Plan B

[clippermitch]

It looks like "The King" will be going to Miami.

Now we can finally move on. Our biggest need is SF and we need to fill this need quick.

Trade for Ariza ($5M), resign Butler or Outlaw ($4M) and Smith ($4M), and sign JJ Redick ($5M) and Livingston ($1M).

PG - BD/Bledsoe/Livingston
SG - EG/Redick/Warren
SF - Ariza/Aminu/Butler
PF - BG/Smith/SOFO
C - Kaman/Jordan

This leaves 1 roster spot. Probably need another PF/C for the veteran's minumum.

I think this team can definitely make the playoffs.

That's definitely not a playoff team in the West. Plus, why would you pay Butler/Outlaw 4 million to be the 3rd string SF.

Outlaw just signed for $7 freaking million a year from New Jersey for 5 years. Something tells me Rasual will be that price now too, as well as Miller (at least) and any other FA we want. Our best plan B bet is to try to work out a trade for the likes of Igoudala or Prince if possible (since Deng will be out with Lebron not going to Chicago.)
