Really wish Ariza was an option. I'm not sure how he'd be doing in the poll but I feel like he'd have more than 1 or 2 votes like some of the people listed.
I'll own up to voting Knight now before it's asked or anyone assumes it was a joke. He can be the 2nd best player on the team if he can be the player he was in Milwaukee. He has better teammates now than he did there which could help him be a better playmaker. If he embraces that role and finds his teammates in position to score, his value to the team will be high. He needs to be able to score on his own and set up players while knowing when it's best to do each of things. He can't hold the ball too long or play too much ISO ball. We'll see if Igor can get him to do that. If he buys in and plays like he's capable of then he'll fill a big hole for us and be a positive player for us all season. He's the only guy on the list that's it's clear he'll be the starter on day 1 also.
I don't know how Bridges, Jackson, and Warren will be used. They can't start all of them together. So 2 of them will probably be coming off the bench which will limit the impact they have. Ayton will probably be the starting Center all season and that's fine but I don't want to rely on him that much. I think he can have a huge impact but everyone else needs to adjust to playing with a dominate big and that will take some time. It'll take some time for him to learn how to use his size and strength as an advantage at the NBA level also. He won't be a complete player from day 1 and if there is poor PG play, that could effect him negatively the most.
If Knight can average around 15 ppg, 6-7 apg, and shoot 38% from 3pt range though he could be a good PG for us this year and help us a lot more than Warren scoring close to 20 a game. Booker will get his, I'm confident in that, but it'll be Knight's job to make sure everyone else is in a position to play to their best by finding them in position to knock down shots or getting the ball to them so they can expose mismatches. If he can average that much and be a positive player for us, then I think he'll be the #2 or #3 player on the team. Odds of that happening are probably low but I think there's a 50/50 chance right now, maybe even 60/40. Igor seems to be happy with how he's working with him in practice so I'm trusting his judgement and the lack of a move being made to bring in another PG as another sign that he believe Knight can the PG he needs this season.
