Fixed that for you.

Some interesting options if we send some salary out and use matching salary + space to take on a big contract.

S/T rozier for Lonzo. Add a vet wing shooter and another vet big. Resign graham

Cody can do what Winslow does, so that's redundant.

Melo, graham, lonzo
Lonzo, bouknight, cody
Hayward, vet shooter,, Cody
Miles, pj, mcd
Mason, pj, vet, Vernon

Everyone else to the gleague.

They need to drop either one or both of the twins and probably Richards, then add a vet shooter at the SF slot.

I KNOW Hayward is going to miss another 15-20 games and I REALLY don't want to depend on the twins to get any more than 10 (combined) minutes per game, nor do I want to see a 3 guard lineup.

Someone like a Jared Dudley from a few years back would be exactly what the team needs.

McDermott on a 1 year overpay is something I could get behind.

I think we trade something for Harrell and Kai, Thor and Carey spend the season in the G, if Carey isn’t traded

Agreed, a sharp shooting forward is our biggest need

I'd target him and Reggie Bullock. Bullock seems like he's a NY guy, but it's worth reaching out to him since he fills a need and maybe wouldn't mind moving back to NC.

THJ would probably be too much $. Green would be wonderful.

After factoring in our rookies and Graham’s cap hold, how much room do we have?

When I was still a UNC fan him and PJ Hairston were a pretty fun duo

So we're all pretty sure Devonte' is coming back unless some team offers him crazy money. What else are we going to do though? Are we going to sign another veteran big? Will we leverage RFA to work a trade to send Monk to another team with someone else coming back?

Give Otto Porter/Kelly Oubre a 2/24 with second year team option or partial guarantee
Resign Graham
Give Biz the Veteran Min of 1.6 million to be our 3rd/4th center

Pistons just waived three guys to clear the way for free agent signings, having already sent Mason Plumlee to Charlotte. Any idea what they are trying to accomplish?

If it were me I'd be targeting a veteran point guard - Patty Mills would be good for that team.
