Malcolm Brogden.  Love the dudes game, his demeanor, and his potential.  Super efficient, not ball dominant, fantastic defender, and potentially won’t break the bank.  Maybe would leave enough to sign another decent player.

Of course, he’s restricted and Milwaukee might very well match any competitive offer.  I have no issues starting at 20 mil.  I’d go a little higher if needed. 

Would that be enough?  Is it too much?  Would we have enough to sign a decent big (assuming rozier was let go)?  Am I crazy?

 Not enough for Brogdon.

I am sure there is  Brogdon thread somewhere here.

This may be a really bad idea - some of you who watched a lot more of the games than I did could say with more accuracy whether Brad Wannamaker is good enough to be our point guard. Then fill out the roster with a shooter off the bench and two athletic, defending, rebounding post guys. Bulk of scoring would come from the three wings, J, J & H plus one of the more skilled post players and a strong bench ??

No need to be a jerk about it. I asked a sincere question - what I saw of Wannamaker made him look better at handling the offense and setting teammates up to score better than Rozier. Plus, we know he can score.

You already, admitted you did not watch a bunch of the games.   No, he can't be a starter on a good team.    He plays within himself, but if he started pencil us in for the lottery.    He never broke into the rotation and I don't get it, how guys can't realize that good players will play and not rot on the bench.   It is about winning and if he was a starter caliber the talent would eventually emerge and he would have been playing sooner in the NBA.

That is what scouts do they look for talent.   Sometimes it is hidden, but once your in the pros even in Europe and Turkey there are tons of scouts seeing you looking for the next great thing.
