    No, he doesn't. That changed in the last CBA (and has been mentioned in this forum countless times).

    That probably wouldn't be the worst result, but it seems unlikely given the reported Splitter trade.

    Neil needs another big play. Aminu and Monroe would be nice pickups, but he has to hit one more home run.

    What if DeRozan were available now that Carroll has gone to Toronto?

    You'd think it would have to start with Kaman and possibly CJ.

    I would do it.

    Dame/Frazier
    DeRozan/Henderson
    Aminu/Crabbe
    Leonard/Vonleh
    Monroe/Plumlee

    We would need filler, CJ is too short to be a starting two guard, and Hendo would be a fine backup.

    I'm betting Detroit would be pretty happy to take back some expirings in a sign and trade.

    We need one wing in our lineup that can at least space the floor and preferably create his own shot. We would have to give LA and/or Monroe room to work

    Could this possible signing be the clincher for Aldridge? He's taking his time to make his decision and Woj said he's going to make his decision soon.

    I think so, we land Monroe and IMO we edge out the Spurs competitiveness wise.
