(A) The Roster: At Long Last, We Have One
We've got fifteen players and a reasonable enough starting five. The current depth chart looks something like this:
Point | Shooting | Small | Power | Center |
Jarrett Jack | Eric Gordon | Trevor Ariza | Carl Landry | Emeka Okafor |
Greivis Vasquez | Marco Belinelli | Al-Farouq Aminu | Jason Smith | Chris Kaman |
Squeaky Johnson | Trey Johnson | DaJuan Summers | Gustavo Ayon | |
