Our Options For a Starting PF

[Dead_Real]

Wow, EB, good find on the highlight reel. That block Williams had on Chris Paul was the sickest of those, in my opinion. The guy had to readjust his entire upper body in midair to switch the side he was blocking on! That's just nasty. I don't know if he's really the PF solution, but I would feel better going into the season with him on the roster than I would with the folks we have right now.

If I'm not mistaken, his troubles at BC stemmed from his habit of puffing the green stuff. I think that can be fixed/toned-down with good influences like the Bobcats have on this team. Then again, he might fit right in here in Charlotte.

Yea I remember he got caught with weed and it hurt his stock tremendously around that time I remember many draft experts thought he would be a lottery pick before that incident. I wonder if the Nets are still interested in McMay right now I know they wanted him last year but it was reported we said no to the trade offer

the sean williams thing sounds good. but is there any realistic possibilty of getting him. hes not a free agent is he?

and send sean may in a trade would be a bad idea i think. then we are stuck with two offensively challenged big men. Granted... you would be hard pressed to score buckets inside with Sean Williams, Okafor and Crash guarding the paint. but still inside scoring is a priority to me in a search for the PF.

Which is why I think we should stay away from him...we really need a more face-up PF...I think his defense is outstanding but we'll still have trouble getting points from 4-5 positions with duplicate players....

Everyone on realGM wants a starting PF (we all do) but how do you get one this year without giving up a part we need...or waiting for a team with too many contracts "give" us a player in a 1 for 2....?

Exactly!

I want a starting PF badly, but until that happens we really don't have any pieces that have value we can afford to part with.

Portland has no need at all for Frye . With Olden coming back he will be lucky to get 10 mins per game burn . Portland is stacked with power fowards and is well in to the luxury tax so Frye should not be a hard plyer to get . Many trades work on the trade machine but Portland dont have many needs . I tHINK as long as they could save some cap money a trade is possable. So Morrison at about five milion looks to be a good trading piece

Frye for Morrison doesn't work for Portland if they're looking to clear money/contracts. Morrison makes about a million more than Frye this year, and has a longer contract.

Again, we dont need to trade a player we need (Morrison) for a PF.....just sign Fabio

Id really like to have Herrmann back...

Portland has a lot of players thet are not needed surely we could make a trade

Fabio is NOT a power foward . We need a p/f . I don,t want to go another year with out one.
Fabio is 6.8 and only has jump shots not good on the boards
Frye has that jumper too . Hes 6.11 and can defend inside and could rebound. Hes a Larry Brown type player good on the defencive side with a high basketball IQ.
If its Morrison , Dudley, May , Davidson , Hollins Who ever . Some one needs to be traded for a power foward[Who don't start]
Charlie V would all so work but i think he would be harder to get now thet Yi is gone.
