Berman of the post is throwing around names like Ike Diogu, Earl Clark and Ben Gordon.
Sigh.....
Would be surprised if anybody signed. Our record and how we handle Basketball decisions on and off the court is horrible this year.
I have a feeling we are looking to sign players that will take a team option for their 2nd year so we can use them with the 3m in trades to buy/trade for picks/players in the summer
Basically trade bait, so players that will not want that 2nd year locked on as a team option
Although it wasn't much, Ronnie Brewer's trade exemption expired this past trade deadline, about 1m
Those 2 2nd round picks that were acquired from David Lee that were sent with the CA trade comes in handy, I forgot which year the 2nd pick was, it was either this year or next summers
The first one was used on Evan Fournier though, with a few players that we could have used it on including the 3rd string PG/SG/F on Twolves, Alexey Shved, that would have been a 3year deal cause it was an early 2nd rounder
Since we didn't use it last year, we are eligible to use it before the draft this summer, and I believe we can use it again once the new season starts which is AFTER the draft, so if we do sign 2 unguaranteed contracts, we would probably look to purchase 2 2nd round picks with the 3m - 3.2m in trades to purchase draft rights/picks for our future
Not sure if we can a high enough pick for Pierre Jackson, maybe adding in Iman?
Will we try to get a PG or SF to use to continue to fight this year?
Ebanks, Bobby Brown, or another D Leaguer?
