Coach Bud's ideal small forward

[skimaskway23]

Now this is just me thinking out loud with my hawks brethren.

We know that Bud had a big hand in trading george hill for kawhi leonard. We also know that he is somewhat the mastermind behind the offense run in San Antonio.

Teague essentially is our tony parker and horf is the tim duncan. So lets look at the wings. He likes a dead eye shooter at the 2 like danny green. Korver played admirably in that role but he is limited outside of that. At the 3 spot he went and grabbed kawhi leonard with the pick he got for george hill. He wanted a defensive player he could groom with offensive upside. The market was dry last summer so he took DMC at a bargain. DMC is like a raw kawhi with limited upside. Both had a similar skillset.

The point of all this is, perhaps the kawhi leonard selection can shed some light into what type of player we are targeting in the draft. I hear names like dario and kyle anderson but those guys would not fit and would be liabilites defensively.

This is speculation, but im curious as to what you guys think.

This is being hashed out at the below link. Most everyone thinks it will be BPA at either the shooting guard or small forward position.
