The Warriors need Brand. They won't get him. Next on the list might be Okafor. Not so much offense, but a big help in other areas.

If they can't get him, then David Lee.

Next on down the list toward a realistic acquisition...Wilcox? Diop?

CJ Watson can do what is needed to fill in for Baron because Monta will have a little more experience and maturity and Bellinelli will also get some minutes with a more seasoned ability run the team. Sure, a better point guard would be great...but the team's primary needs are elsewhere. A deeper bench overall will reduce Baron's minutes. Doesn't have to be one point guard.

The critical needs are rebounding, shot-blocking and general defensive prowess. Scoring off the block would be in there but Biedrins is developing nicely, so it becomes a second tier need.

Love to get Blake. Total pro and team player. Lots of teams want him, we'd be lucky to have him as the back-up.

Gomes is available, or Craig Smith. Either one could help, but Gomes has a jumper and is about 245.

Love to get Miller, but the fact that Memphis didn't unload him probably means they want to keep him this year.

Joey Dorsey will end up being better than Arthur if you ask me. I just think he's tougher. Memphis would have been good without him, but they were great with him.

Rem mentioned Ryan Anderson. Nellie would play him right away. Same for Taj Gibson. Those guys will be late first to early 2nd rounders and Nellie would love their inside out abilities.

I'd bet anyone that either one of those guys would play more than Wright did. Not saying their better....no way...Wright's special....but we're talking about Nellie here.

If we don't get Love, Ryan Anderson is Love-Lite.

There are a bunch of late 1sts that could contribute right away.

Douglas Roberts already plays the NBA game and is missing FT's....So he'd fit in perfectly.

Resign Ellis, Beans and Buike

Draft Marreese Speights

Trade Al for Nene

Sign Duhon with part of the MLE



Biedrins/Nene
Wright/Nene/Speights
Jackson/Azubuike
Ellis/Belinelli
Davis/Ellis/Duhon

Not splashy, but solid.

What we need to do is waltz down to the 7'er store and pick up one with some nice wingspan... or we can pick one from the 7'er tree... anything to avoid dealing with pawn shops. Their 7'ers have been way overused.
