Horford has played center his entire NBA career...
yeah I assume he will start there.    This is why it never made sense to do the trade with Philly for Noel.  If the goal was to sign a center, why do that?  We signed a center.
Who starts next to Horford is a good question. I'd be fine with Olynyk getting the job. Having two bigs who can score from the perimeter would really help our spacing. That both are good shooters doesn't hurt either.

Sully is not a bad option to stay close the basket

I think if we sign Durant we will resign Sullinger because we can go over the cap to sign him.

we have to renounce him to fit Durant under the cap and then we cant go over to get him anymore.

When will Olynk be back?

Id keep Amir. I also like the idea of Pachulia(think hes been super underated, he was really instrumental in the bucks big season 2 years ago and also in keeping Dallas afloat last year) or gasol on massive Amir like contracts. I also wouldnt mind adding Noel/Okafor/WCS but at this point im not sure how much sense those trades would make, and Im not a big WCS fan.
Pachulia would be a good addition.  We could use a bruiser down low.

I'm liking the idea of bringing back Perkins over Amir now that i think about it.  More of a team leader and a good backup to have who will muscle guys with Horford here.

Would love to see KG and pierce back in backup roles too but not sure how that would work.

This really needs to be KD's team.  I think having Perk back would be enough.  Having KG and Pierce would be a bit much imo.

Not trying to be rude here, but can people please shut up about Perkins? He's toast!

Yeah, and Amir is about 10x the player Perk is.

There are worse things in this world than perkins lol. I just got done saying I'd substitute Amir for Perk in another thread and just said I'm warming up to perkins.  Calm down.

I'd take Perk over Amir. There are worse things that could happen in this world.

Bringing back KG and Pierce would be a bit much.  This really needs to be KD's team in that regard.

Bringing back Perk over Amir isn't terrible.  Amir could be our PJ Brown  he's more talented than Perkins at this point but I more see him like Brandon Bass.  He really isn't that good. He's a somewhat bland player.
