I think Hayward will serve as a nice yang regardless.
"that Raja Bell recovers from the injuries that plagued him last season and takes on a larger role as well"
i don't know many jazz fans that wish raja to have a larger role on the team
I think we will need Raja next season. I think it's going to be awhile before Burks can contribute (especially with no pre season or training camp). That is of course assuming there is a season. If the season started on time, I would guess it would be Feb before Burks saw any real time, kind of like Hayward last year.
Harris and Watson would probably be a Top 10 PG combo in the league. Between the two they should get beyond adequate production from that spot. Chris Paul and Jarrett Jack are probably the best PG start-bench combo, but Harris-Watson isn't so bad.
Memo should come back strong, and i would insert him back in the starting line-up. Memo and Jefferson is what the starting unit should have been last year and it should be this season 9whenever there may be a season). If Memo starts than Millsap cannot say anything about moving back to the bench... and becoming 6th man of the year.
i think the only leader potential player in this team is Hayward. Jefferson, Harris cant do it, and most people would like to see Raja out of the roster rather than being a leader. But i think, if we make a package of Hayward and Jefferson, Millsap can step up as the veteran leader guy in our team even though he is pretty young. Anyway we dont need 10 guys to lead, we need just 1 and i think that will be Hayward sooner or later. Also we need some decent coaching as well
