Howard (36), Allen (12)

We still need another big. Someone that can step in for Dwight and give us a solid 10-15 minutes a night. I'm not sure if Malik is that guy.



Looks good to me, except I'd still like to see a Battie or Gooden or J Foster addition .


I really like that rotation. Very versatile and instant offense from what were our weak spots.
I'm not worried about defense because that's something SVG is a master at, and I'm sure that we'll still be one of the best teams in the league on that.
Now we only need to trade Duhon and Q for a backup big (J Foster as you suggested would be perfect!).

Hedo will most likely look better than he has over the last 2 years but he won't be the Hedo that we once had in the NBA Finals. The good news is that our roster allows Hedo to have the ball in his hands more than he was able to in Toronto & Phx, and that is when Hedo plays well.

The good news is that we went from having Vince Carter, a guy who was brought because he was supposed to be able to create his own shots and finish the 4th quarters for us...and just simply could not...will be gone and we bring in Gilbert & Hedo, two guys capable of getting their own shot and creating for others. Both are also very capable closers.


i have been trying to say this for weeks but attacked for being a "vc hater".

How people continue to say that Jameer would be coming off the bench here even though Stan himself said that Jameer is NOT coming off the bench is mind boggling.

If Nelson isn't coming off the bench, then Hedo should. Not unless we are playing him at the PF which would just make me vomit.

Either you go:

PG Nelson
SG Arenas
SF Richardson
PF Bass
C Howard

or

PG Arenas
SG Richardson
SF Turkoglu
PF Bass
C Howard

I wonder if Christian Leibert is having second thoughts.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

and the fact that these same posters keep repeating the same line up over and over and over again. it's getting a bit redundant.

Dr3 is creaming his pants right now.

I love the trades. For pone, is shows that Otis isnt sitting on his hands.

Lewis for Arenas: Both are bad contracts the difference is that Gilbert actually has something to contribute to the team. Like everyone else has already stated, defense will be a concern with Gil and Jameer starting.

Marcin, Peaches, VC for Hedo, Richardson, Clark: I like the move to bring Hedo back only because we got a scoring wing in JRich as well. I dont know much about Earl Clark but he's young and could still develop. I think he plays both forward positions and can hit the occasional three. Good size for a combo forward imo

Pretty much the real two viable options, let's see which works the best in game situations :)

Stan said Turk will see some minutes at the 4 when they decide to go small. But other than that it looks like Bass/Anderson will be taking over (FINALLY) at PF.

I honestly see Turk becoming the 6th man once again for us. He's the guy that can create for the 2nd unit.

you should target kwame brown.

just about the only available center for what you have to offer.

orton for brown
duhon/allen for brown/najera

j will + 2nd rounder

whatever

but looking around realisticaly, i think kwame is your guy. (unfortunatly ? :) )
