Thoughts??

Smitty

P.S. Luke can run the point until Rondo is fully healthy and then serve as a quite capable backup once RR is back.

I would do it.

Minny really doesn't need Ridnour as they have Rubio, Barea, and Shved on their roster.

Tall player who is not completely worthless, is on a cheap contract, and might be available without having to give up anything significant.

I'd rather see ideas for players like Stiemsma who might realistically be available rather than stupid ideas for players like Ian Mahinmi who just won't be available.

2.6 million for him, and what he brings is not all that cheap. He sucks in all honesty, particularly with his pick-and-roll defense.

We're better off with a vet. min. player.

Nope.

Lee had a very disappointing season but with how he plays and what we saw from him in his career, he's going to offer more for us than Ridnour could.

And why pay 2.6 on a specialist when we could just draft someone with better upside?

Because IF KG and PP and Doc are coming back, we have a ONE to TWO year window and we need someone that can contribute NOW, not in 3-4 years!!!
