Feel for the game, intensity and strength seemed to be his weaknesses when he first went pro; I wonder how he has progressed?
Is the league minimum 14? Always thought it was 13. Guess we HAVE to bring someone on then. We'll prolly wait til training camp to figure it out.
There are quite a few decent free agents that will sign before the month is over. We’re only two weeks into free agency. Maybe Portland let’s some guys fight it out for the final spot, but I doubt it. I also doubt they’ll leave a spot open. They need a full roster because of Nurkic.
Hoard doesn’t count against the active roster. Portland will, in all likelihood, add two more players, and maybe another two way player on top of that.
Notables left that I wouldn’t mind Point Guard Jerian Grant Jeremy Lin Shaun Livingston Trey Burke Wing Thabo Sefolosha Kyle Korver Iman Shumpert Jonathon Simmons Power Forward Cheick Diallo Christian Wood Center Joakim Noah Greg Monroe Pau Gasol Dwight Howard? (hasn’t been waived yet) Grant has interest from Israel. Lin should head to Asia honestly, he’d make baaank. Guys like Korver, Livingston, and Noah probably have multiple offers and are taking their time. Gasol evidently won’t be cleared until August.
I like the list... let's pair it down a bit. One or two of these guys would be great. Point Guard Shaun Livingston Jerian Grant Trey Burke Power Forward Cheick Diallo Christian Wood
This only 10 3s attempted over the past 3 years has made me cool a bit on Livingston. I hated watching Turner take 3s so I’ll probably hate watching Livingston pass up open looks.
WE NEED JOAKIM NOAH!!!!!!!!! He played well at Memphis, he's the veteran presence that we need and he also bring toughness on D and playmaking on offense. Please Olshey sign him!!!!! (also, he can become the backup C once Nurk comes back and maybe we trade Whiteside for Love/Griffin)
Kosta Koufos would be a pretty good 3rd team center. He has the size and is willing to mix things up.
