Because he is better than Tucker? Because rookies hardly play? because Warren may spend time in the D League. Because Goran and Bledsoe are good and may want to try to get better. Because a healthy Deng can play defense?

Because we may make a trade. :-? If we are interested, it is for a reason. I'm sure MC'D can see what we need and will do better than us.



I trust McD. If he makes this move I have faith he knows some things I don't.

Deng is interesting but depending on cost

Still want us to make a trade for Love. As a straight male, I'll do sexual things to anyone for us to land him.

Nevermind your right lets hope we get that 8th seed and tie up our cap space with Deng, its a solid move.


Yea, lets not sign a guy to a short term contract and TRY to compete. That is real competitive of you.....Maybe I should learn how to not try or quit, then maybe I can relate to your point of view.


Nevermind stifling our youth. We are too deep right now with talent to take on more. Look at our roster..

Bled/Ennis/Ish
Dragic\Green\Goodwin
Tuck\Marcus\Warren
Kieff
Plum\Len

We need bigs, not a 4th option at SF. You could argue Marcus could go 4 as well, but that still leaves us too deep. Yes, there is TOO deep, unless you plan on using our young guys as assets.

Besides ALL OF THAT. I would rather watch a young up-and-coming team than a team stuck in mediocrity.

Depends on what our ultimate goal is:

Contend now: Deng
Build for future: Stephenson

Stephenson is a scary headcase but let's not pretend that headcases don't win titles (See Rodman, Sheed, Artest, etc...).

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Who do you think we need to create time for Warren or Len? We need depth at the 4, but again, I am cool with giving Brown a run.


Dragic/Godwin/Ennis
Bledsoe/Green/Goodwin
Deng/Tucker/Warren
Kieff/Len/Brown/Warren
Plumlee/Len

what's the problem? Ennis and Warren will be taking Archie and Len's place form last year.

It seems that we are planning on attempting on running a lot of guys at other posistions and see what they can do. We plan to run either Plumlee or Len at some Pf. to see whats up, and also it would seem that maybe they see Warren as a Pf going ahead. I agree Deng is good, just dont know if he is worth it if that is all we do. Our weakest spot of the year last year was big man play... and all we seem to be looking for are guards and small fowards!!! Draft a pg.... looking at Thomas.... looking at Morrow??? What the hell is going on here?!?!

As McD has said numerous times, We dont play positions, we put the best players out on the court that we can regardless.
