Not alot of teams will have capspace next summer but unfortunately the ones that do need an upgrade at PF like Memphis and Miami. Honestly if Koufas is your center of the future than Millsap might be a better fit at PF than Boozer.

That would be the cleaverest move IMHO. Koufos will prove he's a great player as soon as he gets minutes and Millsap is a sure bet.



It's not that clever, to me it's closer to obvious. How much salary can you have at one position? We have 5 guys who can actually play PF in Boozer, Millsap, Okur, Kirilenko and Collins. I say get rid of Boozer and Collins this year, which will save around $18-24 per year in the next 5 years.

We meed to trim our lineup to this:

Okur/Koufos
Millsap/Kirilenko
Miles/Harpring
Brewer/Korver/Almond
Williams/Knight/Price

I'd probably look at getting a combination of frontcourt players with our picks in 2009, and basically go for the best player available in 2010 or one that fits our team and needs best. I'm not to high of Fesenko. What can I say, he just doesn't seem to have much of a brain out there.
