I'm guessing Strawberry (b/c he can do the Shannon thing and is desperate to play in the NBA) and K Thomas or Magloire or Mutumbo or Hakeem or Kemp or Mikan or something.

Would you spend an expiring and possibly pay 3-5 millions a year on a guy that plays 9-12 freakin minutes a game?
Cause the playing time ain't gonna change that much from last year ,heck maybe we get lucky and Bynum doesn't miss that many games and plays at least 70.


We can agree to disagree, but our team will not survive on 3 bigs, where as we just spent 4 million a season on Blake and we're getting back Fisher, why pay 4 million for Ramon Sessions so he can do what Blake and Fish do only not as well?
Sessions can actually attack the rim unlike anyone on the entire roster not named Kobe. He also has a year of experience in the triangle. Yes we need shooters, but lets not avoid picking up quality players just because they're weak in one facet of the game. Especially if it improves our team the way Sessions would.

Let's take on another 12 million in contracts on for a third string PG for a SG who is on the books for his final season at 5.5 million and is a good 3 point shooter/pesky defender. You know what I decided? We keep Sasha, sign Brad Miller, Kurt Thomas or even Mbenga back and trade Luke/Caracter for a decent player with a year or two on his contract.

Fisher is done after this year and Sessions is like 23, 24 years old. Or we could just not even resign Fisher since Sessions and Blake are both better than him. Just sign T-Mac to replace Sasha.

Although at the deadline Sasha could be worth more than Sessions so I might hold onto him until then.

Honestly, i cant imagine Sessions fitting into a triangle system. And i bet that's why Wolves are willing to part ways with him. I could see him in a running system. But in a halfcourt set system, uhmm... NO. He's just going to be another Farmar I'm telling yall.

edit: Speaking of that ^^, check out wiretap heading...lol... "Wolves Shopping Sessions, Pursuing Ridnour"

I think they're trying to trade him because like you said, they want Ridnour. Ridnour is better playing off guard. Sessions was better at picking up the triangle than Flynn was last year.

I think we should save Sasha until he proves limp again next season....If he does, alot of teams would covet him at the trade deadline next season cuz of his expiring contract; and we could get a decent player for him at that time.
