I thin we'd ave to look hard at a deal for Elton - the Sixers would likely be willing to sweeten the trade, and EB would very likely regain his form here, and his health. he'd add some muscle to the front line, for sure, and after this year he's a big expiring contract.
Good bigs just aren't' all that available
And we thought Hedu's deal was tough to swallow ?
I believe we'd lose a few here to aneurysms.
EB is kind of like Hill.... he's sat more over the past 3 yrs than played. But hey... you want defense, rebounding, BBIQ ??? Reports are he's returned to camp in great shape and Collins likes him. Like I said, pickens are slim. We need not bother with this for a few months.
agreed. If/when someone comes up that's good and worth it, then look into it but it's kind of a moot point at the moment. I wouldn't be upset if we extend J-Rich. Frye can't post up, but he shoots so he'll draw a big guy up so J-Rich and score in the post, which he'll be able to do longer because it just doesn't take a ton of athleticism. If all J-Rich does is shoot 3's, come off screens and shoot, and post up, he's still a pretty versatile scorer. I'd rather have him play with Dragic though so Dragic can defend the better guard of the opposing team.
If Brand pans out to still be healthy He'd be a worth a shot, seeing how they have Speights. I'd give him half a season of staying healthy before I'd really look into it though
Edit: If we got Brand now and he turned out to be damaged goods, aneurysms would be the least of our problems. Sudden asthma attacks in people who have never had asthma, heart murmurs, and concussions (faces meet brick wall) would also occur
