i think tyler and bam getting better is the biggest improvement we can make this offseason

maybe we will see potential from okpala? I'm assuming he can take the djj role, as I'm pretty sure he's the one guy that's gone in free agency

Same team comes back. We will take care of Goran with a nice one year deal. Should also sign Leonard on the cheap. Crowder might give us a one year discount. KO, Iguodala, and Nunn could be used as trade bait.

didn't realize that Bam ended up having a decent game (probably way too late though).

the way Chalm Down was describing I thought he was Kwame Brown wearing Bam's skin.

Shewasfly wrote:Herro needs to work on his ball handling. For a guard who wants to play make like he does, it needs to be waaaay tighter. Idk, but I would get so scared whenever he tried to dribble in traffic. But maybe that's where his short wingspan comes in.

Bam I want to see work on his mid range, using AD as a blueprint. He needs to be confident enough to face up and do that every time down the floor. I also want to see him work on a post up game before he develops any 3 point shot. He's such a smart player and good passer. I think he should be generating offense for himself and others, as much or even more than he's looking to spot up and have it made for him.


I'd rather he get a 3 point shot first. He can refine his post game as well but extending his range should be a priority. It will open up the floor even more for everyone. And secondly if he can force centers to guard him at the 3 point line, he can take a lot of them off the dribble. Maybe apart from AD no one can match his footspeed.

I feel we have two options. Try to return the team as is but honestly i dont think its enough. Our star player in his prime was not able to step it up, because his tank was empty, next season he will be older. He needs help now. Bam will rightfully want his max contract now, if we dont give it to him its just like the Celtics not extending Tatum early. Sharks will smell blood in the water. Money is money. If we can get a certain MVP player now, especial seeing our star player this game i feel we need to do it.

DJJ is a goner. We are overloaded at the swing spot. Okpala will get every chance to compete with Iguodala for minutes.

So Bam to PF is what you guys are thinking with the Drummond/Rebounding big ideas? I think we need a good backup PF/C who can rebound the ball and shoot FTs well. Being able to hit jumpers would be the icing on the cake, but Bam has to be our center going forward.

I keep forgetting Iggy is on this team lol. Not sure how much is left in the tank, you're right that we should trade if the deal is right. I do like Kelly though.

Yeah, another team will surely outbid for him. Will miss his dunks

I guess we can use our pick in trades too? But hey, wouldn't mind making another good pick again

Bam is fine playing center but it would be nice to have another 6’9 or up type player who can shoot and rebound playing alongside him.

No im just spit balling random C's who are known to rebound and be assertive.

I do want Helmet head though. Hes zesty, annoying and can shoot 3s.

drummond is actually expiring but not sure he'd help? he was horrible with the Cavs.

Helmet head is good contract 12-13 mil per but Bucks probably want an asset for him to keep Annapokendo

I just want a good rebounding big.

montrezl harrell is available too but he had a break out year so hes prob gonna get paid

drummond fits your bill perfectly but we probably don't have the matching salary that Cavs would want or we're willing to give up.

we have no chance for Harrell, but he's not a good rebounding big more like homeless version of aggressive Bam.

Maybe McGee, Dwight, Cousins and that kinda outdated bigs might become available? :dontknow:

Agreed, but with the way our current team is built, there is no place to put a big plodding 6'9''+ guy who can't shoot. Maybe I'm undervaluing Drummond as I haven't followed him too closely, but I'd hate for us to have to move away from our free-flowing style of play
