than bigs who can protect the rim.

But we definitely need a backup wing who can defend and shoot.

Yeah, i'd put them as 1A and 1B in terms of order of importance.

I was just reading a thread over at RGM referencing a Wyc interview where he said that he has a player in mind that he would love to grab for the Cs....no other indication of who the player might be.

but part of the order of importance obviously will be based on who is available and who they really think they could land.

I was excited that they might already really have their sights set on someone. I would imagine if that's the case, it's probably a pretty exciting addition.

My guess would be Rasheed, but who knows.
