    "There was no commiserate player to replace Aldridge. There were a number of teams chasing him with no other real option. They did try to recruit Greg Monroe. Greg fit both models either if LA returned or left.

    Neil mentions Meyers and CJ with Dame.

    Clearly the core (as identified by management) going forward is those three.

    If Meyers does not start next year I will be IMMENSELY surprised.

    "A lot of the success was based on chemistry." So not having all of them back affected bringing back the others.

    "What would lead us to believe that losing LaMarcus left us one quick fix away?"

    The starters were an all-or-nothing resign scenario. If LA left, they weren't going to resign any of them.

    Using cap room more for flexibility rather than just brute force buying power. Nice.
