Three point shooting

With Foye and Miller gone, we have very little...in fact Ryan Gomes is probably our best 3pt shooter right now.

Who can we target along with Rubio or Evans or whoever we are going for at the top of the 1st to fix this as none of our primary top targets seem to be shooters (Rubio, Thabeet, Evans).

My guess is Wayne Ellington. We worked him out twice. Once today and once in a group work out with Tyler Smith, Sam Young, Derrick Brown, Jeff Pendergraph, and Chase Budinger. Could be a smoke screen, though. Curry at the top? Probably wouldn't fit well with our other top 10 pick.

Maybe somebody through a trade?

Reggie Miller.

We've still got Brian Cardinal and Mark Madsen. Mark Blount anyone?

Maybe the Jazz would do a Korver(if he doesn't opt out) for Thomas trade if Boozer or Milsap are signed by another team.

Antonie Walker?

He can be the shooting guard in my lineup above. Now we need a point guard.

isn't Taylor a good outside shooter? He'd probably be there at 28.
Danny Green?

Perhaps Terrance Williams if we trade the 18/28 for the 11.

Troy Hudson of course!

did kevin love really write what you have in your sig?...if so, that's embarassing assuming he means Jennings...of course the only alternative "brandon" in this draft is Brandon Costner, which is even more embarassing, though at least he's a forward of sorts.

Do you think he'd come back again? He already came back once in '96 with the Hawks.

Yeah, but there was more to it. The big thing was that he called Harden a "3"
I should probably revise my sig some. This trade stuff has my head spinning though.

Jodie Meeks in round 2.

...and why would DeMar DeRozan be off the board?...None of what he said really makes sense outside of needing a 3.

^He had to do a mock and pick for the Wolves. DeRozan was picked before 6.

Oh, I get it...and he wasn't saying Jennings was a 3, he was saying that the best 3's were off the board (and mislabeled Harden as a 3) so instead he would take Jennings.

It took me a while to get that one. Be patient with me, I'm from North Dakota. You city slickers, always trying to pull the wool over my eyes.

There is a thread about it. http://www.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=916680

I'm from Wisconsin, hardly a city slicker.

well to be fair, though...North Dakota. come on...I guess technically Fargo is the biggest "city" North Dakota, but that's like being the best player on the Clippers. It doesn't really count.
