Nate is still dunking the basketball with the same athleticism.... would be fun to get him back as well

Derrick Rose took a gamble and wanted no RETURN to The Knicks, however, Phil Jackson might have given him a very good 2year deal if he was still running things *for Rose*

HARD to analyze since we had "interest" in every FA out there according to the "rumors"
But with Mills, I think he would have possibly resigned him to a cap friendly deal in hopes of trading him for assets at some point with a deal much lower than PHIL's
Though Phil Jackson probably would imagined CA to be out of the Knicks and therefore would play though Rose MORE and possibly would NOT be the same player with an UNHAPPY KP last season

i like the "misfits" of New York NETS, the non guaranteed contracts or/and cap friendly deals

Lin
Russell

Isiah Whitehead

* I think both Sean Kilpatrick/Dwinwidie would have FULL BIRD RIGHTS according to SPOTRAC if they released them and we picked em up or traded to for them, at least have early bird rights too*
But signing such players to cap friendly deals is much needed to our direction we are heading...

Sean Kilpatrick *I Feel HE FITS IN WITH Jeff's philosophy of wanting to push the tempo, ability to penetrate/facilitate/create his own shot and for the team
ON TOP OF THAT he can mentor Frank as he was undrafted and had to work his way back in to the NBA, improve on his weakness's, and work on his strengths
While Lin and others were OUT last season, for a small sample size, he played VERY WELL,

Spencer Dwinwidie while more of a shooter he has great size as well as DEFENSIVE abilities with his size/length

http://www.espn.com/nba/player/gamelog/_/id/2580782/spencer-dinwiddie

http://www.spotrac.com/nba/brooklyn-nets/spencer-dinwiddie-15390/

Archie Goodwin *played for Coach Horn on the Sun's* and was once a prospect as a combo guard that hasn't developed a NBA LEGIT RANGE

G/F's

Caris LeVert
Rhonda Hollis Jefferson
Joe Harris *contract year*

in Addition to DeMaRRe CaRRoLL who has 2moe years left on his contract

With LeVert, RHJ, Joe Harris *contract year*, and Carroll SF/PF,
So with the addition of Russell and a healthy Lin, with Whitehead being locked in to multiple years already
They are likely to cut, waive, trade Sean Kilpatrick, Spencer Dwinwiddie,

Some other options are

Isiah Cannon

Sessions *like JJ BAREA* who IMO was under rated throughout their careers

Deron Williams think he will join a playoff contender unless NYK throws him a contract much more than the VET MIN
Assuming we would have cap space left after trading CA, I would much rather look to use that cap space to look for HIGH UPSIDE TALENTS to stash on multiyear deals like Christian Wood or SF's than an AGING Williams who
"DID NOT LIKE NYK's city life while he was in Brooklyn"

It is OBVIOUS that we would much rather have Rose on a similar contract than Deron Williams however, neither would likely sign to rebuild in NYK with such a low contract $$$
As much as I like Baker, I would much rather have Rose on such a contract and see if we can still keep Baker on a lower price

Then there are the summer leaguers
======================================

Dwight Byucks

other players that i do not know the names to this second
some of which played for Dallas/Lakers

Ding CBA player that played well for Dallas as a G/F, kind of like a BAKER at the G/F position that is Chinese

Previous Drafts/UNDRAFTED
===================================

can we find the NEXT Tyler Johnson or continued development/rehabilitate talents like Livingston, or the under rated careers of a YOUNG SESSIONS *who improved every year and had a career and journey through out the entire NBA and through out his entire career and was VERY UNDER RATED

Mike James *the YOUNG ONE that I think The Sun's signed to a training camp deal or possible unguaranteed deal*

Quinn Cook *ex Dukie that played 4years that we once had interest in during the Phil Saga*

Norris Cole
Tony Douglas

Markel Brown

Anthony Brown
Jabari Brown

Reasonable TRADES??
With the cap space we have after a CA trade, that I would NOT USE DRAFT PICKS on except for 1 2nd rounder at best but unlikely to even do so....

Will Barton with Jameer Nelson who was the BEST POINT GUARD LAST SEASON for the Denver Nuggets, outplaying the player I once wanted to draft in Mudiay
DJ Augustine

Semaj Christian
Terry Rozier/Marcus Smart

TJ Warren to play point forward but is in a contract year, while I wouldn't give up draft picks for him, he is someone to keep an eye on
Especially if we do in fact get mixed in to a trade with The Sun's/Cleveland

Shabazz Muhumadd which TWOLVES pulled their QO to make him a UFA that we can possibly sign to a cap friendly deal or even a VET MIN deal after we move CA, however I WOULD PREFER NO PLAYER OPTIONS

To give BRIGGS CREDIT, he had many mentions of many of these players, including Seth Curry, Christian Wood, TJ Warren

Ntilikina should finally be the real long-term starter. We just need to buy some time with a vet until we want to throw him into the fire, hopefully later this season.

That is the direction the NBA is heading to and why Houston wanted CP3 in addition to Harden who are both ball dominant
It makes DEFENDING such talent so much harder....

something Philly, Sun's are trying to be, Dallas, and even Brooklyn are trying to do...
establishing a ROLE/SYSTEM that is fun to watch, fun to play, effective, even before adding SUPREME TALENT to the roster would appeal to future FREE AGENTS

Now if they can also play DEFENSE, it is even better
IT IS GREAT IF WE CAN FIND such players on multiyear deals that

Prior to Durant *adding him just gives GS an UNSTOPPABLE talent unless you can put players like Giannes/Davis/Kawaii/Towns together, then u can add in anyone from Jae Crowder/Patrick Beverely/Avery Bradley or whoever to fill in

Such a team can switch whenever and defend differently and is harder for OFFENSES to anticipate on how to gameplan as such talents have the ability to play 1v1 DEFENSE and STILL HELP/DOUBLE TEAM and recover in time with TEAM WORK... basically having GS philosophy on DEFENSE but which even MORE PHYSICAL TALENT
DEFENSE ALSO STARTS WITH OFFENSE/REBOUNDING on BOTH THE DEFENSIVE END/OFFENSIVE END, in order to beat a team like GS, you must make players like Curry, Klay, Durant, use energy on OFFENSE and DEFENSE
Possibly POSTING UP on CURRY and others to wear them out with no LEGS to shoot in the 4th quarter

Now that is what GS has with MULTIPLE VERSATILE TALENTS ON BOTH OFFENSE AND DEFENSE that can play on and off the ball, with INCREDIBLE SHOOTING ABILITY
ADD THAT IN WITH BALL/PLAYER MOVEMENT, HIGH BB IQ, GREAT CUTS, UNSELFISH BASKETBALL, looking for the HIGH % SHOT
