If we keep Wes and Arron, would they split starting duty?

IMO it's clear that healthy Wes > Afflalo, at least for this team.

I hope Wes recovers fully and Afflalo is on the roster next season. Wes + Afflalo + CJ is a nice 'problem' to have.

Wes should not push it and not try to be 100% early in the season. Arron can play some backup SF, and CJ can play some PG off the bench.

I don't think it's a problem at all. Either way, we will know the answer in time for the All Star Break/Trade deadline.

(Edit: Yeah. What Draco said.... )

 

One disagreement: Nico is too fragile to play any form of PF. Please let's not go there.

 

He has played small ball PF often and he is fine in that role. I'm not talking about a starting lineup I'm talking about the end of the game when LaMarcus is at center and the opponent is running guard isolations or a similar small unit. Nic won't do it against bruiser style PF's such as ZBo on Memphis. But if its an opponent that has Draymond Green or Dirk or Ariza or Kawhi type of player at PF Nic is fine in those situations. The rest of the Blazer guards collapse into the paint on D and for rebounding as well.
