    Even coming back from an injury, livingston has a huge upside. Even now, if he was in this past draft or last year with rubio, he would be rated way ahead of rubio. I'm not sure if he really fits as an off the ball pg like adelman kinda prefers, but he's a guy long term that can still be special.

    Watson is a lowry clone of sorts. He doesn't get to the line as much and is older, but he can run the team, a bulldog on defense. Arroyo would also factor in the conversation as well.

    Shaun Livingston is not proving match up problems for anyone, if he was someone would be interested in him. I use to be a big Livingston fan back in his Clip days, but those days are long gone. Hell he played on a team where Sam Cassell and Elton Brand were the top contributers, that seems like ages ago.

    Dont base anything off what you saw the Wizards do last year. They were all looters in a riot, putting up worthless, meaning less stats on a garbage team, someone had to do it.

    Not sure what Ridinour has been up to, but that is the only intriguing name. He must be doing something right, I read somewhere Amare wanted him to be the pg in New York.

    A few weeks ago I had a dream that we re-signed Rafer. I'm not sure if it's a dream, or a nightmare.

    All terrible options compared to Kyle Lowry.

    He'll be re-signed.

    I really like Pargo even though he had an off year. He spreads the floor well and is a solid back up.

    The answer is obvious.

    He has long hair and his name rhymes with Hoochie.

    I haven't seen Pargo recently but I really liked him in New orleans. Still lowry is the best fit for our team. ANd I expect pargo is going to want 4mil+. To me we have to sign Lowry unless management is convinced Llull is the real deal and we can talk im into coming over Next year. And actually Lowry and LLull work better than Brooks and Llull. Okay I am rambling. I hate the thought of losing Lowry but I'm concerned he may not play as well in a non contract year. Especially if he is already tweeting it's nice to be wanted. The Cavs must have already informed him they would offer a sweet deal.

    well Luke can be crossed off the board cuz he was signed to a 4yr 16mil contract. I would take Bynum over all of those guys but he is a restricted FA. He would make a very nice replacement for Lowry doh.

    yeah screw Livingston when we can sign our 'own' 6'6" PG for WAAAY cheaper than him and also anyone else on that list. Temple would be a nice way to go if Lowry is gone. can't believe I forgot about him but is he even available?

    I like Shaun Livingston in a backup role, playing 15 to 18 minutes in place of AB. Tall, good vision, his jumper is as scary as Lowry.
