    Ingles is sneaky good. Has good all around tools to his game.
    Will be interesting to see if we can get a George or Milsap or will we have to get a couple of PPat, Ingles, Tucker type guys instead. Gotta have another all-star to be taken seriously. Have had too many years of one star and a bunch of role players you hope can be consistent. Let's get it Morey!

    Ha would be interesting. Another guy I would be looking to sign for vet min or close to it is Mario Chalmers. I would assime he is healthy so could be a sneaky Morey signing. Has done it before with Bron and Wade.

    Like i said in the Millsap thread, i think we need some toughness and energy.

    Guys like Patterson, Roberson, Tucker, Snell are those i would go after i guess...but it all depends from who we're going to get now, if it's George, Millsap or Melo...

    Anyway, assuming Nene is staying for cheap and Nanu will play some minutes, we might be set at the center spot. Reed might be an interesting option btw.

    Llull would also be perfect but yeah, we know it's not happening...and btw, Bogdanovic just got a 36x3, not sure how we would get Llull with the MLE, i really think that ship has sailed.

    Ah, i'd also like to get VC.

    I don't understand what your definition of star is this case I'm assuming. But he averaged 6 points and 4 rebounds last year.

    Ingles would be tremendous if they can snag him.

    If they could somehow turn Ryan Anderson and the non-guaranteed deals into the 3rd star and then use the MLE and TPE to get Ingles and 2Pat and then some ring chasers like Brandon Bass, that would be a pretty strong roster.

    Paul
    Harden
    Ariza
    Melo *hypothetical
    Capela

    Gordon
    2Pat
    Ingles

    Would be pretty damn salty.

    Just smth..Snell isn't tough or much energetic most of the time and he shouldn't be on this list coz he gonna get paid.

    In fact neither should Ingles, THJ or Roberson. THese guys are RFAs that their teams want.

    Going off the Morey "try,try and try again" philosophy I fully expect Chris Bosh and Melody to be added

    Would love Gibson.

    CP3/Gordon
    Harden/Gordon
    George/Ariza
    Melo(buyout)/J. Johnson(Full MLE)
    Gibson(TPE)/Nene

    Is on par with the the Warriors. Scary that that team isn't even noticeably better than them though.

    I am also leaning towards Z-Bo for the 8 mil exception.

    Ingles, Gibson, Kosta, and/or Korver. Some combination other than the two or no bigs.

    Ingles will be too expensive. Aren't we moving forward with working above the cap? Don't we need to be to have all these exceptions?
