Defensively this is an upgrade. Tavares has good length as does Splitter. Losing Carroll probably hurts the most at this point.

Yeah Splitter is a 4-year starter with the Spurs, so he even played under Coach Bud for a couple years. He fits in Bud's system seamlessly.

If he can stay healthy, he's 8-10 points and 6-8 rebounds and a couple blocked shots a night. But most of all, we get to move Horford back to his natural position at the 4.

And if we get Harris at the 3, who cares about losing DeMarre. Harris is 18 points and 6 rebounds a game from the 3 spot. DeMarre was 11.5 and 4. Granted, he was an outstanding defender, but he only became a defensive gem once he got in Bud's system. Harris shoots and moves the ball better and we got Sefolosha to play defense at the 3 when it's needed. Harris actually isn't a bad defender either.
