GameTime Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I'm looking at players that have potential and have not reached their peak that we could get for cheap. Jodie Meeks (60% TS%; Improve his handles and defense this year; 29% of FGA was 0-3 feet this year) Chris Douglas-Roberts (59% TS%; Improved 3pt%(39%) this year and he attacks) C.J. Miles (57% TS%; Above average 3pt shooter (39%) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aV4wLcr17E MarShon Brooks (58% TS%; Homeless man's Kobe) Xavier Henry (51% Free Throw attempts per FG rate; gets to the line at will; has shown improvement with jumper (35% this year)) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_gHBSo7mR0 Wesley Johnson (very solid 3 and D player who is athletic, can block shots and get steals) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoR_0sRxGw4 Michael Beasley (Improved efficiency this year with 56% TS%; can still be a great scorer in this league; seemed great in Miami locker room; Ferry will have to investigate further but could be a great value here) Ramon Sessions (one of the best in the league at getting to the free throw line (53% Free Throw attempts per FG rate; Shot 36% from 3 in Milwaukee last year) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoC2mjOCNr8 Brandon Rush (possible minimum signing; was a great 3 pt shooter, defender before injury) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skimaskway23 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Nice thread idea. Jodie meeks and marshon brooks intrigue me the most. Marshon needs more confidence and better coaching, but i think he could take lou will's role and flourish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted May 15, 2014 Moderators Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I love Jodie on a fan level. Just file it away that he is combo guard sized and likely to be a size, length and athletic disadvantage versus most starting SGs so he is a role player on a good team.

JohnnyCASH Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I'll take Jodie and CJ on good deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTB Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) The only people I say no to is Brandon rush, Beasley, and Douglas Roberts. I would take any of the other guys. I really like x Henry! The guy can play some defense and his offense has improved well. Edited May 15, 2014 by JTB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtypuppet Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Love Brooks potential and I imagine he'd come really cheap. Seems like a good replacement for Lou going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTB Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Add Marshon Brooks to that list too. I like brooks. Seem to have a bit of a confidence issue if you ask me but nothing too bad coach bud can't fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeltdown Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 I will take Meeks and P.J. Tucker as best fits and top two under radar guys for this team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyCASH Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Think we should trade Lou at the draft for a late 1st and replace him with Meeks dude is lights out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairydawgz Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 What about Andre Blatche? Certainly wouldn't overpay for him but he may be worth a look as a bench big.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Maybe a high second rounder for Louwill. There will be a lot of talent there or get another guy to stash in Euro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member turnermx Posted May 16, 2014 Premium Member Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Maybe a high second rounder for Louwill. There will be a lot of talent there or get another guy to stash in Euro Would be a great move imo. This frees up money for a good FA signing like DMC / Sap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willthepureshooter Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Give me my fellow Tucker alum Marshon Brooks. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFuzz Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) This isn't as cheap or as low profile as your suggestions, and I really hate to say it, but... Paul Pierce could be the steal of FA this year. I'll go wash my mouth out with soap now. Edit: I'm assuming Pierce signs for some kind of $4-6M deal. Doubt he'd sign with us, but I'd look into it as a stop-gap/mentor type of thing. Edited May 16, 2014 by TheFuzz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) I like Meeks, Miles, and Sessions, but not for this team. I don't see a DeMarre there that can signifigantly improve his game, and I'm leery of anyone used to a losing culture. I would guess Henry would get a good look over from the brass though. His age, athleticism, and size is right up our alley. I just hate D'Antoni and anything he touches. He's corrupted players everywhere he's gone into undisciplined offense and pitiful defense. JJ, Marion, and I'll even throw Meeks in there, maintained their integrity on both ends. Even Kobe slacked off defensively under the fool. Watch him get another job from someone who apparently didn't follow his last two stints. Edited May 16, 2014 by benhillboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
