    For those wondering about Lou Williams, the Lakers' trade for Jose Calderon would seem to put him in an awkward spot...

    Gordon, Anderson, and Nene.

    Are we trying to set a record for most games missed with injury next year? Did Morey find some CBA loop hole where he can exploit this?

    ZaZa at this point of their careers. He almost averaged a double double last year.

    What's not to like about getting NeNe cheap??

    Backup big who can tutor Capela and bring some toughness. Great signing - we needed a vet big who can man the middle and step it away from the hoop, and he brings all of that.

    Good passer as well.

    can't look at it purely on numbers because they are 2 different style of player and played in two really different systems. Nene is better on the defensive end, he does all those little things you love a player to do

    One more Brazilian:
    Most obvious answer is Barbosa, or maybe Huertas
    But please let it somehow be Neto...

    Huertas would be my least favourite option there

    Barbosa and Lou would be a bit redundant, no?

    I bet after looking at our recent acquisitions, Durant is kicking himself for signing with the Warriors. #hindsight 20/20. LOL
