    In no particular order
    Pek
    ZaZa
    R. Lopez
    Bynum
    Splitter
    Asik
    Kaman

    Some others have been touched on, but these are the ones that mostly have been talked about within the past couple days.

    Assume we are able to get the player for cap space and Freeland and a future pic. All players cost the same. What would be your order?

    has he been included in any actual NBA scuttlebutt, or is he just someone talked about on this forum? All the other players have been mentioned in rumors somewhere.

    Bynum (with new knee info and no working out for teams) - stay away from like Nuclear Ebola

    Pek- Priced ourselves out, not super-excited anyway
    Splitter - Priced ourselves out, interested b/c of his great P&R D.

    ZaZa - meh.
    Kaman - meh.

    Lopez - interesting
    Asik- would take assets, but interesting.

    Jermaine. Interesting at the Room Exception or less.

    Edit: Nevermind. Didn't read the last sentence. Will re-do.

    If healthy, absolutely; but he's refusing to even work out for teams. Big fucking red flag man.

    I'll take a 2 year risk, having a chance at the title/contending/keeping Aldridge, over rebuilding when 10 other teams are trying to tank as well.

    Bynum IF healthy, immediately makes us elite.

    100% agree. But that's a huge IF man.

    It's tough to say they all cost the same, when some are free agents, and others are traded for. If we traded Freeland for Robin, we'd still have around 7 million in cap space. So Robin only costs a little over 2 million. Obviously, we can not sign Pek for 2 million.

    Are you going to sign Roy, also? Because if his knees were healthy--watch out!
