Considering the drafted players we got, and the players that will definitely be with us - here's what I think we should do with the remaining ones.

Stays - Curry, Frye, Lee, Marbury (ugh), N.Robinson, Crawford, Butler, Collins and Balkman
The Rest - Francis, Q.Rich, Q.Woods, J.Rose, M.Taylor, J.James and M.Rose

Francis - push for the Eddie Jones deal - seems to be the best chance at getting rid of him (since the Denver and Atlanta deals require more contracts to be added).

Q.Rich - I respect his D although he had a terrible shooting year. B/C he and Marbury don't get along - he will probably be moved. Here are some of the players that have similar salary to Q.Rich and the years on their contract... Kurt Thomas (+2), Mark Blount (+4), Magette (+3), Kenny Thomas (+4), Fortson (+1) and Patterson (+1). Any of these better than having Q.Rich?? Maybe Kurt Thomas back for 2 years to add toughness and give Marbury some sh&t occasionally?:)

Q.Woods - I really hope IT resigns him b/c I think he can provide offense at the SF position, especially since we acquired a (potentially good) SF that isn't offensive focused.

J.Rose and M.Taylor - Please waive them and buy out their contacts - this will help the team atmostphere, allow the players to sign elsewhere, and ensure that we don't add more contracts.

J.James - Please buy him out or waive him unless he meets weight requirements specified by middle of summer. I think it's worth it to eat the money and not have him around!

M.Rose - try to trade him for someone with a better contract or a more talented player (even with a longer contract). Mark Blount, Troy Murphy and Croshere all have similar contracts - maybe one of them would prefer to take Rose b/c his ends quicker? If not, let him sit on the IR list - at least he hustles and sets a good example of a professional.

Guards - Marbury,Crawford,N.Robinson,Collins,Q.Rich(unless traded)
Forwards - Frye,Lee,Woods,Balkman,M.Rose (unless traded)
Centers - Curry,Butler

3 extra roster spots due to players waived and/or bought out.

^ It's seriouly funny that you include Kurt Thomas in the Q trade prospect list.
