Would anyone like Tim Thomas as a back up for Paul Pierce I think he could spread the floor as good as Posey with Eddie and Tony to drive.. Plus his salary comes off the book after the season.. just bored and thinking off people that would help.. What do you guys think?

He would fit docs system on offense but I don't think he knows what Defense is and that no heart thing...

Donyell Marshall would be a better fit and his salary is off the books next year too.  (Guess I was bored too).  On that same team is Damien Wilkins that is 6'6 a long wing span, tough defender, and plays 1-3 who is almost an exact salary match in a trade with Scal, (money and years) but I just threw that out there sense we were playing with unlikely scenarios.   ;D

Sidenote why is everybody (cept for Durant probably) so grossly overpaid on that OKC team?

You know the last 60 days before his contract runs out?  That's when Tim Thomas actually tries a little bit. 

No thanks, unless the Cs would also be willing to add Cesar Millan as an assistant coach.

Damien Wilkins would be a great pick up i believe... We could maybe trade Scal and a 2nd round pick and some cash for him maybe at the deadline

The second rounder must be to sweeten the deal because believe it or not their salaries match, it would fit criteria without the pick or cash.

In the past, he has been an excellent defender.  The problem is he has never been known as someone who would keep it up for the long term.  I actually think he would be a good fit here, if we could find a trade that made sense...I don't know if one exists though.

I dunno, something makes me think he wouldn't fit in here, sure he's familiar with the garden, but I mean those skates add 2-3 inches easy, I dunno:

I hate to say this, but I don't see anyone wanting to take Scal or any of our draft picks, unless its a guy that's nowhere in that teams future plans and has an overpaid contract...with Scal 3 mil contract, I can't think of anyone that would fit that description. The only option that I could think of would be sign-n-trades with Sam Cassell, Scal, and Powe/BBD for someone. Other than that......nothing.

Ha-ha TP. It took me a second to put 2 and 2 together.

How long have you been waiting to do that?
