    Pau/Zaza/Turner
    Chalmers/McCallum
    Brandon rush/Gerald green/Gerald Henderson
    Resign DMo

    My preference would be:

    Capella/Zaza
    Anderson/DMo/Montrez
    Ariza/Henderson/KJ/Dekker
    Harden/Gordon
    Beverly/Chalmers

    Trade Brewer for space

    Qi, underhand freethrow guy, multiple non draft guaranteed guys for RGV

    I think that would be a deep and entertaining team.
    Probably 50wins.

    1) Sign Llull or Tyler Johnson

    2) Trade for a backup or starting center

    Is there any FA out there that can be got for $15m that would make trading brewer for nothing in return (having to send a 2nd rounder with him to grease the wheels) worth it?

    The guys that have like 2 yrs or more left on their contracts might just give up and play like ass... Some are just too sore and tired to play this game to begin with.

    Go after Sullinger because we need a center and we need rebounding
    Go after Vasquez because we need a point guard

    Chuck Hayes is listed as (PF) Houston Rockets.

    He's obviously an ex-Rocket which got me thinking there are a number of ex-Rockets on this list I wouldn't mind having on our bench (including the bottom of it) if the price is right...

    Brooks, Canaan, Lee, each of whom I think could thrive under MDA... even Tarik Black could give us useful minutes.

    very young . I was sad when I heard about Jason Collier passing. Atlanta believed in him as he was the cornerstone during their rebuild movement.

    Unless he's court-ordered not to, even though it's not the healthy thing to do, if I were him I'd get back on the bottle and hire a full-time driver and a full-time handler to keep him out of trouble. He'd be playing like a champ again in no time. And having fun doing it. Not even joking a little. He might have a comeback as a sober person, but it's not looking good. I believe he would still have a career if he were still drinking.

    I've said many times here I'm an alcoholic and ex-drinker. I won't say I'm "recovering" because I'm not and too because I have so absurdly many health conditions from which I am also not recovering. But I'm not drinking. And I have absolutely lost a step in various aspects of my life as a result, from my professional capacity as a theatre director to shooting pool. As a drunk I was a pretty good pool player; now I'm always just a little bit too tight to let it flow. And I think that's what happened to Ty Lawson.

    I'm not giving up tens of millions of dollars though by losing at pool. I halfway shudder at saying any alcoholic (if he is one) should drink but to be honest I sort of think he should. At least long enough to have a career.

    Resign Dmo, then grab 1 of Tyler Johnson, Ian Clark, or Seth Curry.
