    let's pick up all the shooters out there: jj redick, mike dunleavey, korver, old men vince carter and z-bo for our bench rotation!
    damn the PG trade made me kinda mad for some reason....

    Trading for Melo would be upping of the riskus profilius.

    Would rather go after milsap though.

    If we can't get a third star I wish we never made the trade for Paul in the first place

    Not until Milsap/Melo are gone.

    I'd consider either solid 3rd stars.

    Why do people want to keep stacking up on shooters? Do y'all want a chance to beat GS or just have a fun regular season? We need 2-way players, not 1 dimensional bums like Korver and Dunleavy that are useless against the Warriors.

    Melo isn't getting a buy out most likely, we can't trade for him if they won't take ryno and he wants to go to Cleveland anyway

    I'm 100% risk profile.

    Trade for Melo then sign Bosh. Doesn't get riskier than that.

    No one left is really going to move the needle at all. I really hope we do get Millsap. But does acquiring Millsap really gives us a good shot at overtaking the warriors? It seems that theCP3 trade moved us from the 3 spot to the 2 spot and that's about it.
