Actually I see Alex Len is still available. Schlenk should at least take a shot at him

I forgot about Len. He hits the boards are hard. That is about it but for a 5th big off the bench, you cannot expect to much,

He's gonna have a hell of a time beating out Conley and Carter for minutes.

It is called injury insurance.

It is called injury insurance.

For the Grizzlies sure, but I would like to think Mack is still good enough to be someone's backup and not third string. Haven't really watched much of him lately though.

[kg01]

Why?  Seems weird.  Why do these two teams keep trading with each other.  Their GM's just need to date each other so they have a real excuse to keep being on the phone.

What are you looking for in terms of a role on your next team? Malcolm Delaney: Wherever I play I just want to be able to do me. Haven’t been able to since Russia and it was a difficult two years in atl but just ready for whatever’s next.

Len not a bad dice roll but he has not been good. Phoenix is on a really big run of failing to develop big men.

 

Probably too many guards on the roster but I like Nwaba.

[JayBirdHawk]

Remaining Free Agents:

PGs: Isaiah Whitehead / Sean Kilpatrick / SGs: Tyrone Wallace / Jameer Nelson
David Nwaba / Dwyane Wade / Nick Young / Jamal Crawford
SFs: Rodney Hood / Vince Carter / Joe Johnson / Shabazz Muhammad 
PFs:Trevor Booker / Brandan Wright / Darrell Arthur / Christian Wood / Luke Babbit
Cs: Clint Capela / Greg Monroe / Noah Vonleh / Jahlil Okafor

[AHF]

Very interested to see Hood’s price point. I could see him being a great deal or way overpriced (or in between).

[Blunt91]

Would y'all take a flier on Shane Larkin as the 3rd PG? I think he is still out there as Celtics used their money to resigning Smart.

I think he could be useful. He has enough experience to fill in and he shoots the three ball well enough ( .360 last season ).

Indications are he is looking for a better role though. This is from HoopsHype:

Quote

What factors are you considering in free agency? What things are most important to you as look at potential destinations? Shane Larkin: The most important thing for me is playing time. I’ve been in a lot of different situations throughout my career thus far. Sometimes I’ve played a lot of minutes, sometimes I haven’t gotten many minutes, sometimes the minutes have been very inconsistent. I’m just trying to find a team that wants me to play good minutes so that I can continue to grow and develop for their team.
