    Anthony Tolliver anyone? It's unsexy, but he fits.

    Yeah I’m in on Wilson Chandler. Decent rebounder and can stretch the floor. Was 40% in catch and shoot situations last season. Not a bad defender, especially in the post as he’s gotten older. Fits as a four in the modern NBA. If we could get him for the minimum, I’d be all about it.

    They have Turner, Goga, Sabonis, and Leaf. I think one of them gets traded.

    They are gonna have a lot of money invested in Brogdon, Oladipo, and Turner.

    They aren’t a franchise that gets too risky with their cap either.

    They gave Brogdon, Oladipo, and Turner big contracts. They are not super max contracts though. Would not be surprised to see them sign Sabonis to an extension now.

    Jerebkos numbers look pretty intriguing. He stretches the floor (38% shooter from outside the last four years) and his rebound percentages aren’t THAT far off Aminus.

    I can't believe nobody will offer Cauley-Stein more than the minimum.

    They let Young go in order to start Sabonis next to Turner. Or at least thats what reports are saying.

    He's got the stigma of being a stats hog that doesn't play defense.

    Sounds like someone we just rehabbed....

    If we didn't have Whiteside I would say WCS would be a perfect reclamation project for us.

    No please no. Same issues as would’ve had with Moe at the four. He struggles against size but would also get killed on the boards. Hezonja is a better fit at the four.

    This probably wont be too popular, given the other options.... Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but if I remember correctly, Faried was one of those dudes that always stepped up his game when he played us. Smoke our ass at the worst possible time. I'd take him just to prevent that in the future..... Lol

    We'll see who falls through the cracks, but I would like Noah back. I think
    he's learned a lot from his time in NY. However, I hope for his sake he
    gets some long-term cheddar.
