Our outside shooting will be so terrible.

I'm not concerned with the chemistry between Holiday and Evans. We have to remember that Holiday plays with Evan Turner who is also a ball dominant guy. They didn't have too much trouble sharing. The only concern I really have is if we sign Evans and go after Iggy while getting rid of Gordon. I'm not sure how we're going to space the floor with Evans and Iggy on the court together.

I just threw that up there for discussion's sake. Seriously doubt he has any actual inside information.

Keeep Gordon........................!

It really would.... Ryno can't just do it by himself that's what I don't want Evens

It amazes me people are going to complain about having 3 ball handlers on the court at once. Holiday will now have the most help of his career and also shot 48% from 3 in off ball attempts so having Gordon and Evans kicking it out won't hurt. Our big men now will have 3 capable players who can run the pick and roll and get to the rim at will. Evans can definitely turn the corner on defense at SF/SG with playing under Monty in a defense 1st system compared to chaos in Sac town. Evans is still very young and has lots of potential to turn into a 35-40% 3pt shooter while getting better on D and learning the game much better all together. He would only add to our extremely young and talented core while fitting great into our offense. Having Holiday, Gordon, Evans, and Rivers would give us so many combinations of lineups throughout the game to make sure we have great players on the court together at all times would make us way better. Scary thing is all 4 of them still have the potential to become better shooters and all around better basketball players.

Dell and Benson really are trying to put together a "win now" type of team compared to being patient and waiting. I kinda like it ha

jrue/rivers
gordon/tyreke
iggy/miller
davis/ryno
lopez/j.smith

championship

how would our outside shooting be terrible? jrue, gordon and ryno all shoot the 3 over 35% not to mention tyreke shot 34% and iggy 33% i think, it would be fine.

Oh and side note, I'd rather keep Gordon than to trade him and go for both Evans and Iggy. I'd rather just us go for one of them unless somehow miraculously we'd be able to sign both of them without giving up Jrue, Gordon, Ryno, Davis.

Lux tax all day, err day.

So adding Andre Iguodala would help our outside shooting, but Evans will hurt it.

Reke shot 2 3s a game at a 34% clip
Shot 12 fgs at a 48% clip
Iggy shot 3.6 3s a game at a 32% clip
shot 11 fgs at a 45% clip

And this was when Reke was option #1 most of the time. Imagine when he's option 3-4 a game. What we need to have 3 guys on the court at a time that can shoot lights out!

I've skimmed through the thread and d not see anyone complain about having 3 ball dominant players. Maybe I missed it, but the main issue with them 3 is defense and how Evans match up with normal size SFs. Guys on the Kings forum is laughing at us playing him at the 3.

Well now they're reporting that Evans doesn't want to go anywhere as a 3, no matter the money.

Sooooo.... as the world turns.

Thank you if we want to "win now" lets get a 3 that can at least compete with the SF in the league....

He also played Defense something we would probably have to teach Reke

Exactly! We can add a player that scored 15.2 ppg shooting 48%! Dude almost made half his shots! That's a better FG% than Gordon, GV, and Ryno!

Chances Tyreke signs w/ NOLA low if they plan on using him at SF. Source close to Evans says Reke won't "go anywhere for any amount as a 3."

I personally think his best position is PG, but he's well suited for SG too.

So EJ S&T for Iggy is looking like an option now. It would just suck to see him go on to be healthy and productive.

The last time a King's writer made a statement about the Pelicans and Evans, it turned out to be false.
