    I don't see us signing any of the remaining free agents for more than a 1 year deal at a nominal amount. Still like Greivis Vasquez at that price.

    Then trade Brewer, Beasley and Gentile to Sac for Gay

    Resign DMo to a 3 year $30 million deal

    Beverley / Vasquez
    Harden / Gordon
    Ariza / Gay
    Anderson / DMo
    Capela / Nene

    McDaniels
    Dekker
    Onuaku
    GPII
    Harrell

    i've always liked him. Underrated physical player, does a great job doing the dirty work inside.

    I think we have a legit shot at two 20+ point players on the team this year in Harden and Anderson. Rockets haven't had that in 10 years since Yao/McGrady. Aaron Brooks averaged 19.6 one year!

    Don't sleep on Gordon. This offense will increase overall shot attempts as well as tempo. There will be greater opportunities for everyone.

    Rudy Gay, Kosta Koufas, and Ben McLemore made available by Kings. Wouldn't mind adding Gay. Not sure what the contracts are like.

    Sullinger and Kevin Martin would be great but I don't see them willing to come here.

    Sorry guys, Rudy Gay is done. Wouldn't waste time trading for him. McLemore should be our target.

    Also, James Johnson could be a really good get for us on a cheap deal. Lengthy defender capable of playing small ball PF.

    He's played for our summer league or developmental team before. I think he might be a good get.

    I like his game too, very versatile swiss army knife type player and much younger (29) than Korver. But his domestic abuse issues are troubling.
