If Caron was out for the season, I guess we'd have to think bigger than that and trade his expiring contract, which is everything he would be at this point with a season-ending injury, for a guy who could help immediately. Stephen Jackson has been talked about around here and would be a decent replacement due to being versatile and allowing Marion to switch to the 4 and back up Dirk. Only, of course, if getting him didn't require to give up Roddy or another important piece.
Our rotation at the forward spots is quite concerning without Butler. There's only Cardinal left and some out-of-position options like Mahinmi, DeShawn or Dojo. Despite having Dirk, Marion and Butler under contract during the summer, our main priority was to sign another forward like Haslem or Harrington due to a lack of depth in that area. Missing Butler for the remainder of the season would only worsen the situation.
