Only if KG, Pierce retire and they "stretch" waive Bass and Terry. That or if Big Al decides he wants to go to Boston for the MLE.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

i'd prefer to let someone else pay big money to ensure they're the 7th seed for the duration of his deal.

You forgot the S&T. Which is how we acquired Lee. Although it will be hard to come up with adequate assets for Utah, unless they would take back a package of Bass, Lee, and Melo, or something of the sort.

So tired of this response to Big Al. Name the last decent team he's played for? Some people act like dude is a scrub. Sure he has his weaknesses but he's still a boarder line all star
*CB Miami Heat*
Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

When Jefferson learns to defend, get back to me.

In the meantime, I'm rather tired of the constant pining for a one-dimensional player.

This is his third team where he's shown no ability to help his team win. HIs limited defensive ability is just too much. You can't be a successful basketball team with a Center who brings nothing to the table defensively.

Well its a long shot but its possible for it to happen Danny needs to sign our 2 new guys to Un-Guaranteed contracts for next year , them plus williams and crawford make around 7 mil and in bass for example and its 13 mil add 1 or 2 first rounders and its possible.
Again a lot needs to go our way , and Al (or smith for example) needs to tell his team he wants to play here. A long shot but hey wishfull thinking :D

I'd rather get a big whose defense is good as Al Jefferson's offense and whose offense is as good as Al Jefferson's defense.

Could the same not be said for Ray Allen prior to us acquiring him? And you forgot that Big Al is also an excellent defender, which is another dimension I would love to add.
