Well, we are going to add another big before camp. That isn't exactly breaking news. It's probably not going to be someone splashy though. SVG has a starter and backup at PF already.

PF depth: Ilyasova-Morris-Tolliver-Baynes-Stanley-Granger-Miller

We're more than OK there and Morris might be the future.

Van Gundy reiterated that Morris is coming in as a starting small forward. With the Suns, the 6-foot-9
Defence Wins Championships,we need to return to the Bad Boy era.

He can start at the three and back-up the four but I think Tolly gets off the bench for Ilyasova first.
Weaver = Hinkie

Langlois does say that Detroit will look to bring in a beefy PF, to offer a different look - so who knows. I assume that would be via trade at this stage - only asset I think would be moved for a depth PF would probably be Bullock, and maybe include Granger and Martin contracts if necessary with us sending money or taking back a bigger contract to make it more a financial move for the other team.

This is the source, or one of them for the rumor about ersan's age. It 'might' be the reason his health hasn't been the best the last couple of seasons, but who knows.

Looking at the remaining free agent PF's the best available (for what Stan is purportedly looking for) might be Tyler Hansbrough - Would he be a good fit on our bench here. A high energy, high intensity garbage man PF type?
