Who do we have behind Horford and Zizic at the PF/C positions?
Now I get it, Brad Stevens, when asked what position Tatum would play, responded, "It doesn't matter", and I get that now basketball is becoming position-less in a sense.
And I also understand that FIRST, we have to actually sign Hayward or have a really good idea that we are getting him in FA.
But we can't ignore that we lose all of Amir/Zeller/Jerebko/Mickey/Olynyk. We also probably can't bring Yabusele to the team in order to preserve some cap space to make these moves as well. Fitting in Zizic will be a little tough but manageable.
You can probably add someone with a room exception, but that's about it. I'm guessing someone internally, like Jerebko, or Gerald Green could get it (or someone else, a "ring chaser big", comes to the team).
Hayward and PG13 can play some of the 4, and Hayward + Jaylen can play the 2 (Jaylen probably moves over there if we add PG13 and let go of Bradley+Crowder to make $$$ work).
But I fear our front court actually becomes really weak,
and we are a Horford injury away from having virtually no bigs and a 48-minute team of smallball... Griffin + George may make more sense. We'll see what happens in the coming week.
