    Lawson/Beverley/Terry (according to reports)
    Harden/Thornton/KJ
    Ariza/Brewer/Dekker (Rio Grande)
    D-Mo/Jones/Harrell or Williams
    Dwight/Capela

    That's 14 guys.. we need 13 going into the regular season... Who goes?

    Does Dekker only count toward the cap and not a roster spot since he'd be in the D-League?

    Maybe a backup center in case that Capela can't fit in ?

    I guess Morey will sign a few guys afterwards(maybe some undrafted guys) and waive them so that Vipers can sign them in advance.

    Why is everyone assuming Woods will not be on the roster? Maybe he will maybe he won't but he does have guaranteed money according to woj

    The way I see it is we can sign one more big veteran to our roster and that's including terry already added in.

    Dekker and Harrell in d league 15 player roster with dekker or possibly harrel still being able to play in the lineup just depending

    i'd say Terry, and PF/C Alan Williams from the SL squad ... except if someone relevant is willing to take the vet minimum to compete for the championship (Boozer ?)

    Terry and Alan Williams would be great.

    I am never wrong about these things: like we didn't sign poor man's DMO - Scola, we aint gonna sign poor man's Jones - Boozer. Not gonna be able to do it!

    Please put some developmental players on the squad, the 10 through 15 doesn't matter. So have a veteran besides Terry to sit the bench doesn't help. Maybe Chuck Hayes at best.

    I wish people would quit trading Jones off till we see if DMO has recovered from back surgery. Back surgery heals at it's on schedule, It doesn't give a hoot about team time tables or schedules.

    I'll add Todorovic as a possibility in case Rockets decide to use rest of non-taxpayer MLE and can't get Williams to sign.
