Also, martin/Andrew - isn't it time we added a Triangle emoticon? We have the Pringles one?

I have a feeling if we dont sign him Sneaky Pat is gonna sign him in miami

We have nobody who can spread the floor and it's going to be a problem in the regular season. While I like Ledo and Galloway, Neither one of them is a 2nd guard who can spread the floor. I would cut one of them to add a b/u center. At this point Thanasis isn't even in the picture.

Ledo seems to get to the line at will. Galloway seems completely lost this year. He seemed good last year because there was nothing to compare him to

Galloway = Chris Duhon 2.0

This is why I like the moves that Phil made in the offseason. Now that we have an actual team, we can start to look at upgrading the talent at certain positions. I like Ledo and Galloway and I'm not going to diss them, but it won't be hard to find better talent at this point. And coincidentally, they both have partially guaranteed contracts and are becoming expendable.

If he's slated for Europe then make sure we have his rights. If we cant do that then Id be in favor of bringing him rather than some other ancillary piece. Kid brings energy, hops, D, personality and has a J that isnt a surprise if you look at his college tapes. He's a 3/4

More of a 4. can play 5 if we go small like GS did with green

I see Ndour as a young Kurt Thomas - I think he can play a lot of undersized 5. As our third string center, I don't think he'd need to, but I think it is possible.

I don't see KT at all. This guy is an athlete.

KT got about a 10 inch vert, Ndour gets up there

Galloway is going to be a 10 year pro. Maybe he'll even be a $40m contract player. I wouldn't say someone like Danny Green ($45m, 4 years) or Shumpert ($40m, 4 years) are any better.

Just saying.

But back to Ndour. Wow. We probably just saw the game of his career - shows that he's clutch. Balkman on steroids, Faried, maybe Shawn Marion upside. The disruptive capability of a young Worm. Team mentality.

I think he can capably fill in what Q Acy showed us last year, probably with more upside. Acy's problem (and a challenge with his sort of game) is that he runs a fairly high risk of being injured every minute he's on the floor.

Shumpert is counting his lucky stars. cavs will regret that contract
Gerald green is better than shump...but im not a GM

Ndour is more of a faried, if he can make that midrange like clockwork,he'll be really good
Think of haslem a few yrs back....

Defense got the Cavs to the Finals..They completely shut down ATL to get to the Finals..Perimeter defenders are invaluable in today's game..Resigning Shump was a no brainer...
