Quality thread, thanks for the write-ups InsideoutO.
This coming season will be interesting, a transition season. It's up to SVG to make some tweaks to his strategy, as it is apparent the Shard-as-4 strategy requires a better shooting guard than we have had on this team. Not to knock JJ, or even VC, but neither of them present the real threat we need to isolate and score against their defender. Without that threat Shard can't do anything special from the 4 and his advantage as a 3 goes to waste.
Like you say in the OP, if we resign JJ both he and Anderson should start. VC is out of the picture IMO. So seeing how much potential those two have will be the biggest key to the season.
Think about it - we moved Courtney Lee and now we have a spot for JJ to start (in theory) and a system-fitting PF to start. As a side note, that trade wasn't bad no matter what VC does. It's not like Courtney Lee is lighting it up in Jersey.
