1: Calderon, Grant
2: Afflalo, Galloway
3: Melo, Early, Thomas
4: Porzingis, Williams, Amundson
5: RLopez, O'Quinn, N'Dour

That's 13, if they cut Ledo and sign N'Dour. I wouldn't mind Wear, but looking at the big men corps, it's getting a little crowded in there. I don't get the Alex Kirk love, frankly. I only caught half the LAL game so far, but he did not impress last night.

I think they need a SG and a PG for the last two spots.

I wouldn't mind that D-League guy... Elliot? Also, Scottie Wilbekin looked decent last night.

I sort of think that looking at the roster they might not give up on Ledo yet, but I have not seen anything from Ledo that makes me think he will "get it" any time soon.

Also, major props to Early for improving some things. He looks like he should be Melo's backup right now, as opposed to looking like a pile of hot mess. Maybe the injuries were holding him back?

1. Whos thomas?
2. wilbekin had a nice game, but it was just that....1 game
3. Everyone here wants wear out, he did nothing last year and still looks pretty insignificant on the court

1) Lance Thomas

2) Yeah, I just don't know who the other options are for guards at this point. Who is out there at PG? We need a third PG, I think, with Calderon being 34. Shved just signed in Russia.

3) Wear is okay. I think we have a lot of guys at his position though with Melo, Williams, Thomas, Early, Amundson. Wear couldn't minutes in front of Thomas and Amundson last season, why would he get them this season?

I like what I've seen from Early, but don't jump the gun- he also looked good in d league last season. His problem has always been the deer-in-the headlights demeanour he gets in NBA games, thats whats holding him back. Hopefully this summer league gives him a confidence boost.

I'm okay keeping him.

I still think we need a third PG.

Because he is an energy guy who can play in the triangle. Apparently those are rare.

That's valid.

Elton Brand is still out there. Though he's apparently deciding between retirement and playing again.

Williams had been displaying on our SL team, mix of experience and some talent. Giving Thomas a raise was money better spent keeping Aldrich. Unless Ndour can be stashed with rights, then consider adding because he's a worthwhile wild card. My 13 players with position designs. as of today. Enuff flexibilty at 2. 3. 4, shallow at 1 and 5

Calderon 1/2, Grant1/2
Affalo 2, Galloway 2
Williams 3/4, Thomas 3, Early 3
Melo 4/3, Proingis 3/4/5, Ndour 4/3
Lopez 5, Quinn 5/4, Amundson 4/5

Agree with pretty much all this - except KP playing the 3. Don't think he should ever do that. And I think KP and Melo will eventually start together.
