At some point we have to do something with Early. Maybe Rambis might be able to find him minutes now that he will be the coach

I think I read that he would not be able to play until sometime in March. he is back with the team but limited in what he can do.

Yeah uh Cleananthony got shot a month or so ago. He shouldn't even be brought up. I think he can take the rest if the season off if he needs to.

I'm silently hoping Phil signs him. Still there's alot to consider. The whole roster needs tweaking. We definitely need to package some guys to get another solid piece and open up some roster spots.

Phil was very clear that they would be aggressive and open to listen to any deals out there. It's gonna be very interesting to see what happens. They could make a deal that brought back one more player than they sent out since they still have the open spot. I don't know for sure that Phil would be looking for that much change this late but he did say he wanted to make an upgrade to the roster so ...

Seraphin was a Fish player. His deal is expiring but I wonder if Phil finds away to move him.

I actually liked KOQ but he's been a bit of a disappointment to me lately. I knew he wasn't very athletic but boy he seems like he's lost some hops since the start of the season. He can't jump over a quarter and can't score inside consistently enough. He looked better early on IMO. Now maybe he just needed more of a legit shot to play. Maybe Rambis can get more out of him. We'll see.

Sign Russ Smith.

Then give me one of the following:

Elliot Williams - Better than Tony Wroten. Scorer, ball-handler, quick, athletic.

Terrico White - I've liked this dude for some time now. Can't believe he's not in the NBA. Crazy athlete, physically strong/well put-together, good scorer, plays solid D, can handle and dish the ball. Has a real good feel for the game. Reminds me of Larry Hughes/Qyntel Woods. Imagine a 2nd unit that featured D-Will, Russ Smith and Terrico White--that'd be off-the-hook exciting.

Orlando Johnson - pure SG who would be a straight up upgrade over Vujacic.

Ty Greene - a very useful player in the John Paxson/Steve Kerr mold. We don't really need him now, we already have Calderon and Galloway, just someone to keep an eye on/keep tabs on. Could be a dynamite role-playing guard provided we upped the talent level first.

-------------------------------

Realistic guards we might be able to steal in a trade (I could see both being quality long-term players here):

Spencer Dinwiddie
Pat Connaughton

-------------------------------

Guards to keep an eye on in China/Japan:

Bryce Cotton
Jonathan Gibson - saw this guy play against Cotton in a Chinese game that was televised the other night. Dude's a player.
Kevin Murphy

And if Shved were here, Fisher would still have his job as no way with him at PG to we do as bad as we've had. Kind of ironic.

Was Seraphin really a Fisher dude??

Hard to picture it, right? Even after the handful of times he played well, Fish would just bury him again. Never gave this guy a long/consistent look. I think Seraphin should be established as part of this rotation--for one, he could help us. Go-to post offense and he can protect the rim. And two--we could up his trade value. If Seraphin's a one and done guy for us this year (say Willy H. takes over this role next year), I'd like to get something for him eventually if we could.

I don't know about that. Since we have so much invested in KO, he is the dude we need to develop. We need to know what we have in this dude. He needs to be in the 10 men rotation, and allow to backup Rolo accordingly.

My rotation would be: Gallo, AA, CARMELO, KP, RoLo

Grant, Jose, Williams, Lance, KO
