    Why not offer the Bucks Patterson and Reef for van Horn and Mason?
    and why not even offer Reef for Keith Van Horn alone or with Heislip?

    Those trades sounds great to me when Reef wants out so bad and we still need a scorer.

    But Redd or Allen are not avilable and from what i know Van horn contract ends when reef's contract is over isnt?

    im just sayin' that shareef wants to go anyway,why not make something of it?

    Bringing in KVH wouldn't solve the problem, which is that we have three forwards (all starter quality) battling for two spots.

    As much as I love DA, we need a more consistant shooting guard.

    You are just agreeing with me right there...Miles can play @ SG and Van Horn at Sf will have the shooting ability of a SG.

    John Nash basicly brought shareef in order to wait until his contract will run out,I think that KVH can be a nice replacement - especially if we can get rid of Patterson and bring D.Mason in the process.

    first, from Realgm trade check, Keith Van Horn has one more year of contract then Shareef, which is not good. Plus he gets paid more than Shareef. If i have a choice of giving Shareef 14 and Keith at 15, i would give Shareef a better player and saves a million. But i like this idea of Miles playing SG on defense (because Keith play defense like a girl), and SF at offense. This will give us a much taller starting lineup at the same time not getting out quick on the defensive end. As for Allen and Redd, with Damon and Shareef expiring with 28 million, and we can have some cap flexibity to sign guys like Ray and Redd.

    HAHAH, that made me laugh [​IMG]. But it is true. I dont see Darius being a consistent SG. I also do not like Van Horn at all. But thats just me =X

    (sorry to bring up an old post, but theres not many other so I didnt think it would make a difference)

    Miles shoots a career 12% beyond the arc and doesn't have a mid range game either. He can't play the SG.
