    Would add Jimmer, because Morey/MDA just can't have enough offense.

    I would hope they add another guy simply to play at the end of blowouts. Last night drove me crazy with the starters and key rotation guys playing until the end.

    Anyone know anything about Malcolm Thomas? CBA's leading rebounder and shoots 37% from 3 on 3.7 attempts a game. 6'9" forward.

    Is it already that time of year again when we pick up Josh Smith off of the trash heap?

    You might want to consider China and Europe.

    I'm personally curious about the availability of Ekpe Udoh. He signed a 1+1 deal last summer, supposedly the highest salary ever in Europe. Would love to know if he has
    an NBA out clause and how much it would be.

    Another possibility as a 5 in our system would be Anthony Randolph.

    Not a very good rebounder but would be a nice scoring option at the 5 and only 27. Udoh would be nice, he's got two weeks of basketball left in Turkey and then he's available, brings shot blocking and rebounding to the table, he's pretty the best center in Europe right now. Plus he has a fan club:

    Taj would be great but would not give up Beverley for him. So easy no for me.

    Chemistry is important and after watching last year having the lack of it destroy the team, I would think Morey would take pause on deals for talent where chemistry could be at risk.

    Udoh fits the bill if we want a defensive lane clogger. Decent inurance on that front.

    How is Randolph playing in Europe these days. He always had a very interesting skill set for his height but just couldn't mentally get it together.
