The young route could include (not signing everyone of these guys, just people we could target)
Biyombo (yall know)
McDaniels (damed shame what Houston did to him
Jordan Hill (I know yall might hate this one but he'll be cheap, he's only 27 and he can shoot)
Kyle O'Quinn (stuck behind bigs in Orlando but all I hear is good and he has a post game undeniably)

If we still want vets I'd look at:
Bellinelli (can slide to SF and has the right skills and smarts for the system plus he comes from San Antonio which uses some triangle principals)
Kevin Seraphin (he doesn't play D but he's actually pretty damned good inside and he'd be cheap)
Marcus Thornton (we could use more fire power and if he costs cheap then worth a look)
Lavoy Allen (not gonna wow anybody, but he's solid and would be a nice big off the bench)
Brandon Bass (Could use a big whose down to play physical ball and can shoot)

The pawn off our space for expirings or dumps route:
I've said this before and yall hated it, but Hibbert. He's an expiring contract, has experience in the Princeton offense and maybe we could pawn off Calderon in the process. The Kings and Suns both gave up plenty to dump contracts...maybe we could get something to help with the rebuild while picking up a serviceable Center that blocks shots and expires in a year?

I want an Iverson type of plan. Build a defense heavy unit and let Melo drop 30 a night while the team holds opponents to low 90's which means they're in every game competitively.


Needs another capable scorer, I'm hoping Grant can average 15 to 17 :sadcam:

If it was LeBron, dudes would be lining up to play with dude. Even with a roster lacking in talent.


So basically you are still mad that Bron chose MIA instead of NY, give it up breh. That's over with. :stopitslime:

I really like the rookies and feel that their ability alone will get them to average double figures. Get some defensive centers...Fill the roster out with competent vets mixed with the new youth & this team will compete in the East



Is Brandon Bass a Free agent :gladbron:

Grant is gonna be really good. I don't know about 15-17 but he's gonna do numbers for sure! And yeah, Bass is UFA and I'd definitely give him a look.

didnt people think cleanthony could do the same ? Some people even thought he was Melos replacement cause Phil wasn't ever offering the max
