    With Howard, we fill the hole at 5. No disrespect to Asik, Howard is a huge upgrade. At 4th, I am confident that DMo will improved, or we are getting Smith. Parsons is better suit at 3 than 4. The remaining hole now is we need a cold blooded 3 pt snippier coming off the bench. There is no guarantee that Lin can greatly improve his 3 pt percentage to the level of Mike Miller, Danny Green or Ray Allen.

    Who should we get? Who is available?

    Morey, please go get a legit 3 pt shooter, then we will have a complete team.

    As long as Parsons, Harden, Lin, and Bev can collectively hover around 38%, I don't think a 3 point specialist getting major/crunch time minutes is necessary.

    Bring along Korver in the deal for Smith.

    Rockets can find 3pt shooters for cheap..no need to go after Anderson at that price..Garcia, Delfino much better options:rolleyes: No to Anderson

    wait is Anderson a 3pt shooter?

    I seriously think Anderson would be better than J-Smoovie in terms of a fit. It would help keep our offense going and make Parsons more dynamic.

    I'm not really digging a Howard-Smith combo.

    Have to disagree with you. Look at how Allen and Green impact the series. Both SA and Miami have quality 1 to 5, but still needing a 3 pt shooter.

    Cannan is a 3 point shooter as well. Team needs a shutdown defensive wing, Smith is that and Anderson is not.

    Bring back Garcia, or a guy who nobody talks about, Anthony Morrow. Played little last year so he'll be really cheap.

    Delfino is gone, and he wasn't that effective anyway.

    Anderson led the NBA in 3-pointers in 2011-12 and was second last year behind Stephen Curry.

    You think he's a 3 point shooter?

    Also, Delfino/Garcia for the winnnn

    Ryan Anderson would be the perfect fit at PF.
