All of the old ass veterans played some role in helping get this team to this point:
-James Jones helped them make it through the Bulls and Hawks series. Solid leader in the locker room.
- Haywood because of his before mentioned contract which could have a major impact on next year's depth.
- Shawn Marion helped to settle the water at the SG spot when Waiters was around. They went on their first 8 game win streak when they started him over Waiters. His body couldn't hold up and I don't think Blatt and him get along.
- Perkins because of the Crowder shyt.
- Miller because of his help with getting Love and Kyrie on board behind the scenes.
I expected more from Marion and Miller on the court but they're old. So it is what it is.
It's hard as hell to turn over a complete roster in one year. They came close to it.
Marion, Haywood, and likely Perkins are all gone after this week. So they've got at least 3 open roster spots and the means to replace it with players that can help more on the court. Which should lower the minutes burden on Irving, Love, and James throughout the season next year.
brehs.
