    Charlotte is looking to do a S&T with Mo Williams, don't imagine head be cost prohibitive. This could be a good fit here as he can be a passing PG but can also give that instant offense with the second unit. Defensively he's nothing to get excited about.

    Burke and Beverly would be a great duo at point

    Never said they are the same player. Just don't think Dekker wouldn't get much playing time right now and feel like he would be the most valuable asset in a trade.

    Doubt Lowry, Hill or Holiday are even available in trade talks.

    Ultimately we should go for Burke or Mills and forget about resigning terry. Use Terry's money to resign Smith.

    Beverly/Burke
    Harden/Brewer
    Ariza/mcdaniels/Dekker
    Dmo/Smith
    Dwight/Capela

    I have. And what I don't understand is that everyone acknowledges we need shooters, yet Stuckey's name keeps getting thrown around. The guy is 29 and was a career 28% 3-Pt shooter prior to last year. He's a slasher. We don't need another slasher, we need a shooter. I actually think Aaron Brooks is a better fit.

    Aaron Brooks was horrible this year.

    there is no "use terry's money" because terry will get a vet min. So it doesn't matter at all if he's resigned or not. We don't save money to give to anyone else. Only roster spot.

    Trade him for Dorsey. Joey will give them a few rebounds, and a rare block/dunk.

    Stuckey did shoot 39% (memory) on a decent number of attempts. I read he lost some athleticism and worked on his shot. As much as I like guys who can shoot as well, it doesn't seem Morey is so set on that. We just signed Brewer long-term for the same money Afflalo got.

    Deron Williams gets mentioned around here a lot. But the only way he's a viable option is if the Nets cut him like the Pistons cut Josh Smith. There is no way the Rockets will pay Deron Williams 20 million per year for the production he's been giving and we'd have to include some valuable players even match that salary. No thanks.

    Only 2 attempts per game I think.

    Interesting didn't know about the injury story. So that 39% may not be an anomaly...interesting. If he can do that again, now we're talking. Guess I'm skeptical since he's been playing so many years.

    not available/will cost a fortune
    absolutely not available
    Stress fractures/not available.

    Let's all be more realistic with expectations. I am waiting for the trade to happen but it's not for anyone of them.

    Not a big Rubio fan, but he could work with this team.

    I have no real expectations. Just saying I'd be stoked for any of those guys

    Jarryd Bayless is another option if all else fails (3M next year. One year left on deal). Given the Bucks have 5 PGs, the price would likely be low.

    Yes. Bayless WILL get traded but I don't know for what or when. and the amount of pgs right now is not 5. It's 8.

    BTW i don't have the depth charts of the teams but look what this guy who knows a lot tweeted :
    collison for jones. I can see it happening.
