    Don't be silly. OKC would HAVE to throw in a draft pick.

    ones gettin old with bad knees and still wants and will likely get big money, the other is coming off one of the worst injuries a Bball player can get and wants to get paid, frankly I do not want either and it's a waste of time discussing Wade

    Not to mention we don't even know if Wes is even coming back. Hell the Blazers might have a totally different lineup next year without Aldridge/Batum/Wes and maybe even Rolo.

    Yes, but Wade would never play in Portland, if he leaves Miami he is going to Chicago or Dallas.

    You do realize that just because someone on here pulled that out of their ass, that doesnt make it an actual rumor, right?

    According to my sources, Wes is going to play basketball with Rudy and Sergio on Real Madrid in Spain. That's it, it's a rumor on the internet now.

    Obviously pipe dreams: Marc Gasol, Jimmy Butler, Kawhi Leonard
    Pipe dream (we just don't know it yet): Khris Middleton, DeMarre Carroll, Kosta Koufos
    Possibly gettable: Brandan Wright, Amir Johnson, Jae Crowder, Bismack Biyombo
    Bargain Basement:
    Jared Dudley (always liked him, loved his interview, surprisingly good rpm, and if the Bucks are keeping Middleton along with Giannis and Jabari Parker, they won't want to spend on ANOTHER wing)
    Jeffery Taylor (the domestic violence conviction is offputting. If it weren't for that I'd be keen: he's an athletic 3-and-D wing)
    Jonas Jerebko (another Swede. Had a great rookie year with Detroit, then injuries derailed things, but got back on track with Boston. A stretch PF who can guard slower SFs. Rebounds AND shoots 3s at a 40% clip)
    CJ Watson (already 31, but has got to be better than Blake, and also shoots 40% from 3.)

    Also open to Aminu, but unlike the ones listed, he's a poor 3 point shooter, even though he takes a lot.

    If I had to pick one of my Bargains, it would be Jerebko, because he has a surprisingly high rpm. He's 14th in the league for PFs (above Pau Gasol and Kenneth Faried):

    Jarrett Jack and Jared Dudley would be awesome and cheap. Maybe we could get both for our full MLE? It would give us at least a top 10 NBA bench.

    Jack/CJ/Dudley/Leonard/Kaman

    I'd love Jack and Dudley. However, Kaman is just eating into Leonard's minutes at this point imo.

    True heres what I think we do if we keep our big man rotation intact

    PF Aldridge(34)/Leonard(21)
    C Lopez(26)/Kaman(15)

    What do you think?
