I probably brought it up already in this thread but I want them to go after AK47 assuming he won't still be under contract overseas. I think he would be a great fit with Love, Pek, and the team in general.

Kirilenko is a great fit next Love & Pek. But he's turning 31 in a few days. I'm not sure how his athletic ability will last in his 30's. I wouldn't offer him more than 3 years and 18 mil.

I think that would be more then enough for him really. Wasn't he going to sign with SAC for fairly cheap?

I'd be cool with him, he would instantly be the starter at SF and his defense would be a welcome addition. Then he plays PF even better then SF so he could slide to the 4 with Pek or Love at center.


My main targets are Batum / Wilson Chandler / Gordon. I'd be okay with someone like George Hill / OJ Mayo / Rudy Fernandez / Lou Williams(assuming he opts out).

What about Brandon Rush? This guy has been a great 3pt shooter through out his career. He's athletic and a good defender. He's also had weed issues like Beas before. Not sure what's up with it at the moment. He shouldn't be too expensive although he must be RFA

I wouldn't mind Rush. He's not a long-term starter but he's shooting 50% for the season so far (and over 50% from 3 pt).

He's a good long range shooter and a good defender. He's better than Wes in those elements so he's an upgrade.

It would really depend on how much he wanted and who the Wolves got rid of. I'm kind of "meh" on him.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.
