    The only player in the league I can see fitting the bill for someone that we could acquire in a lop sided trade is Iggy. Or we could do something really extreme and go after Carmelo Anthony.

    I don't know if those Rajon Rondo rumors had any merit, but how about, how about Lillard, re-signed Batum, and a 1st for Rajon Rondo?

    I'd keep an eye on Cleveland. Neil is close to their GM and talked before the draft.

    Varejao would be the only possible option there, right? And if we did a lopsided trade, Cleveland's overall team salary would be at about 25 million dollars.

    Possible C targets (cheap, capable and not long term): Pachulia, Patterson, Maxiell ($5 mil); Mozgov ($3.1 mil) and Pekovic ($4.3 mil)

    That list is a joke. Pekovic is not available at all.

    Your starting center is viewed as a stop-gap.

    I would rather just start the rook over any of those guys except for Pekovic, who won't be available for cheap anyway.

    If its Patrick Patterson, he is not a Center.

    I see three centers and two PF's there.

    Not a'one is intriguing at all.

    Yeah, not at all. I'd happily take him for free, but he's no center

    What the hell happened to Patrick Patterson anyway? I remember Houston fans talking up his potential and that's the last i heard about him.

    His 'motor' just hasn't translated.

    At best, he's a lateral move from Hickson.

    He's the only slightly interesting name of the bunch realistically, and he's not even a center.

    Yeah, but if we got him for our team wouldn't you be stoked?
