    sign Bismack, good defender, shot blocker and rebounder getting better every yr, would fit well with Leonard and possibly Vonleh as is still 22 and probably can be had for MLE level or lower

    Are any teams trying to dump salary?

    Eagerly receive their dumps like a German porno.

    then go after a 22 yr old Bosmack who can be had for fairly cheap or a Kosta Koufus who IMO has more upside and is better than Freeland

    Start Vonleh.

    Start McCollum.

    Don't care about winning games; care about seeing what we can develop these dudes into.

    If we are looking outside for help, I'd trade Kaman for Taj Gibson

    I not sure why that even matters as the 5th big and max MLE money.

    I think I would go for Henson or Kofous first though.

    If only those are an option then Vonleh comes off the bench.

    That's what I would do. Give him time at both front court spots.
