you're probably correct. a deal isn't likely especially since getting Roddy back is essentially adding a difference maker for nothing. but the truth remains Caron was playing the worst ball of his career up till about a week- week and a half ago. you could make the argument that Caron is the weak link chemistry-wise as he hasn't played well within the offense, doesnt compliment Dirk and apparently needs to be a starter to validate his ego and contract push. when he doesnt have the ball he's usually standing still. when he does have the ball he's dribbling to create space, with his head down, for his eventual jumper and the rest of the team stands because they know no pass is coming.
even if Caron could keep up his supposedly "torrid" pace it would still be about what was expected of him or less. he hardly is a factor on the glass anymore and doesn't create for others. he's a decent defender. he's like a taller Jamal Crawford w/out the range or handles at this point.
