If we do this, we would be set, and the only thing left would be to find a way to get rid of Diop and George (I like George, but we need to get younger)

I don't think Kidd is the right PG for this team. We need someone that is an offensive threat. Kidd's set 3 is great, but we need someone that can attack some. With players like Diop, Williams, and George getting minutes, we lack firepower. We only get offense from 3 guys- Dirk, Josh, and Terry. Think back to pre-Kidd. We also had Devin and Stack providing scoring whenever we needed it.

The Spurs get away with 3 guys on offense, but they are dominant defensively. All 3 of their guys on offense also go to the basket, which our top 3 rarely do. They also have issues with draughts on offense that they struggle with even with their defense.

Our mediocre defense and 3 weapons on offense aren't enough. As I said a while ago, we need Green. We need him to develop into a starter for this team to be competitive. There is a slim chance we could get a 4th option with Stack's expiring, but that's a slim chance.
