    Chalmers is the only one I could find. As such, I hope the Blazers get a pick to draft GPII or McCaw

    Of course the Spurs would want him but we have more money.
    He may be in the prime of his career but is very injury prone and playing a smaller role can keep him healthy for the playoffs

    We may have more money, but they have enough money, which is all that matters.

    We can offer a double digit contract and a good situation, if he goes elsewhere, ce la vie

    But, your premise is we could get him as a cheap back up. Not happening. He won't be cheap and he won't be a back up, here, or anywhere else.

    Besides, we have bigger problems to address with our cap space than back up PG. Yeah, we need a back up PG, but we're not going to blow a significant portion of our cap space on one.

    So Lebron as our back up SF is out of the question?

    Of course not, he'd start for us. I know you're being facetious, but any upgrade at starting 3, 4 or 5 is where we should be spending our cap space, not on a backup PG.

    He isn't worth more than 10-12 mil with how much he's injury prone but could be an excellent addition to the backcourt and allow us to have 2 of Dame, CJ, Conley on the court the entire game. We could still sign another front court player

    Ok, how about this scenario:
    -Release all our free agents but Meyers, Montero, Harkless and Crabbe.
    -Sign Conley and Al Horford

    I guarantee he'll get way more than that.

    He'll have a long list of suitors: Knicks, Jazz, Nets, Pacers, Rockets, Kings, 76ers... Someone will give him $20M

    Spending money on Conley seems like the worst idea ever

    Chalmers will likely be out for much of 2016-17. He tore his achilles in March.

    You would need to release also Myers and trade Ed Davis for a draft pick and still would probably not have enough money.
