    Great article by David Aldridge:

    The bad part is that this means that Darius's fate matters more.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My top (reasonably attainable) target is Josh Childress.

    Kobe Bryant would be great, but I see no way he leaves the Lakers.

    Seconded.

    And people I highly urge you to go over and read the piece that Dave of Blazersedge.com penned regarding the D. Miles-caproom situation. I'm not sure where national writers are getting the idea that all of our fortunes rest with Miles being on or off of our cap. We're talking about a difference of 25 million max or 16 million max (depending on Frye, Diogu, Travis and Blake being retained ... hell, even if Trav and Blake are retained we're talking about 8 million in cap room).
