I am so desperate for shooting, so yes.


Lol Honestly I was thinking the same thing. If Masai can talk him into taking a Limited Bench Role...I dont see why not

Plug him in at back-up PF for offense, OG for defense. Kinda makes sense if he will accept it.

I think you sign Shelvin Mack and Markieff Morris. Would probably sign Randolph as well.

Still pissed we didn't go for Jamychal Green in the Gasol deal. Surely we could have done better than Avery Bradley

I'm intrigued by this guy, but his knees are a big question mark up to this day.

What's his injury history?

His same right knee which caused his stock to freefall in the draft is still bothering him today. Missed out on summer league last year, and occasionally sits out games in the g-league this season.

Do you know if we can give out a 2way contract still? Maybe sign Boucher and then give him the 2way.

I would be so down with some combination of Courtney Lee, Jeremy Lin and Markieff Morris. We have an A+ medical team so that helps.
I believe in Masai.

A bit outside the box, but what about Mo Speights as a third center?

Speaking of Charlotte, I wonder what kind of reaction Gasol would have it was were traded there. Big difference. Charlotte hasn't done anything to improve their team, and may very well be our first round matchup

Gasol/Ibaka
Siakam
Kawhi/OG
Green/Powell
Lowry/FVV/McCaw

Ibaka can't be trusted in the playoffs. If Morris' neck is fine, we need to acquire someone like him as our back 4/5 to serve as insurance. And we can play him against Boston, he beats up on them.

OG is an issue. He's not a good defender. We need a more versatile back up 3 with a handle and shot.

Powell is also an issue. I wish we would have acquired Lamb somehow to be our backup 2/3. Maybe even start.

Lowry is an issue, we need a better back up PG in case his fragile back throws our depth into flux in the playoffs.

We have a lot of issues, I hope Masai can get creative.

Thought about it last night... he can't hurt us like he did other teams if he's an 8th-10th man as opposed
to a high usage starter. We could use some more offense off the bench and shot creating and 3 point shooting
especially with OG not looking good offensively.

Melo must know a contender won't start him at all right?
