    In free agency I would like to go after Ron Artest, James Jones, Ricky Davis, and Mickael Pietrus.

    Rudy Gay looks good. Marc Gasol? Darko Milicic? A rookie and a bust all of a sudden looks good?

    Our front court in 05-06 of Mutumbo Howard and McGrady looked godly in comparison. Mayo and Conley looks good for sure though. We already have a young developing PG in Brooks so I wouldn't want another, if we're going to get another PG he should be an established, consistent player.

    Marc Gasol will be a big (no pun intended) surprise, and Darko is still developing. Big men just take longer -- remember how young he is.

    I foresee the Grizz improving by 25 wins this coming year -- still a lottery team like Portland this year. But Portland is coming a beast, whereas we are taking baby steps to becoming more athletic (thanks for Donte Green).

    That's why I would love to trade Battier and change for Ron Artest in a sign and trade. Then we would be a contender, especially with Green and Greene.

    What's that old song, "It's Green, Greene on the Far Side of the Hill?" -- Green, Greene and Greener! :D
