    Roberson is an interesting idea because he COULD be a Durant stopper. Then I remembered his free throw shooting & that Durant completely burned the Thunder this year.

    From the sound of things... the Rockets are maybe looking at players in the mid tier of things to use their MLE AND BAE on..... the NGteed contracts are may on the table to be aggregated or used str8 for a team to do a salary dump on the Rockets if need be....

    I hope we go after str8 shooters, and it seems as though we are.... maybe get those pieces agreed to, and then have sit down with the big fish.... This PG thing is kind of holding us up to, because if we get him, we cannot get any of the big name free agents on the market. So that is a big domino for us atleast..... Windhorst said that Gordon is the one that will shake the FA market up and then everyone will start signing.

    But if they are sitting down with folks its the mid tier folks... and maybe, just maybe Millsap and BG. I doubt any big names agree to anything until they see the big domino of Hayward fall... or if they sign with their respective teams..

    We have assets to round out our roster. This should be fun. Also, here is to hoping that Melo and Wade get bought out so they can come join this up and coming super team.!!!

    I'd be happy with hayward (First meeting and the success of Parsons should be noted in conversation) and Milsap. If we keep Gordon even better. I'd love Ariza to stick around also.

    1st Tier
    *Gordon Hayward - Ariza upgrade
    *Paul Millsap - not as good of a shooter as Anderson, but way better defender

    2nd/3rd Tier
    Danilo Gallinari
    Rudy Gay
    Serge Ibaka
    *Andre Iguodala - defensive minded (make Golden State weaker)
    Zach Randolph
    *George Hill - defensive minded
    *J.J. Redick - bench scorer
    Patrick Patterson
    *Shaun Livingston - bench scorer (make Golden State weaker)
    P.J. Tucker
    *Otto Porter Jr. - Ariza upgrade
    Andre Roberson

    * for players that would make a bigger impact (my personal opinion)

    Taj Gibson would be a more interesting option if he'd come for the MLE.

    I feel that you significantly overestimate young Ariza

    He most certainly has. His defense has dropped off a cliff.

    Andre Roberson would be an unbelievable signing.

    Maybe the daughter is 6-7 year old instead of 12?

    They don't get along according to every source on the planet except Codman. We don't have a meeting scheduled that we know of. Codman's been right before though so make of it what you will.

    I was thinking Andre Iguana, but I read that they're diurnal.

    We don't need him. We need a nasty BIG.
