What type of player would we want if we only had one spot available

[brfrad]

I was spending some time thinking what type of player we would get if everyone were to come back

 

I thought of 5 type of players for the one spot:

 

Glynn Watson type PG

Erick Strickland type lock down defender able to slash to the basket

Eric Piatkowski sharp shooter

Isaiah Roby type stretch 4

Derick Chandler rim protector

 

My choice would be Strickland.  

 

Really couldn't go wrong in your choice.  Now, it appears we have 2 spots.  My 2nd choice would be rim protector.

Looks like we will have more open spots

I think you take Piatkowski regardless of team needs. He was that good and that impactful.

I voted for Roby, but really want a Mikki Moore type...tall, uber-athletic shot blocker and lob threat.

Mikki Moore was the first guy that popped in my head.  From the list - Piatkowski

[Cazzie22]

I voted for “that young man doesn’t know how good he is” Roby.  In our system he would be dynamic.

You don't turn down a talent like Pike. Pike in this team this year? That's a likely Sweet 16 team. 

[nustudent]

We really need a 4.   But if you can add a Pike, you make Gary work at the 4 

[Norm Peterson]

Looking back, this question almost seems comical.

 

Like update the thread to say "if we only had five spots to fill ..."

Watson 

Lawrence 

Williams

I'm usually not to worried about the starting 5 being good.  It's the next 4 off the bench that determine how good of team you will have.  In the past, we have had a great starting lineup until you have to sub in and then it as a pretty big drop-off. This year, we were fortunate that wasn't the case.

That’s True, I took the question to mean what one player would you add to our Roster today. 

[Ron Mexico]

Watch todays games and there’s your answer.

Either Watson or Chandler.

We, fortunately, have 5 slots to fill... so, I'm not picking just *one*!
