Charlie Bell is averaging 7.5 pts a game and shooting below 40% from the field. Why would we want him? Also, Posey has lost a step and he is nowhere near the player he was when he was here. This trade makes us much worse. Makes our starting 5 worse and just barely makes our bench a little better because of Ridnour, but the rest of the parts don't do anything for me. If we were able to grab Ridnour as a 3rd guard I wouldn't be opposed to that.
Bell shoots mostly 3's. He's shooting 37.4% from 3 this year. That's pretty good. Also, when on a better team, his efficiency would no doubt improve with us compared to the Bucks. We need a shooter to start to spread the floor for Paul, otherwise, Daniels probably starts, but most likely Posey finishes either way. We'd have a pretty good stable of wing players to use, depending on matchups (not that Doc reallyl 'gets' matchups).
Why Posey: because Lebron tends to drive straight through people, using his size and strength. Posey matches up well defensively there and against other SF's, and his 3pt shooting spreads the floor for Daniels, TA, and PP's drives. He probably isn't as effective defensively against SG's anymore, but TA and Daniels would be better matchups there. That doesn't mean he isn't valuable. He's shown he can handle PF minutes, too, behind KG, and already knows the defense. Let's face it, we miss his intensity.
Ridnour: Could be a starter on most teams. Moves Daniels to the proper position, and allows Doc to pull Rondo out for a little talk when needed. Can shoot the lights out, spreading the floor for Daniels and TA. Makes everyone better. Very underrated.
I know we don't get any top-tier marquee names with a deal like this, so I don't expect many people to support it, but I affirm that it would make us a better team in a 48 minute game/9-man rotation. No more Eddie House. Scal is out of the rotation. Potential great defensive second unit with TA/Daniels/Posey/Sheed, and with Ridnour moving the ball, the second unit would run up the score. I don't think the first unit gets all that much worse, and there are more possible wing combo's.
