I'd love to get him. He could take the Livingston role.

I’d like to get Dunn. I think he and Poole would be a good combo off the bench.

I'll take Payton only if he agrees to cut that hair shelf off his head. Or did he already?

He has short hair the last few years I think. I'm cool on Payton though, or "Wish Paul" as I call him.

Unfortunately he’s only 6’3” so he’d be a cook or bowman replacement and I think he’s way better than those two

Joe Harris, Marc Gasol, Avery Bradely- three solid options right there. I'd shoot for Joe Harris either starting at SF or coming off the bench.

I don’t think you can use it on a free agent.

And I think the player can only have one year left on their deal.

PJ Tucker fits the criteria I think.

Derrick Rose might fit. Not sure if he has two years or one left.

I read it could be used for Free Agent or Trade.

Or a waiver claim.

Thanks guys, glad to be wrong.

Just listened to Bob Myers. The injured exception is definitely in the mix.

It's not all about height. Payton has a 6'7" wingspan so he'll play a little longer than 6'3" ... marcus smart's wingspan is 6'8" and he guards way above his size.

It's more about intelligence and effort.

There's a ton of "decent" wings out there

Lin, Bazemore, and Holiday return?

I suspect other teams will be pissed if the Warriors get Oubre and Harris. That would be nice.

yeah, I was listening too and was happy to hear they are ranking available free agents to pursue and won't stop at using the TPE. They are working to give the fans something to cheer about. We fans are lucky to have an ownership group who are committed to winning and spare no expense.

I could be wrong but I think we can trade for a longer term contract with the DPE, but we can definitely only sign a player for 1 year.

Onus · Post #1317 » by **Onus** » Fri Nov 20, 2020 2:16 am

There aren't a lot of shooters in free agency Bertans, Danilo, Joe Harris being the best but they're probably taking more than the dpe. After that it's marcus morris and bogdan but I'm assuming they'll be out of our price range as well. Anyone else?

Commodor · Post #1318 » by **Commodor** » Fri Nov 20, 2020 2:34 am

Speaking of waived knicks, Taj Gibson could be a nice bench stabilizer. Similar to David West a few years back.

Wouldn’t want to dish out more than the min though.

Don't suppose there were any undrafted guys that shot around 80% from deep ?

We really need some shooting

Markus Howard and Killian Tillie were good shooters but they've already signed with another team
