    I'd like to see them make a pitch for PJ Brown and JR Smith.

    Juwan, Head, Bogans, Bowen, Rafer, any of them could be shipped for all I'd care

    Send the Wizards the TE for a re-signed Jared Jeffries. Send the Wizards a future first rounder or Luther Head to complete the deal.

    Juwan, Luther, and Rybo to Portland for Miles and Jack.

    TE to Memphis, next year's #1 pick to Atlanta, BJax to Atlanta, Josh Childress to Houston.

    there was a rumor that chandler and Allen for Brown and Smith.

    I say we go for wilcox, maggette, crawford, wells, cato, or gooden.

    wilcox
    wells
    maggette
    gooden
    crawford
    cato

    in that order.

    one player i really like but who's i think untouchable is josh smith ... with his size and athleticism he can play 2/3, and even 4 if you go small. + he's a great shotblocker/rebounder, and he's beginning to knock down some 3 pointers ...

    we could also try to land luol deng ... but with no assets to trade, dont see it happening at all :(

    PJ Brown? How old is he ... 50? No way! JR Smith would be great!

    If we can do a SnT with the Raptors with our trade exception to sign MJ and use the MLE to get our starting SG, then our offseason is nearly done. We don't have much to trade with.

    The first deal is great!!! I think Jeffries is the last one for Rockets to be competitive for NBA finals.

    I wished we had an executive like Colangelo who is quickly turning around the Raptors. He would have kept a product like Gay (in a similar vein to Villaneuva) and traded him for someone young and productive like T.J. Ford. Ford should be on our team instead of Battier.

    As we all wish.

    Our team architects couldn't build mud shacks in shantytown. :mad: Heck, they believe fog horns are made out of fog.

    if we lose alston, this team has NO POINT GUARD.

    i say we only sign free agents (cato, mike james). a S&T for mike james would be too costly. i mean who do we give up to get him?

    there goes the little "depth" we have if we S&T for MJ

    all of those guys would be great! but seriously, we can't afford them, can we?

    ideally wilcox and wells and MJ would BE AMAZING, but there's a snoballs chance those guys would take less money to come play in htown. those guys want to get paid. it looks like the only one willing to settle for a little less to come here is MJ.

    I pick Chris wilcox. That guy is athletic and can add some rebounding ability to our front line. Yao will do all the offensive duties while wilcox will do the defensive stuff.

    Wilcox showed a lot of progress late last season with the Sonics. If he can be a 12/10 guy for us, it'd be a big improvement.
