    He's more like a Chandler Parsons, but with defense.

    Just meaning can switch everything and guard multiple positions like Ariza. Golden State has like 9 of those guys, it works.

    He's better than Ariza and Parsons, but he's not coming. I'd love him to sign with us though.

    Yes, I said injuries are a concern.

    Batum ain't a clean bill of health either. That said, doesn't matter. Parsons won't be back.

    Why stop there, lets re-sign Brooks, Scola, Hayes, Martin, Budinger and Hill while we're at it!

    Yeah I think him re-signing with the Hornets is a done deal, he loves them, they love him and are probably willing to pay him too, since he's there 2nd best player and they aren't going to attract any other big name free agents anyways.

    If we sign a Hornet, it will probably be Williams and or Lin, who both would be great fits for D'Antoni's system and our roster needs.

    They already have Walker so I don't think they will be too quick to offer Lin money, same for Williams since they will likely have Batum back along with MGK and Lamb on their wings.
