there's no time to wait on dwight howard ,that's still even a big IF if he would sign here therefore i would conjur up a plan to not only compete now compete next year too
j.r. smith
he's probbaly looking for a 3-4 year deal around 7-9 million so how do we afford him? 3 words .SIGN AND TRADE
i dont think denver will resign him i've read that he wants to move on & so does the nuggets he's only a year older than rondo (somewhere around that ball park) he can be abother cornerstone piece in the future along with rondo & jeff
we can possibly s&t j.o contract along with avery bradley & a conditional 2nd rounder with semih's TPE for j.r smith or a j.o & glen s&t swap
we can offer j.o vet min after a more than likely buyout
Jason Thompson
much easier than trading for j.r we can trade for him straight up with Quisy's TPE for Jason thompson add a future pick so that sactown bites harder
VET MIN guys & possible LLE guys ..Aaron grey & kyrlenko fesenko are two big beefy guys that'll help us at the center position & like i mentioned before resigning j.o after a more than likely buyout from denver & marquis daniels would be good insurance though he wouldnt get injured if ray or j.r has to sit out a while other than that he can play on the garbage time team
resign delonte
im not too sure about resgning delonte but since im a fan of his i'd like to see him back ,again a guy for insurance again a guy for garbage time though many of you will say delonte is better than that i cant brin myself to say he has a major roll after the injuries he has last year on a consistant basis
sign the rookie johnson ,let etuan play in italy & grow as a player
The MLE
Joel Prizbilla
i wouldnt use the whole MLE but about 4 million outta the 5 plus mill & use the rest of the mle on a buyout target or another center (kwame brown??)
if this pipe dream comes true our roster looks like this
Rondo/Delonte
J.r. Smith/Pierce/Ray
Green/Pierce/Daniels
KG/Jason T/JJJ
Pryzbilla/j.o/grey/fesenko/some jason t.
i benched paul simply because i feel that resting the big 3 is a must this season & let j.r/jason T & green get the bulk of this minutes to have fresh legs all 48 minutes of a ball game from a selected player rather than a run down player at the end of games (see games 1,2,4,5 in the miami series)
its very possible if danny gets creative enough though this is a pipe dream i like this roster becuase not only do we contend this year ,we contend next year & have building blocks like rondo,j.r.,green,j.thompson for the future then & PROBABLY THEN would we be able to talk dwight howard into greener pastures
