That would be depressing. There is still a lot of solid talent on the market on the wings.
Could someone please give Keith Bogans + Rodney Carney a call?
I am not a big Carney fan, he is too much athlete, and not enough basketball player for my taste, but I love Bogans. I actually would be fine with Hughes, because he is at least an NBA player, and could step right in, and eat some minutes, and defend...but I would also go after Bogans first.
But, I give Danny the benefit of the doubt that he already has calls into all of these guys. The problem is, while Hughes is in a place where he knows he is getting the vet minimum, guys like Bogans, Mason Jr., and some of the other guys are still holding out hope they can get a chunk of some teams MLE (or cap space), so they are going to linger on the market for another few weeks before even considering the vet minimum offers from contenders.
