If this team could land Millsap and move TJones to the bench, then reaching the WCF suddenly becomes realistic.

When Bev returns I think we are fine at the point. The warriors game was a bad example, even though it was winnable. McHale obviously didn't have a plan of attack with Dwight out and it made our guards look bad (including Harden). The plan for a game should not ever be "here the ball James go try to win".

Anyone else sick of national media drooling over the Warriors? They really aren't that special. Klay is a whinny b!tch, Bogut will get injured and be irrelevant, Lee doesn't do anything great, Curry is good but can be countered with aggressive defense....etc etc.


my only concern with bev are injuries...with the way he plays...he seems very likely to have recurring injuries...but either dragic or milsap would be great.

ATL would probably want Jones in return for Millsap. We don't have a lot of tradeable assets and the Hawks are going to want something for him.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

That's mostly just his youth. It's actually annoying how little respect he gets because he doesn't have a big name yet. Jones gives double doubles all the time and is generally very active. I also really like how he works with Howard.

Sure Millsap is a nice player but I don't think he makes Houston that much better than Jones, if at all. Outside a bit more consistency, he doesn't add anything that special.

No way I'm giving up Jones for Millsap.

Bev will also be a free agent after this season. Injury concerns might make it cheaper to re-sign him. Like how Steph Curry and Kyle Lowry were locked into value contracts due to injury concerns. So even if you decide to upgrade at PG later, you would be able to have Bev as backup long term on a value contract due to injury concerns during free agency. And if he outplays that contract, he can become trade bait like Lowry was to get the trade chip that turned into Harden. But then again, the market for primiarily defensive or 3&D roleplayer PGs isn't as high as for more offensive oriented PGs (and Bev is no Curry or Lowry), so it's questionable how much of a savings injury concerns might net you on Bev's free agent contract this coming summer.
