With seven new players and only 26 games at the end of a season for them to showcase what they can do, it's really unfair for the coach and those seven. Noce being the exception. I think he is the starting SF for several years unless (if) Greene can ever play defense and use his potential.
But the rest will just have tough time showcasing given the circumstances. They will need at least two full weeks of practice to get into the current play sets. But since the Kings don't yet have a style or real leader, it's all the more tougher. Too bad Gooden is not 100% as they can really use his skills in the paint to help stop the layup drills by the other teams.
But Solomon and maybe even McCants need to get Beno's playing time until his foot heals, not BJax, who, with Cisco, are a really good off-the-bench pair. Could Diogu also be a Williamson type off the bench: under sized, tough, defender, rebounder, score down low??? Would be nice.
McCants made a good comment after he had a heart-to-heart with Coachie on Wednesday and maybe can show us better what he can bring.
But we need to realize that Kings are in a Pre-Season mode now with 1/2 the team new in the past week. Having said that, we can hope Coach starts to get some of the new guys some PT unless the front office already has plans for some/many of them.
