We have some type of assortment of trade exceptions. Not sure if that could figure into things? 

It would seem Eric Gordon, Hibbert, and David Lee are pretty realistic and would make us better. Not a big Lee fan, but we would be better.

Yeah, Lee is 32 and stinks at defense, but at this point he'd be an upgrade over Sullinger or Olynyk.  He's more productive than either.  Doesn't have three point range, though.  But then, Sullinger doesn't have consistent range, either.

Gordon hasn't been all that much better than Bradley offensively, really, but he's shown an ability in the past (and in the playoffs this year) to be a quality scorer.  The key with Gordon is health.

Hibbert ought to be a lot better than he is offensively and on the boards, but he's still one of the best defensive centers in the game, and that makes him worth the money.  On offense, he takes advantage of mismatches when he can, at least.  Bogut is probably worth $15 million a year given his defensive ability, so why not Hibbert?

Personally I'd rather keep Sullinger/Olynyk.
