    Meh, I'm not thrilled. Also, I don't like dealing with Thorn. He re-traded us on SAR, he'll retrade us on this.

    Is a RLEC for McGrady swap too risky? Since we're not losing any active players, it wouldn't derail us when he goes down with his assorted injuries during the year. But when healthy, he's still a pretty amazing guy to have at the SF spot.

    I wouldn't mind doing Carter/Williams for RLEC/Outlaw/Sergio/Frye. I'd rather gie Williams a shot at backup PF than anyone on the current roster. Hurts to lose Outlaw, but Carter's obviously a big improvement. Losing Sergio consolidates PG. If you add in Hassel, then we have a bit of insurance in case Blake or Bayless are out, and Hassel's contract is just a player option next year.

    EDIT: Crap, forgot about Williams' off-court stuff.
