    Yeah Morris would be perfect player coming off bench to back up jones, he's a casspi but taller, better 3, less turnover prone, better finisher running the break, bigger body to guard pfs

    Yeah guess morey can't win them all lol.

    Sounds crazy but I would like to give D-Mo a shot a Backup C, see what he can do, we have enough time before the deadline.

    We have not one person who can spell at the two spot and not be a defensive or offensive liability. The fact that Harden is playing so many minutes on a bum ankle is testament to the lack of depth we have at the wing positions.

    We have to areas of equal need IMO. Backup center (since Asik is a punk) and an upgrade over Garcia. Garcia literally does nothing out there.

    Greg Smith is at least somewhat serviceable at the C spot, when he gets healthy he will help the situation.

    What makes you think that the Bulls have any real interest in resigning Deng? It is unlikely.

    Nice cherry-picking.
    Casspi was 3/6 fg, 1/3 three, 4 reb, 1 blk,1 stl, 0 to in pnly 13 minutes.
    So why lump him together with Garcia, who had another bad game?

    James Johnson also looked promising at the beginning of last year with the Kings, before flaming out. Perhaps he suddenly 'got it', but I expect him to regress to the mean once he has 30 games under his belt.

    If everyone is healthy, and Lin can play together with Bev to give Harden more rest, and the coaching staff uses smarter rotations, I think we are in pretty good shape. Casspi and Garcia played better at the beginning of the season, when everyone was healthy and Asik played.

    Asik is a B**ch. He does not want to come of the bench and will half play even though he is getting paid millions of dollars. What a sad selfish man.
