Whether we get Howard or not, we'll need to target players that will fill a need/hole in our roster while still maintaining cap flexibility. Opinions on Morey vary wildly, but I don't think anyone can deny this is something he excels at. Lowry, Dragic, Brooks, Parsons, Lamb, Buddinger, DMo, Courtney Lee, TJones, Landry, etc. I was wondering who you guys think is out there that we can acquire that are currently undervalued. The player I personally would like is James Anderson of the Spurs. If there is anyone as good or better at finding gems than Morey, it is probably the Spurs. A potential 2-way player with good outside shooting, great size, and potential for plus defense. Not too different than what Courtney Lee brings to the table. Him backing up Parsons would be a great fit. He potentially can shoot as well as Bud did, but could also stay on the floor with his defense if his shot's not falling, something that Buddinger struggled with. They currently have Leonard and Jackson to man that spot and I do recall his agent requesting a trade some time last season. Here's a list of some others that have piqued my interest...share some of yall's as well. -Lance Stephenson -Roddy Beaubois -Elliot Williams -Jonas Jerebko (Pricier than the rest, but I feel is still undervalued IMO) -Julian Stone -James Johnson -Brandan Wright -Patty Mills -Gustavo Ayon -Ekpe Udoh -Josh Selby -Andrew Goudelock -Jon Leuer (who we have and I hope keep)
Morey has an infinite amount of data at his disposal to find said sleepers. I let him figure out who's undervalued.
Donald Sloan comes to mind. I know a lot of people don't even know who that is. He is an excellent defender and drives to the whole with confidence. He has struggle shooting three's but that can develop.
Shelvin Mack is a guy I'm high on. Won't get much time backing up Wall in Washington. Would love Morey to acquire him with one of those Knicks second round picks. He's a baller. I wonder how cheap a contract Anthony Randolph is going to sign. I think he's excellent value at around $2 mil per with the ability to turn it around. I'm still a believer in Brandon Rush. I think he's gonna break out this season. Would love to see GS get in a situation where they'd have to turn him loose. If he signs for $3 mil or less per season, he's going to be tremendous value. I like James Anderson. Would love to pick up Patty Mills cheap. (But I suspect SA will move Neal before they move Mills. And Neal would be a nice pick up as well.)
Haven't seen too much of Donald Sloan in game action, just clips. Reminds me of Lowry from what I can see in highlight form. I would LOVE Brandon Rush here. I was hoping we would have moved up and drafted him a few years back. Another potential 2-way players. But I was under the impression the Warriors were high on him, so I didn't include him in my list.
