    With the rise of the Dragon (as well as the price of it). If we successfully resign him, does that mean we are done going after Williams?

    Probably so but since we have maybe a 2% chance of signing D-Will anyway I don't really care. D-Will isn't going to come here, so it's pretty much a non-factor.

    No, could use his contract/value to trade for a fitting piece. That said, I highly doubt we get a star FA in the next years.

    It wouldn't make sense to go after Williams. I think we are good at PG with Lowry and Dragic.

    Deron Williams played in a 3 PG lineup at Illinois with Dee Brown and Luther Head, no?

    Kyle+Goran+Deron = Triple Penetration

    NSFW
    Just kidding. You really think I was going to post an image?

    Does D will make us that much better? Yes, I understand the possible "he will attract another star" theory, but we can probably get Gogi and Lee for the price of his contract. Those 2 together have to be more valuable than he is...not to mention that I think C Lee will be a borderline allstar if he starts an entire season.

    I think we literally have to verbally commit to Goran, the starting role, for him to want to stay here.

    If he became the back-up, we'd be paying him a lot of money just to be the back-up.

    Why would we pay a max deal for Williams when we have our choice of 2 great point guards as it is?

    Uhh what a dumb question

    Why would we give a PG a big contract, and then trade for another. Sometimes i wonder why, i was stripped of my thread-starter ability haha

    Lol, why would we give Dragic a big deal then try to sign D-Will when we already have Lowry?
