    Realistic hope here. (I believe Bibby can get here somehow. Not sure of contract specifics)

    Yao Ming
    Chuck Hayes / Melvin Ely (Sitting at end of Spurs' bench)/*Just plain anyone*
    Shane Battier
    Tracy McGrady
    Mike Bibby

    Any combination of that would be sweet. I hope the new coach gives VSpan a legit shot at starting PG. He can be a special player... hopefully his experiences with JVG doesn't tarnish his desire to work hard and get better.

    Adelman will love Juwan. Unless there's an upgrade at PF, expect him to start.

    I think he will get plenty of playing time next season, how its going to work with hayes I am really not sure, we might just stay with them two and not even look for another PF

    Tmac- SF
    Yao- C
    NBA power forward
    NBA point guard (maybe VSpan, I think he has potential if we had a real power forward and a real 2 guard)
    NBA 2 guard


    Battier off the bench.
    Rafer 10-12 min (if we can't deal him)
    VSpan 15-18 min
    Novak- 10-12 min (if he can rebound a little and defend someone)

    Snyder- whatever
    Head- hope he is part of a trade
    Deke- nice guy goodbye
    whoever I am leaving out doesn't matter

    Juwan needs to go. Yes he is a good player for Adel's system ON PAPER, but this guy cannot make a crucial FG to save his life. He's simply what you call 'chokejob'. ALthough I appreciate his 'stepping' up to hustle and play some defense (probably inspired by Chuck Hayes), he still needs to go because we can get a much cheaper player who can do those stuff as well

    You read my mind. I pulled off the trades in NBA2k7 successfully. I see no reason why the Rox can't do it in real life.

    You know what would be absolutely hilarious? What if the first thing Adelman does is trade away/waive Spanoulis next season?
