I would exchange Ervin for a Gilchrist in a flash. Keep Carter Gibbo and Cadee. Ervin goes erratically
from game winner to loser.

Ideally keep the entire team except Ervin.

This is a tough one.

Ervin has been great this year. Looking back to early in the season, he was huge in getting us the win in 5-6 games down the stretch - these games last year we likely would have lost. This got us off to a great start (8-2) and the team continued to ride that confidence throughout the season.

However, he is 31 this year and with his game likey to slow down in the next few seasons, is it worth looking to the future?

It is just so important to invest in young Australian talent and for that reason, I would probably say to let Ervin go after this season and give Cadee the starting job. Cadee has been very good this year with Ervin out and he has a large upside, it would be very disappointig to see him leave the sixers in terms of the future. Ervin's import spot could be used to bring in a stud SF which still gives a high quality rotation from the PG to SF spot. Our rotation through the PF and C spots is already the best in the league and if DJ goes overseas, he can also be replaced with an import.

It would be a gutsy move to let Ervin go and promote Cadee though and it seems unlikely this will happen with Cadee probably moving on. As others said, a lot depends what happens in this GF series as it will be the biggest stage these players have experienced throughout their time in thr NBL.

The other argument is that the 36ers have done very well recruiting in the last few years and with Joey as coach, that will likely continue to be an area the club does well. This may mean losing a player like Cadee isnt that big of a loss as we are likely to be able to recruit similarily talented youngsters in the next few seasons.

Decide after the GF series. He would have been sacked if Tigers got through & should be sacked if he stinks it up against Perth. Next week is crucial...
