Marcus Thorton...

I assume "coach" Jason belives he can handle the ball at the 1 or tweener guard point as well to spell off the PG when Marquis Teague just isnt delivering. Looks like Kidd wants more small ball options.

Loosing Reggie is no big although I ponder the Raps big 4 now create a serious mismatch issue if KG is tired or in foul trouble.

While this may be a talent upgrade I think in someways the Raps are better positioned to exploit the Nets down the stretch if they have solid perimeter D.
