Well, another "Camby" would mean a proven/helpful player on an expiring contract that could be had for the cheap. Mark Deeks has a list of expiring contracts at his site: http://data.shamsports.com/content/pages/data/salaries/expirings.jsp Notable names: Jose Calderon, Devin Harris, Beno Udrih, Jarrett Jack, Richard Hamilton, Brandon Rush, Mike Dunleavy Jr. Now, I don't know if it makes sense for the Bucks to move either Udrih or Dunleavy for anything the Rockets would offer, but the Bucks ownership is pretty cheap, so perhaps they'd entertain the thought of swapping them for less price player and perhaps a second rounder. Calderon and Harris both may cost too much and their higher salaries also make it harder figuring out a trade while preserving enough cap room to take on a guy like Rip Hamilton to get another asset, like Morey said they'll likely do. Hamilton, in a way, is like a premium Camby. -- not only may his play and bird rights be a positive for you, but you might actually get something of value to take him on. Then there's the Warriors situation. They are over the tax and certainly will at least look what it would take to get under it at the deadline. You could do something around Douglas for Jarret Jack or Cole Aldrich for Brandon Rush, who's out for the year, but whose bird rights may have some value. Both deals would get the Warriors under the tax. Rush is one of the few guys who becomes trade delegable on January 15, which Morey noted without being directly asked about.
Did he show up to the booth and told them their jobs are safe? Like when he showed up with Bill and Clyde.

I think these guys may have already given away who this year's Camby is. He is in the background between Daryl and Jason, is on an expiring contract, plays for Portland and was apparently closely associated with "Linsanity."
Jefferies? That would be awesome if he goes to the Rockets again, from everything that I've seen perhaps injury-prone (or at least prone to playing with injuries and sacrificing his body alot on plays) but great in the locker-room and was one of the main people alongside Tyson who was in Lin's ear about being aggressive and to keep shooting. Do you have anymore thoughts on this and how it'll go down?
I'd be happy if JJ comes here. Cheap& great hustle and defense. Takes charge, rebounds, set good screens. Love him.
