Earl Watson 3yrs - good back up PG, great defender on the ball
Raja Bell 2yrs $3min - always liked his game since he was a 76er. hard working defender. good offensive game as well.
Dale Davis 1yr vet min - still a good rebounder/shot blocker/big body in the middle

Swift - Full MLE

Marb/Watson
Craw/Bell/rookie
JYD/Ariza/rookie
Swift/Sweet
BOGUT/Davis/Baker

not sure Swift is only a MLE player, but we will see. I think your better off getting Steven Hunter w/ the MLE and going after Swift by using Nazr and a #2 in a sign and trade... something like that.

There's good backup PGs in this draft. Nate Robinson, Jarred Jack.. guys like that.

Swift stinks and on top of that he's not a center at 6'9'' I'd much rather go after eddie griffin, Kwame, chandler, camby or dalembert

watson will go to a place where he could start - milwaukee maybe?

i like gadzuric better than hunter but to his defense, i haven't seen enough of hunter play. gadzuric and jyd in the 2nd unit would cause a major ruckus on the court. and both play ALL out.

i would split the MLE between gadz AND hunter. 3 years/$9 mil a piece.

i think a team like atlanta will probably overpay for a dalembert/swift type. they'll probably move harrington to the 4.

not for nothing but toine, swift, AND sar may fall to the MLE cracks.

not milwalkee. both of their PGs are on the same level. mike james and maurice williams. Maybe he goes to Houston...if not I'd like him as a back up

Don't forget they have TJ Ford as well who has been injured. I don't think Earl Watson is going to get a starting gig anywhere unless he sticks with the Grizz, MAYBE with the Heat since their PG situation is a real mess but I see Riles going for someone with a little more starpower or a Veteran looking for a one or two year type of deal.

oh damn! i forgot about TJ Ford. I wonder if he'll ever be the same after that injury though. It's amazing how serious it actually was. all he did was fall like players do all the time.

Miami is happy with Wade and Damon "3ball" Jones I think.

the Rockets PG situation is a mess.

Watson would definitely be a good backup for Marbury since he's not good enough to cause a contraversy but is a very solid backup.
