You now have $14M saved and a $10M exception in 2015 plus 3 first round picks to sign an UFA, sign and trade a RFA, or draft for depth. What if you took that lineup above and added 2 of these guys: Eric Gordon or Dragic in case Wiggins busts (I'm assuming Waiters walks). Greg Monroe, Omer Asik, DeAndre Jordan, Brook Lopez. That's a very good team even if Bennett and Wiggins are terrible. Now take that same team and assume Bennett or Wiggins or both are average. Very good. Excellent?


- Lebron without Wiggins = 40+ minutes a night. 3 years from now, Lebron is 1 part of 3 man wrecking crew
- Lebron with Wiggins = < 40 minutes a night. 3 years from now Lebron is facilitator for a deep team.


They do. But they also have a TON of options with great trade chips and a ton of cap space. They can use those to either fix Wiggins or Bennett if they suck, or an even better scenario... what if Wiggins and Bennett are good and you can use those trade chips and cap space to complement them? Wow.

Only Wiggins can sub for Lebron?
