    Dunleavy shot nearly 43% from distance last year, over 41% the last 3 seasons combined.

    Are we sensing a theme yet? :)

    I think Garcia will be back, he performed excellently in the playoffs and is a beautiful spot up shooter

    Delfino's body started to break down (his elbow it seemed), i don't think he will be back considering how we are injury risk averse

    Shooters, shooters, defense and shooters.

    Anyone think we will be interested in Redick?

    I prefer Francisco Garcia over Dunleavy, the way Garcia played for us in the playoffs was tremendous and can carry over this year.

    We are trying to find shooters for Royce White, PG extraordinaire, to pass to?

    Yes, but how does Brewer fit into that? You think this limits our chances of getting Tony Allen but increases our chances of trying to get Garcia / Delfino back?

    Definitely agree on the 3 parts shooters, 1 part defense. Guys like J. Smith a C. Brewer fit the defense, but it seems everyone else is a shooter.

    Corey Brewer is the white Delfino?

    I would love to have Garcia back as well. He got in Durant's head so bad in that series. Never seen anyone do that to him.

    Dunleavy and Delfino posted remarkably similar numbers last year.

    I can't believe Dunleavy's been in the NBA 11 years (and is 2 years older than Delfino, would not have guessed that). This year was only his 2nd trip to the playoffs, so I'd imagine he wants to go play for a winner.

    Brewer may have a connection to Dwight and Parsons -- he played for Florida's NCAA championship winners. He was drafted right before Parsons was a freshman, but I'd guess they at least know each other through that network.

    I think Dunleavy was ranked the 9th most efficient player by Synergy in the previous season 11-12? I don't know how he ranked this year but throughout his career it's how he's played his game.

    Here's a nice write up on him.

    If we could field

    Howard/G. Smith
    Josh Smith/TJ or Motie
    Parsons/Brewer
    Harden/Dunleavy
    Bev/Canaan

    We would have a shot at a ring.
