    Especially with Greg Anthony bringing back the jail blazer era.

    I think a combination of expiring contracts and a pick, or two, would get us pretty much anyone over the age of 25 from either of those rosters.

    Might be too late. One move I don't know is enough. And some of these guys already look depleted.

    Just lots of injuries. We didn't have to deal with this last season. Our team is beat up.

    This. Lopez and Joel are our best interior defenders, however I'd like to see us make a trade for a proven scorer with little to no real injury issues.

    Our depth is underrated. Aldridge, Batum, Crabbe, CJ, Joel, and RoLo have all missed games and we're still on pace to win 60 games.

    Our depth right now is non existent. Our bench didn't do shit last night.

    If our depth is non existent, how have we won all these games without Lopez, Batum, and Aldridge?

    It's not just bench scoring but the players that perform as starters when there are injuries.

    We didn't start losing until we lost Joel, Lopez, and now Wes is hurt. We would not have won when LA was out without Joel. We have two key big men out, which has forced Kaman into the starting lineup. That has killed a lot of our bench scoring right there. Plus, Wes is walking wounded, I'm sure Dame is probably still playing hurt, and Nic is basically worthless. I'm not talking about depth at the beginning of the season. I'm talking about depth right now. Currently. With all these people out.

    Dorell Wright & C.J. McCollum for Wilson Chandler? I know that Denver wants a pick but I think thats pretty fair.

    Perhaps banning someone would relieve some stress.

    Stotts, need to step up, these guys are not playing basketball. I think what they currently play is, hero trying to star! Damian has missed more three point shots than he has assists in the past three games. If Nic is hurt then he should sit. Same goes for Wes.

    They need a fundamental game to fall back on when the big star play ain't happening. They don't have the fundamental game and it is sorely needed.
