For starters, I really want GarPaxDorf to go hard after former Jazz asst coach
Phil Johnson, who provides both offensive as well as additional defensive schemes for Thibs to apply with his own.
As for the vacant SG spot, I'd look at J-Richardson. I'd say Ray Allen, but I don't think he wants to leave Boston. But the SG I REALLY want is Derron Williams. (Leave me alone Kadafi, lol!). JR Smith is a big time risk as well as Crawford who are shot jackers. Crawford could potentially become another Korver on this team. Especially if we don't have good offensive coaching. If the Bulls were to make Arron Afflalo or Marcus Thornton an offer that Denver or Sacramento won't care to match, I'd be satisfied. So IMO what needs to happen is:
1)Rose needs to dedicate this summer's training strictly to adding a consistent 3 pt shot to his arsenal. If he does this, I know with Rose's work ethic can become a top 5 3pt shooter by next season.
People can criticize Rose about being the prime scorer all they want. Wasn't he criticized after game 2 for facilitating too much? I think some of it is BS trolling, but I digress.
And
2) Get a consistent scoring SG, not a player who may have some good shooting games, a few really good games later, then when he's really needed the most, suddenly clanks damn near everything he throws up.
