Does ANYONE KNOW how much money we have left out of the 3m available to spend left? Did we use it all already?
And if so, when do we get it again? I really like Bobby Portis, I hope we can get him, feel he could be a future ALL STAR and he is dropping to a reasonable target!
Know Briggs has also liked
Justin Anderson
Delon Wright? Montroll *as a Ben Wallace type*????
Jordan Mickey/Jarrel Martin, maybe fall a bit to early 2nd round
2nd rounders
Robert Upshaw??
Christian Woods JP Tokoto Arturas Gudaitis
Dakari Johnson
Josh Richardson
really like Pat Connaughton as a F that would be a better Delly like player and a YOUNG LEADER/HARD WORKER/GREAT TEAM MATE, POSITIVE and GREAT LOCKEROOM GUY! for Pat Conn
Again, there are a lot of D Leager's that I like and they are all G's and G/F's In the Triangle could possibly even play PG as a BIG PG with GREAT SHOOTING ABILITY and a Robert Covington/Lamor Odom type....
Some of these players below FineStrng and Briggs has brought up in the past
1- Jerrelle Benimon SF, SF/PF, strech 4, maybe a Lamor Odom type player as a triple double threat
2- Jarell Eddie, G/F, a Danny Green type talent on shooting
3- Scotty Hopson, G/F, another G/F that can shoot and score/penetrate/facilitate, decent versatile game as well
3 IMO, are must adds to our roster, to 2year deals and 3year deals with leverage with partial guarantee for year 1 and unguaranteed after =============================================================
3- Scotty Hopson, G/F, G 6-7 205pds, 3pt shooer that can also penetrate/facilitae G, G/F

As LATE 2nd rounders and that could be undrafted there are many 2nd rounders to be stashed or signed, and/or undrafted FA's
1/2- Marcus Thortnon at G and David Laury (not sure if we still need him since we got KP but undrafted in the future maybe D LEague/summer invite) at F that Briggs has brought up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3LQfbrWSOM
3- Sam Thompson as a smaller Ariza comparison at G/F
4/5- Harrison Brothers with Aaron Harrison and Andrew Harrison
6- Quind Cook of Duke as a Norris Cole comparison type talent
Michael Qualls would be another talent that could be in the middle/late 2nd round to stash with his injury with THE FINAL PICK
Some other previous thoughts I had but like our roster now.... Love the Tim Hardaway trade for NOTHING!
Delon Wright is the BETTER PG but Grant is the better athlete and shooter maybe but more importantly we got decent value for Timmy, while filling a need
maybe James Johnson to save Toronto money? and get a 2nd rounder back too? We need a solid SF that can defend SF's/PF's against Lebron, Durant, Paul George, Jabari Parker, each 4x a year at least, on the West for SG, can defend James Harden, Chandler Parsons, even youngsters like Andrew Wiggons
@ 2.5m we would also own his early bird rights in a trade, possibly save Toronto some money which they didn't even use him in the play offs and I think could make a difference Not sure what Aminu/Jae Crowder would cost... With guys like Wesley Matthews and even Ed Davis saying they want 15m and 8-10m, I don't know what the value is for players
For a vet min type player could be high flyer, Utah Jeremy Evans with GREAT LENGTH AND ATHLETICISM, lets remember DeMaRRE Carroll didn't get much minutes there as well and I liked him as a FA then too however, I didn't think he was going to be as good he was this year

ANYONE KNOW WHY BOBBY PORTIS IS DROPPING SO MUCH????
Does ANYONE NOT SEE A POSSIBLE JERMAINE ONEIL IN HIM? A SOLID REBOUNDER, DOUBE DOUBLE GUY WITH a PAIR OF STEALS BLOCK TOGETHER
Damn, think he is going to be a STEAL for Chicago!

We cannot still tell what direction Phil Jackson is completely going right now, in terms of how he will utilize the cap space?
Will he use some space to absorb contracts to acquire more picks and some 1-2 players? Still could have FULL MLE on top of about 28m if we resign Cole Aldrich with early bird rights *we could also make it partial guarantee and cut him if he agrees to such a deal, making him free 2m for signing papers!
Briggs, or ANYONE is Mike Muscula a RFA? He was picked at 44, but Atlanta gave him a 4year contract with team options for 3rd/4th?
Could we offer him a contract? Possibly poison Pill? Though they did us a favor for taking Tim Hardaway for their pick
Not sure what DMO's injury is but I think he would fit EVEN BETTER than Muscula though we would need to trade for him
