Not sure the 5 pick gets it done. That said: PG Alexey Shved 3,990,000.00
SG Danny Green 10,000,000.00

I would go to war with the above roster for the next five years. Fill in the roster with the who's who of D'Leaguers. I'm open to suggestions for PFs.
PG Aaron Craft 550,000.00
SG Thanassis Antekoumpo 550,000.00
SF Jarrell Eddie 550,000.00
C Jordan Bachynski 550,000.00
PF [WAIVED VETERAN] VET MIN
SG/SF Tim Hardaway 1,304,000.00
SF Cleanthony Early 845,000.00
PG/SG Langston Galloway 845,000.00
SF/PF Lance Thomas VET MIN
C Cole Aldrich VET MIN
Youd be extremely competitive in the east thats for sure. Not a big deal but Id take Thabeet way over Bachinsksyi
You could do Thabeet. I can't forget that quote when being scouted... he's 4 years away from being 2 years away or something like that. Whoever said it nailed it. That said, he might be ready for a Vet Min contract.
Briggs -- who is the top PF likely to be available from D'League, UDFA, Vet Min or a late 2nd purchase? Rakeem Christmas?
