Who should we go after right now. Personally I'm all for a small name FA. Right now guys topping my list are Reggie Evans, JYD, and Fred Hoiberg. Evans would really help the Warriors front line on rebounding and on D. We might have to trade Murphy though, that would not be a good idea I think, but if we shipped Foyle and had Murphy start C, then maybe Evans could start, but that could a problem. JYD, Jerome Williams is cheap and is a good player. He could come off of the bench and provide us some points in the paint and some rebounding. Hoiberg is a high risk, high reward guy right now with his heart problem that he has, but if he recovers in good time, Hoiberg could be a great player for the Warriors getting some threes off of the bench, but another big problem with him would be he would taje some minutes from MP2 and you all know how much we need MP2. So what are FA's you guys would like to obtain?
I wouldn't mind getting a small name PG as insurancce for injuries or if Mullin dumps Fisher, maybe some guys like Travis Best or perhaps we can get Vonteego Cummings or Derrick Zimmerman back. I would also like to get Hoiberg if he replaces Cheany but I dont see that happening and there is no room for him otherwise. If we are going to get some C/PFs I would like to get a defensive minded veteran who isnt undersized such as Keon Clark, Ervin Johnson, or maybe Calvin Booth.

He's a solid PG won't demand money.

Well we're at 13 on our roster, but I agree with WFSN93 that we probably need an FA center in case we suffer massive injuries to either Biedrins, Foyle or Murphy. I don't think we can get away with playing Diogu at PF or Zarko at C for too long. We're probably fine where we're at... maybe an athletic, defensive small forward that can actually defend players 6'8, 230 lbs and can stand around and shoot... for cheap. Maybe Jawad Williams or Eddie Robinson (if he's somewhat healthy) or that guy named Chris Jeffries who got waived from the Wizards. Just pure defensive role player.

This offseason for us is so boring because we're pretty much set as we can be. Maybe we don't even need another center. Even Chris Taft can play a little bit of center. It looks like his true position for now since he's got zero range much like Biedirns. The difference between Erick Dampier's 6'11 265 lbs and Taft's 6'10 260 is one inch and 5 lbs. It's like who cares, throw the guy in at center and use him against power forwards while Zarko/Diogu/Murphy drop bombs from the perimeter. Or we can throw in Biedrins at PF/C or Taft at PF/C and throw in some catch and shoot guys that can function as dribble penetrators. Ellis might even get some action since he does really well taking his defender off the dribble and hitting the 3 ball. All I can say is, I'm really liking Mullin's drafts even if Green wasn't included. Diogu is a pretty decent all around player and he's strong, coordinated and unselfish.
I'd probably look at Pargo,he happened to play very well in a Bulls playoff game I saw-would cover us if a short notice D Fish deal came up later on. I agree with at least one of Custodian's posts on this,the one that says we have a lot of depth and flexibility. Unless Zarko got beefy,a lot of C minutes isn't good,but I actually see Ike getting about half the action at PF,scoring in double figures for the year. I'm expecting 3 guys to share the C role

We need to trade Fisher S&T for Watson, or we need to trade Fisher for a TE or 2nd rounder and pick up Watson for the MLE
I'd rather have Randy Watson then Fisher + Contract. Maybe we can have him play up on the stage in the Arena. Randy Watson
