    Available. Although, with how we're playing there shouldn't really be any guaranteed minutes. Don't think that happens with Nate as coach though.

    No matter how much we all bitched about Travis, dude made a lot of shots in crunch time. I would take him back, but bayless and Rudy need to be shipped out for something different first.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Oh, I see. Yeah, there would definitely have to be more moves if Outlaw were brought back. Having Bayless, Rudy, Webster, Outlaw and Cunningham would definitely be too much overlap.

    The only way I'd like Travis back is if we had a coach who wouldn't rely heavily upon him, regardless if he is having a good or bad night. But mostly I'd still prefer Dante as he is now and a more experienced Dante more definitely.

    13 ppg, 32% FG for the series. Missed 4 shots in the last 1:30 of the Hawk meltdown tonight, shot 4-18 overall for the game.

    Crawford's shooting 40.9% for his career. If I wanted a career 41% shooter, I'd just re-sign Outlaw; he's at least friends with everyone.

    Drop Rudy, Webster, Howard....

    Pick up Trout.

    Play Trout at backup 4
    Play Bayless at backup 2 / 1
    play Dante at backup 3

    Continue to develop mills, pendy, dante, and oden.

    If I had to take a guess, Travis is about to get his last NBA contract this year.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'm with you, except I'd play Outlaw at the backup 3, and have Oden, Aldridge and Camby soak up all the non-garbage time minutes at 4/5.

    Let Pendergraph, Cunningham and Mills develop in practice, garbage time and soak up time lost by injured players.

    And hopefully by "drop," you mean trade. I wouldn't be in favour of just cutting Rudy and Webster. Howard can be let go as a free agent.
