We can throw many names to the board for discussion and agree or disagree on any of them but some of you need to understand the reality of this exception.

The purpose of this is not to get an A-list player. This is assigned when something terrible has happened and Plan B, Plan C and more are out the window. This is meant for adding a desperation fill-in for the remainder of the season.

A niche player who fill one need off the bench sounds about right.

I read a report that less than 30% of disabled player exceptions actually ever get used because of how restrictive they are. Expectations should be kept low.

I wouldn’t know any possibilities player wise, I’ll let you guys more in the know on contracts and such speculate on that. But I do think a forward that’s a shooter would make the most sense. A guy like Bertans or Saric certainly could help this team.
You look confused...let me fill you in.

Final year at $3.48M.
I'd go for this. We need shooting badly.

I just checked that list very closely...I was wondering how many of these players panned out and are producing for their current teams....lol like 80-90% guys of that list are already out of the league or totally irrevelant
Some players like Gallinari are still hot names and rest are meh bad like Aminu.
That is one shtty poor shortlist.
