You know who would literally bring that team together like Voltron? Ryan Anderson. AK-47 moves back to the 3, Anderson at the 4, Splitter 'Splitting' (ha) time as the backup 4 and 5. It would be perfect.

Very strong frontcourt D, but lacks a go-to scorer, unless 2009 Deron comes walking through that door.  And perimeter D will be an issue as well.

If you can successfully improve via another team's salary dump, this can go from a top 6ish team to a top 3. 

Also, there's a guy who will probably still be around for your next pick who could help your weaknesses (EDIT: well, one of em) while his teammates hide his, but it won't be a popular choice.

And what exactly would a player of Ryan Anderson's unimpeachable talent cost me knowing that his addition would create such a near perfect team? I wonder....

Ah, I don't see anything I want really. for all the nice value Ryan Anderson has for you, he has more for me.

Starting lineup:

PG: B.Jennings
SG: W.Matthews
SF: M.Webster
PF: D.Lee
 C: N.Pekovic

No real star here, but a lot of ball movement, good scoring, and good defense. I know I need a slasher and I'll be looking to get one in the later rounds.

I might try to move Jennings, perhaps for a wing scorer so you can bring Webster off the bench (not crazy about him as a starter).  His Iverson-lite mentality wouldn't get the most out of Lee and Pek.  You need a guy who is content to run the offense through the post game. 

There's a certain overlooked guy in Atlanta who would fit that description for you.

I actually have had that guy eyed in for my 5.24 pick all along as I just don't think anyone will touch him. But, for what he brings in areas I need help in, he's what I need.

I'm not a fan of Kemba Walker as a point guard at all.  I think he's just bad at 5-on-5 basketball.  There's way too much iso and way too little ball movement in Charlotte, and I think this guy is part of the problem.

Mayo is a very solid 2-guard now, and I like Batum a lot as a glue guy.  Can't really comment on Vucevic since I haven't seen him play much, but his stats are nice. 

Overall, not crazy about the team.  The Mayo/Batum/Vucevic trio is pretty nice and there's some synergy and untapped potential there, but I'd get Walker as far away from them as possible.

OJ Mayo, pick and roll.


Do you have the right guy to pick with?

A lot of weapons but no one to efficiently run them.
