The chair that guarded Yi Jianlian

That chair is signing for the minimum with GSW...

I looked through the list of available free agents. I think our best option for now is sticking with Crowder. Slim pickings available

And people will applaud the brilliance of their front office for that signing.

With Millsap signing in Denver, the hand writings on the wall for Kenneth Faried. Last year his playing time was shortened, besides being injured. Other than shooting the 3 he's a good fit, really good defender, adds needed toughness, and rebounding. He'll get you 11-12 ppg in the paint, and 9-10 rebounds if you play him 30 minutes.

He and Smart will make a fun duo when playing together too.

We have Crowder, Tatum, Zizic, and Semi O.

Doubt faried comes for the minimum. Also, he isn't able to play starting minutes

Can we bring back Jerebko?

Ultimately I think Tatum works his way into that spot.

Trade Bradley and Crowder for Vucevic and play Horford at PF

Not even close to enough to get that deal done. Probably have to give up bk2018 AND Bradley and Crowder AND either Tatum or Brown. I'd probably still do it at that price though. I love Vucevic.
Thats nuts. Butler, George, Chris Paul and Cousins all went for significantly less than that. No way Vucevic costs more than matching salary and a late first rounder in the future. And that's if Ainge decides he is the type of player that fits Stevens system, which I doubt.

Trading Crowder/AB for someone making $12 mil would be enough salary savings to pay Hayward the Max.  Favors, Vucevic, or go get Jamychal Green in a Sign and Trade.

Then turn around and sign Luc Richard Mbah a Moute with the room exception:

IT. Rozier
Brown.  Smart
Hayward. Tatum
Green. LRMM
Horford. Zizic.

The Chair will probably have a career year...

Is this satire?

Who says Vucevic is even available?  But most guys are available for the right price...

No way am I trading Vucevic for Bradley and Crowder and a late 1st rounder if I'm the opposing GM. . Skilled young big guys are rare commodities in this league. As for Stevens, he started an entire season with Amir Johnson. He would def take Vucevic.

Edit to add: i had Vucevic on my fantasy team 2 years ago, I developed a strong liking to his game through watching him play. He is a lot better player than most realize.

Ugh crap. What about the next best thing: Yi Jianlian?
