Rashad McCants. McCants is a better prospect because if you sign him to a decent contract he actually has the potential to play more and more minutes as the seasons go on - rather than just being a solution for this year. He can play both the 2 & 3, he plays decent D and his offense ability is so far ahead of the others it's not funny.

I 'd want the best defender and a guy who can finish on the break, and won't want to put up many jump shots. Maybe a slasher like TA once was, because he's playing in a unit that will spread the floor. From the list? Barnes, Graham or Udoka.

Giddens and Walker are both ridiculous athletes who should be able to contribute, they just need to know their role and execute. The question is, can they?
