Once Paul and Capela are healthy, I think we'll go back to owning their asses.

Yeah. If he accepts a reduced role to mid 20 minutes per game, I think he'll be a great fit. Brings toughness and can stretch the floor.

We need someone like Josh Smith on this roster imo.

Just said house was and “effective player off the bench”...he was our starter

Can we get him back and sign Morris? Shump off the bench behind house

he was on the bench before Gordon got hurt

we can stay out of luxury tax zone by signing one veteran minimum (because not all count against the cap) and wait till the possible last day to convert House
then hope Capela doesn't get his bonuses

biggest question now is he healthy enough to play

i like to move Gordon back to bench

C - Capela, Faried
PF - Tucker, Morris
SF - House, Shumpert
SG - Harden, Gordon
PG - Paul

Rivers and Green will see their min cut
