Off-Season Trade and Free Agent Ideas Thread

[SWedd523]

Calderon is a great passer and everything, but I'd ratther have a more athletic, tougher, defensive minded backup PG.

No thanks on either Martin or Scola, but I'd gladly take Lowry but I don't know how we'd go about bringing him in. Would also LOVE to bring in Jeremy Lamb but I doubt that ever happens

Let's try and keep all the trade and free agent signing ideas in this thread folks.

Thanks

im not sure how much money we have to spend on free agency but the likes of Anderson and Hickson are worth the money

Swedd, can you edit the title? I didn't think it implied we were involved in a trade, but I could be wrong. Maybe just add the worde IDEA to the front.

How much of the romance around RA takes into account that he's had Howard there to back up any defensive miscues and the team in general (I'd think) benefits greatly at the 3pt line from defenses collapsing in on Dwight?

Broussard tweeted, Gordon, who wants a Max 4 year 58 million deal will meet with several teams one of which may be Charlotte.

From what I hear NO will match any offer, but what does this tell us about how Chi & co view our roster?

Hendo isn't a part of the plan (at least as a starter)...the Gordon trade was really all about the pick...

Idea was in the thread. I just merged it into the trade and free agent ideas sticky


And naturally a new thread pops up. Seriously guys

Mike Dunlap says that we need 3 point shooters to spread the opposition defense and i think Anderson would be the perfect fit for our team. He averaged 16.1 PPG and 7.7 RPG and shot nearly 40% from the 3pt line.

Yeah, I get the stats for sure. But would he get 16/gm, 40% from 3, 8rpg w/ our front line in its current form? I'd be more interested in improving with a decent center (thus my suggestion of reacquiring Kwame) or if we want a good outside shooter, find one we know can be such w/ a similar front court to what he'd be playing with here.

Maybe you guys are right though and I am overly concerned about a pickup like this.
