  1. Just for the record I just checked Rocky Mountain summer league stats:

    Ehadadi 14 ppg 11,5 rpg 2,5 bpg shooting 0,647%FG and 0,600%FT, the bad thing 4,5 TOpg. Sounds about right for a center.

  2. Agree Childress is the better player but I think Evans is the best fit:

    - Provides so much needed 3pt shooting, outside of JJ and Bibby who else can shot the 3. Will open the defense and create space to score inside.

    - Play perimeter defense, we don't have perimeter stoppers.

    - Will not steal as much minutes from Marvin as JC did, simply as one stole the minutes from the other none of them could achieve his full potential.

    - Marvin and Childress were similar players wing players with no outside game. You need different options to win games. We cannot afford to have 50% of our wing players not capable of shooting behind the arc, that is ridicolous.

    - 2,5 M$ for a bench guy is the right thing, you just cannot pay 8M$ to a bench guy that is impacting the development of one of your up and coming young players.

    I think the right way for this team should be more FA signings like Evans, cheap proven bench players that strength your team while keeping your salary low and present an attractive core for FA to sign with this team.

    Try to think this way, for 2010 summer when all the star FA will come out you could have had a team with a young core of Law, JJ, Marvin and Horford and bench players like Duhon, Evans, Hermann, Fazekas and Kwame Brown all of them signed for 2M$ maximum that gives you a cap space of around 25M$, would not be a place you will consider if you are for example Chris Bosh?

  3. That´s not bad but Noah and Hinrich are a risk although they fill a need. Noah is skinny young center that has shown some promise but has character issues and does not have the physical tools to dominate. Hinrich is a good player, last year he was just terrible, not worth a 5m$ contract and he makes10M$, you should wait a lot more from a 10M$ PG, I hope he fixes it. Could we also add Shefolosha?.

    Hinrich/Law/Speedy

    JJ/Evans

    Marvin/?

    Horford/Thomas

    Noah/Zaza/Morris

  4. That´s horrible but what about a S&T Josh Smith for Kaman, I think it works both ways.

    LAC got a up and coming young PF to replace Brand, a guy that can do all and would complement well with Carmby and Thornton. A combination of Carmby and Josh Smith gives you a nasty shot-blocking frontcourt. It´s a better combination than Kaman and Carmby as both are Centers.

    ATL gets his much needed Center and can move Al to the PF position where seems he is more suited for. Kaman's contract is 10M$ and he fills a need. We rebuild around JJ, Horford and Kaman, Marvin can become the 2nd offensive option, if he does not progress we don´t resign him and have cap space to sign a big FA on 2009 or a superstar on 2010 when Speedy's contract is out.

  5. Hi guys! I'm new posting though I've been following the forum long time ago.

    Just wanted to know your opinion about some guys I think could provide some help.

    Sund has said he wanted to add two bigs. We already have Morris, what about Harrison? He is a legit 7footer center that has great upside and could become a good role player and I think he could be signed cheap 1,5M$?. On limited minutes he provided decent stats, now we lost Kwame I think he could provide more help than Zaza. Other bigs I would consider are Fazekas a PF with great size and good shot that provides something different to the frontcourt and Magloire that could be a defensive presence although I doubt we can sign Magloire cheap.

    I would also like to give a opportunity to Gelabale, a athletic G/F that can provide scoring from the bench, defense and can shot the 3pt. He could also be signed cheap and on limited minutes he proved his worth on Seattle

    Thoughts?
