Which 15 players do you think will stick?
Here are the no brainers due to skill/contract...
Carmelo Anthony - F Andrea Bargnani - F-C Tyson Chandler - C Raymon Felton - G Tim Hardaway Jr - G Kenyon Martin - F Pablo Prigioni - G Iman Shumpert - G JR Smith - G Amare Stoudemire- F Beno Udrih - G Metta World Peace-F
That is 12 players. 3 more to go.
For me...I would keep the next 2
Cole Aldrich - C Chris Douglas-Roberts - G
Aldrich is serviceable center in the league. CDR...I am a fan. He reminds me of a taller Rip Hamilton
The last spot I am torn. Do we need another perimeter player or another big. I think I am going with another big and a youngster.
Jeremy Tyler - F
How about you?
EnySpree@ 10/4/2013 12:25 PM
that's how I see it....
CJ Leslie needs to get stronger cuz he looks like he's sick and he needs to develop his 3 man skills. Cut him and resign him in the d-league cuz that's where he belongs.
Toure Murry should be on the roster too but we have 3 point guards already. Sorry dude.
the rest are just camp invites...plus Chris "I love my big brother" Smith.
CDR and Cole Alrich are too good to let go and Jeremy Tyler is worth the risk because of his potential especially approaching 2015 free agency.

Three older PGs. I'm pretty sure Murry will be needed for spot minutes by the time the playoffs come around. Felton is our youngest PG without Murry on the roster, and he's pushing 30.

Murray also has enough size to defend on the wing. I think we need Murray's defense more than we need CDR's shot creation at this point. I'd like to keep Tyler, but would have no problem releasing him if Leslie, CDR or someone else surprises.

I think youre right we trying to win it all--not develop players this year. I would allow Leslie to make the team this offseason as Murry but if they cant go all veteran. We have to keep Aldrich because we need another center--Tyler is a lock. So let the best man win out of Murry Leslie and CDR but CDR has already had multiple 20 and 30 point NBA scoring games and hes 6-7 with handle.

I agree--those are my last 3 as well. Aldrich, Tyler and CDR. I like Ike Diogu & Toure Murry a lot too but they look to be on the outside looking in right now.

you can do much worse than aldrich and tyler as your last guys on the roster,

Rockets Waive Jordan Henriquez
Thought Morey did a great job finding him and I think he can grow to a Lorenzo Wright type of production at PF/C I think he can contribute in a limited role this year and has potential to develop as high as Bucks PF/C, Larry Sanders
