Filling out the roster

[Denny Crane]

How about using this thread for ideas on players to go after to fill out the roster?

I'll start with JR Smith. Free agent. Won't cost more then about MLE money. Can start or backup. Gets you a 6MOY candidate who can shoot the 3 ball.

If Lamarcus stays I like the idea of going hard after Monroe and Aminu. Either that or over pay for Demarre Carroll.

 

[Denny Crane]

FA small forwards:
1) LeBron
2) Kawhi Leonard
3) Draymond Green
(I don't think any of those guys are gettable)
4) Tobias Harris - 17.1 PPG/6.3 RPG
5) DeMarre Carroll - 12.6 PPG / 5.3 RPG
6) Luol Deng - 14.0 PPG / 5.2 RPG
7) Paul Pierce - 11.9 PPG / 4.0 RPG
8) Corey Brewer - 11.5 PPG / 3.7 RPG
9) Jae Crowder - 7.7 PPG / 3.6 RPG
10) Mike Dunleavy Jr. - 9.4 PPG / 3.9 RPG

Can take a chance on someone like Glenn Robinson III

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

DeMarre Carroll | Gerald Green | Jae Crowder | kJ McDaniels | Jared Dudley | Sergio Rodriguez

If LA bolts, kick the tires at least: Kevin Love | Draymond Green

I like the idea of saving enough room for next year to go after Durant.

If its just lillard, lma, 3rd max on the books, they might be able to squeeze another max in?

I think JR is a bit too streaky for my taste. But he is cheap. Don't know if attitude and character is as important now as it was a couple years ago

Deng is great two ways

I actually think Deng would be a fine addition for a mid level type contract. Not MLE, but around 7-10 mil per

 

[speeds]

Deng for ten or less is a good deal.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

I'd be happy if we got deng or carrol, lma, and Tyson Chandler to sign.

 

[PDXFonz]

Danny Green would be a nice acquisition at the 2.

Danny Green would be a nice acquisition at the 2.

If we pulled off Green, Beverly or Sergio and Chandler offseason, it would be a home run off season. Not to mention Plumlee and Noah too?!?!

Using the cap for lopsided trades....

I would love to see us grab Boogie for cap space and potential.

 

[Natebishop3]

Chandler is old. I don't want to waste cap space on a guy that's going to be out of the league in a few years. We have a real chance to add another piece to go with Dame and LA. Whether that's Jordan or whoever.

We don't really even need to sign two max guys. If we use our capspace right to sign a bunch of good role players.

43 million

20 million for LMA/Love
10 million for Green/Matthews
8 million for Caroll
5 million for Beverly/Sergio

Dame/Bev
Green/CJ
Carroll/Hendo
LMA/Meyers
Plumlee/Vonleh

Solid.

Have you been following Olshey? He is like the composite of all the elements Olshey rejects.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I would be kind of interested in REALLY going after Draymond Green. The Warriors will almost certainly match, and keep us waiting to the last minute to do so, but we could make it a really nasty contract and hope that they blink, like the Knicks with Lin.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Also, Khris Middleton, although I worry that his gaudy DRPM numbers are a side-effect of Milwaukee's system, because a lot of Bucks score highly.

They want everything under the sun. Im not sure we have enough pieces, especially picks.

Absolutely NO, we cannot waste time waiting for 3 days for a rejection when other realistic players we can get agree with other teams, that would be dumb to do

My only fear would be how it could hold us up on important deals. I think Olshey's plan doesn't include any restricted players. I think he's going after players that can either sign without question or be traded for with lopsided deals

 

[Wheels]

wait Sergio Rodriguez is in play somewhere? I've long been of the opinion that Nate ruined him and Rudy with his "system"

What you want and what you get are two separate things.

Solid.

I am also wondering if we go this route to an extent, Spurs win with an excellent bench, I this we could do a center by committee approach, maybe sign one more PF/C type like Ed Davis or Jordan Hill or someone else you guys can come up with, I am thinking perhaps our biggest money is spent at SF, we see

Rumor has it he wants to come back in the nba. He is currently playing in the Spanish national team.

 

[magnifier661]

Would you guys shit if Olshey obtained Sergio because we are getting Marc Gasol? I know I dream big!

 

[KeepOnRollin]

He wants to come back according to reports but is comfortable over there (I think his GF is having a baby?) so speculation is it would take 5-6 MIL a year on average to get him over that. I would love to have him back but I don't see us spending near that much on a backup PG. Olshey hinted that CJ might be our backup PG last night.

he's also killing it with Real Madrid, one of the better non NBA clubs. I just had no idea there were those rumors thanks. Not sure he would want to come back here though, but who knows.
