Also, If we let Ron go... what about Marvin Williams...hes young (24) , but a restricted free agent... very good 3 point shooter and he is the same size as Ron.... 10. Marvin Williams, SF, Atlanta (Restricted) Age: 23 Key stats: 13.9 ppg, 6.3 rpg, 1.3 apg Williams has never justified his status as the No. 2 pick in the 2005 Draft. But he has improved steadily over his four seasons and became a solid shooter last season before back problems sidelined him down the stretch. He's the youngest player in the top 10 and can fill holes on both ends of the floor. http://www.nba.com/2009/news/featur...ents/index.html thoughts?
How would we get him? Atlanta would match our MLE offer. If you're considering a SnT with Artest I doubt Atlanta would go for it. If they did, then LOL at their efficiency with Crawford, Ron, and JSmith on the floor.
Houston gets Chris Bosh Toronto gets Luis Scola Shane Battier Brian Cook Brent Barry I would rather give them Landry instead of Scola so take your pick there. Cook and Barry add up to about $5mill in expiring contracts
Stay away from Bosh. He has enough talent around him to make the playoffs in the West. He can't make it in the damn east... Unless of course we get him as a second option, and we would still need defensive force down low...
True, but the reasoning makes sense and, boy do I want something else to talk about besides Yao being out.
