    I would absolutely give him a shot and drop Brewer like a bad habbit. With Harden's elbow this might actually be an important signing if the buy out happens.

    Agreed.

    Granger
    Terry
    Gordon

    In that order.

    Brewer has value as a trade asset for salary matching purposes. It's fully unguaranteed and not an option which is a bonus, ie can be traded before July 1st.

    Yes, but things are going so swimmingly for him at this point that I doubt he'd resurface for a job in the NBA. Plus he has a bad case of crabs. Not a good fit.

    Gordon isn't even good enough to stay on the Bobcats. Do not want.

    why not. with the best center in the league drawing up some of the attention, the handsomest guy in the nba getting some focus and the beard getting the rest, a pure shooter like gordon will thrive in a 3andD system like ours... more than terry and granger. and he could play the role perfectly behind harden, and replace trash ass Garcia

    I would love to have the Ben Gordon of old on this team, but this year's iteration is straight trash.

    35% from the field, 28% from three, 5 ppg.

    Of course... he's rich, he's stuck on the BOBCATS , what would be his motivation to play. he turned into a chucker. but make him the 7th man on a Championship Contender like ourselves, and the fire will ignite again.

    I'd be trash too if I was in trash teams for the psst 4 years
