    iirc i think he was planning on bringing ellis off the bench but having him play more minutes than brewer, sorta like how the spurs used to use manu.

    That would be a lateral move dude....I would think long and hard about starting Webster at the 2. Where is your second ball handler? You cant play
    D will the entire game. Even with another big (aldridge) this would still be a huge problem.

    Calm down man. I'm not trading butler away until I hear from jmc. I might trade him for jamison I might trade him for lee or crawford. I'm gona drop either webster or fernandez for a ball handler unless I get a trade offer for them. In the end, I'm trading butler. Or at least I will try my hardest.

    Aww. Guess I'll have to fight my way up there.

    Anyone want JJ Reddick? Great shooter/off the ball player who plays solid defense. I'm looking for someone slightly bigger. A SF hopefully

    i would have to agree on rednation, jmc, and arjun but not fadeaway or torque. Fade doesnt have enough shooters in his starting lineup imo while torque has no number 1 option for offense. joe johnson shows every season that he is just not good enough for that.

    No one seems too high on Maggette. Anthony Parker went undrafted. I'll swap them out.

    My team:

    Stephen Curry/Jameer Nelson
    Jason Richardson/Anthony Parker
    Omri Casspi/Anthony Parker
    Kevin Garnett/Kwame Brown
    Nene/Kwame Brown

    My team already has great shooters. Kidd is solid, Mayo and Gordon are fantastic, Batum is also solid.

    I would prefer someone who can play a little defense. JJ Reddick actually plays pretty solid defense against 2s.

    I will get Korver if I don't get any offer though.

    Why don't you think that fatigue will be a problem for Arjun? In the playoffs, teams typically run an 8 or 9 man rotation. Arjun is trying to get by with 7...

    Not to mention his frontcourt defense is horrible. I know its just the opinion of 1 person, but here's what Hollinger has to say about Lee and Blatche (and a comment about Blair from that "expected value" defensive website). Keep in mind that these statements were made before the 2010-2011 season started, but I think they're still apt.

    David Lee:
    Dejuan Blair:
    Andray Blatche:
