    They cut off my favorite part where he says, "We got a youthier player within Zach Randolph"

    Thank you. Was thinking RealGM was not so busy and looking for something busier. Looks like the place to be :)

    If Meyers is expected to get a big offer, I certainly wouldn't mind replacing him with a more experienced version of him, and picking up a draft pick to boot. Neil's already pursued Hawes once. This seems like exactly the kind of move we should be making.

    That'd be a terrific move. Hawes is on $5.6M a year so hardly a staggering sum.

    Hawes and Monroe...

    Rejected Portland and now their teams can't wait to get rid of them.

    How large is Lamb's contract? He is the better player over Hawes. We do need a big more than SG/SF but only if that guy would have serious rotation minutes. Not sure Hawes would.

    Again bringing into question Neil's track record in free agency.

    Too big (21 mil) and long (3yrs) to swallow for just the 22nd pick.

    Hawes' contract is a lot more palatable. About 12 mil for 2 yrs, and last year is player option.

    IMO Lamb is a very serviceable rotation player and in the new NBA salary madness that's a very cheap contract

    Not with CJ/AC/Moe/Aminu already on the roster. Where would he even get minutes?

    Well they don't need two of them at the same time. They got a shooting guard in Booker, huge talent.
