    Agreed. I might max him if I have to.

    Parsons first though. Parsons strikes me as a guy who can draw other guys in.

    Man. I wanted no part of of Harrison Barnes on a max deal going into free agency. Now I feel like we need to snag him just for the prestige.

    Biyombo and Parsons would be a GREAT start. This is after all of us got hit with a reality check of course, we aren't getting much better than those two.

    The rule is no contact before the FA period. Some front office and agents are jumping the gun. Teams like Dallas should be penalized.

    Going to bed. Hope tomorrow brings us the Killer Bs for Luke's 10 man rotation.

    Batum, Biyombo, and Bazemore. JC would be the first guard off the bench. We trade/dump Nick and Lou. Let JR, Nance, Batum, and Ingram play all the forward mins, with perhaps JR or Nance playing a few mins at the 5 in small ball sets.

    Go ahead. Call me kawaaazeee.

    I am fine with it. With what we've been subjected to the last three years and even today all the dejecting reports we need to get someone or someone's. We can't just go into the season with what we already have without some proven established players.

    Whiteside/Horford & Derozan/Deng was my best case scenario.. More realistically, Biyombo/Noah & Parsons/Anderson..
    If we happen to land Biyombo & Parsons, we've had a Very Successful offseason for a team in our position..

    I wouldn't go that far. The future is already solidified with Ingram, Russell, Randle, and JC. What's at stake is the present and being able to field a competive team next season.

    That's true, and something I didn't consider. Most of the time I see Tom is during the draft.

    While I agree, I looked at these next few years as pivotal because we have all this young talent on their rookie deals. Lets say we did sign a max player or so and then those young players pan out, thats sort of when we get put over the top. If we keep missing in FA, most of our cap will devoted to just them if they pan out.

    They live in other parts of the world.

    Sorry if you were just being sarcastic.
