Obviously Simmons looking like the #1. But with him being best with the ball I can't see it working with DLoad. Hell Russell already has shown he is better without Clarkson. Add to the fact Julius like to handle the ball as well.

Clarkson imo, Randle needs another year to learn how to play under control before we gotta let him go. I think a big small combo of Simmons/Russell works better than the small small combo of Russell/Clarkson.

Randle would get traded, especially if it seems like Simmons can play the 4 as well.
You don't feel a clash between Russ/Simmons styles?

Clarkson does seem off this year

First of all you would have to see how it would pan out and if you would need to trade any of them. Russell and Ben could be your primary ballhandlers and Clarkson could be the guy who creates his offense off the dribble and catch and shoot.

fukk that, we going for Ingram. He can shoot and play d. last thing we need is another ball dominant player.

Clarkson is too talented to trade and let go for an unproven rookie next. Him and Russell can work if they weren't playing in a prehistoric offense.

If it were to happen, nobodies getting traded right away :manny:

I'm giving Julius another year to work on the mid range. He can always be energy off the bench.

Randle is in the top 10 in the league right now in number of double doubles so far. And he's effectively just a rookie. You don't just trade guys like that

I'm not 100% sure we HAVE to trade anyone.

@The God Poster what do you think about bringing Clarkson off the bench?
