I was just about to say that Eskin was on top of the Brand signing when it the Sixers were still considered to have a little shot of landing him.
Do you think (not do you WANT) that Kareem Rush will be ahead of Willie Green on the depth chart???
I don't. Mo plays generally a 9 man rotation with 2 guys getting in the 8-15 minute range. I think Rush fits in the 8-15 minute range.
Last year, Miller, Iggy, Thad, Sam, Louis, Reggie, and Willie all averaged 20 minutes, while Jason Smith and Carney averaged 14. They were the only players to get into more than half of the games.
I see a Miller, Iggy, Brand, and Sammy playing 30+ minutes. Thad, Louis, and Willie playing 20+ as they did last year, and Rush and Reggie might get about 10-15mpg.
Either Smith or Speights won't log many minutes. I think it will be an open competition. They gave Thad minutes over Carney when he earned them. I'm sure Speights will have the opportunity to earn minutes over Smith. However, after Sam, Brand, and Reggie, there will not be many minutes left for those two.
Unless, there is a trade, I think Mo goes with Willie based on his rotation from last year.
