    Let's not forget the salary cap that could be tricky for Golden State to maneuver. Playas wanna be paid...

    Agree that I don't see Cousins playing the 4... Overall, at present I think he is the best two way center around. Jordan is better defensively but can't score 10 points alone by himself in a gym without resorting to dunks and put-backs.

    Yes please. Plug and play for defensive purposes along side Calderón. Also gives us more trade throw in options to sweeten the pot for any trades.

    Thabo would be an awesome fit with this squad.

    ...I was saying Hawes too as a reserve 5. Then the Zu happened.

    i've been on both hawes and sefalosha since day one. even with zu, i think having a big off the bench who can shoot a little is useful. wonder if charlotte would take nick young in exchange?

    i don't see atlanta dumping sefalosha; i was just hopeful. his contract is too small to really care about, and they'll use him behind both korver and bazemore.

    Things will heat up within the next two months, teams will start getting more pressure to put together a better team before pre-season rolls around. Everybody is going to want top value right now, a lot of teams are going to bluff...until pre-season or the regular season is around the corner and they realize this or that player isnt part of our future, nor im gonna pray that they re-sign with us.

    Id love me some Blake Griffin next year doe, I like/love his game and hes exciting to watch. Him and Westbrook would make a GREAT tandem and wed be effing stacked if they both outright sign.

    I say cut brown and shoot lance stephenson a vet min contract.....i think deng is a big enough vet presence to get him in line and nothing better for your career to play in la and stat pad and get paid like meeks did under mda. If hes a nut just cut him, we still have young as a potential backup 3 anyway

    I'd like to cut Young and pre-cut Stephenson.
