    With Howard, we fill the hole at 5. No disrespect to Asik, Howard is a huge upgrade. At 4th, I am confident that DMo will improved, or we are getting Smith. Parsons is better suit at 3 than 4. The remaining hole now is we need a cold blooded 3 pt snippier coming off the bench. There is no guarantee that Lin can greatly improve his 3 pt percentage to the level of Mike Miller, Danny Green or Ray Allen.

    Who should we get? Who is available?

    Morey, please go get a legit 3 pt shooter, then we will have a complete team.

    As long as Parsons, Harden, Lin, and Bev can collectively hover around 38%, I don't think a 3 point specialist getting major/crunch time minutes is necessary.

    Rockets can find 3pt shooters for cheap..no need to go after Anderson at that price..Garcia, Delfino much better options:rolleyes: No to Anderson

    wait is Anderson a 3pt shooter?

    I seriously think Anderson would be better than J-Smoovie in terms of a fit. It would help keep our offense going and make Parsons more dynamic.

    I'm not really digging a Howard-Smith combo.

    Have to disagree with you. Look at how Allen and Green impact the series. Both SA and Miami have quality 1 to 5, but still needing a 3 pt shooter.

    Cannan is a 3 point shooter as well. Team needs a shutdown defensive wing, Smith is that and Anderson is not.

    Bring back Garcia, or a guy who nobody talks about, Anthony Morrow. Played little last year so he'll be really cheap.

    Delfino is gone, and he wasn't that effective anyway.

    Anderson led the NBA in 3-pointers in 2011-12 and was second last year behind Stephen Curry.

    You think he's a 3 point shooter?

    Also, Delfino/Garcia for the winnnn

    Ryan Anderson would be the perfect fit at PF.
