We still need a light out shooter we still have 5 mill in cap space but I hope joe goes the trade route because our guards is not all that

whats some guards/shooters out there that's on the trade block

Luke Ridnour is on the block, but he would be the 4th PG on the team (if Siva gets signed).

It's not the trade season quite yet.

Wayne Ellington has been linked to the Pistons and a few other teams recently....

Would love to get Fournier from Denver....but with Iggy leaving, that might prove to be a tall task.

Courtney Lee from Boston is a possibility.

Afflalo?

If we're adding free agents we're going to have to cut some guys. Either english or siva will have to be cut.

Stuckey/Singler for Reggie Jackson. Get it done Joe!

The bynum deal is a strange one to me. In isolation, it's not a bad contract, but the fit with the team is strange.
I have a feeling, or maybe it's just a hope, that there's a bigger deal in the works.
CV and Stuckey maybe on the move...

Im hoping we trade charlie and stuckey, if we are serious about winning now and trying to be competetive then I don't want these 2 anywhere near this team.

There has to be more deals. Our biggest problem last year was PG play. I don't see how you can bring back the same PG core minus the best guy in Calderon, and expect to be all set at that position. Knight could do a complete 180 but as a GM needing to win to keep his job, its hard to see him just putting eveything on Knight suddenly getting it. Plus, Bynum is a great backup, but he can't be a starter if Knight starts having the same problems and starts costing us games. We need a legit veteran PG. I really hope Chauncey will agree to come back. There doesn't seem to be any other interest from other teams and we can offer a starting spot. Just Knight an Bynum aren't going to get it done if we want to make the playoffs.

Honestly if we have 5 mil left I'd give it all to Chauncey on a 2 yr deal. He gives us a legit starting PG and also a legit starting SG should Knight figure it out at point. Add in the leadership intangibles and thats worth 5 mil to me.

You really believe PG play was this team's biggest problem? Even Knight's biggest detractors don't believe that.

Hopefully Stuckey is on the move, I mean Joe can't seriously think that Knight/Stuck/Bynum will work this season when it failed miserably last season.

As for moving CV, I think he will be solid on this team for 15 minutes to spread the floor for Andre. Stuckey has to go though.

I think a Jerebko for Lee works for both sides. Saves Boston money and gets them a younger player while Detroit gets a guy who could be our starting SG.

Khris Middleton next to go he does not fit the team anymore.

dan2314 · Post #13 » by **dan2314** » Fri Jul 12, 2013 12:06 pm

what? we have enough guards/wings for now. if anything, its an insurance or possibly backup, big man, particularly center.

kellmellus50 · Post #14 » by **kellmellus50** » Fri Jul 12, 2013 12:15 pm

We need to trade Kris or Singler for a pick downsize the roster.

Any further moves have to come from trades I think. We need to get rid of players to get them. Hopefully CV's expiring + one of our young fillers can entice someone who needs to dump salary.

Khris has too much upside and shooting ability to just give up when your term is in need of shooters. If anything Singler can go.

I think Joe will make one more trade.
