76ers/Wolves + Free agency plans...
Posted: Wed Dec 17, 2008 4:41 pm
So the post about us signing 2 free agents, and a trade proposed by a Philly fan got me thinking...
76ers out - Andre Miller, Jason Smith, Donyell Marshall, and Philly's 2009 1st.
Wolves out - Mike Miller, Rashad McCants, Craig Smith, Boston and Utah's 1st round picks.
Wolves this year:
C - Jefferson/Collins
PF - Love/Marshall
SF - Gomes/Cardinal
SG - Foye/Carney
PG - Miller/Telfair/Ollie
I'll admit, we're ugly this year, but maybe Miller helps get us into the offense faster like McHal wants.
76ers get younger, better shooting, and a good force downlow who's protected by Brand and Dalembert on defense.
Wolves let Miller expire.
Draft:
Wolves pick - Thabeet
76ers pick - DeRozan
Heat pick - Budinger (I had to, plus he's Mike Miller junior) - Collison, Lawson, or Mills might be a better pick.
We're left with 15-18mil to spend after the trade and draft picks being signed. We sign Marvin Williams to 12mil per year. His age fits with the rest of our team.
Next year Wolves:
C - Thabeet/Smith
PF - Jefferson/Love
SF - Williams/Gomes/(Budinger)
SG - DeRozan/Brewer
PG - Foye/Telfair/(Collison/Mills/Lawson)
Then in the 2010 offseason we're still sitting on roughly 13mil to bring in another free agent. We have the dynamic wing players who can get to the cup. The defensive presence in the middle. The low post offensive force. The versatile forward who can play inside or outside. Just need a coach and a front office to not screw it up.
