can someone give me the low-down on where and when and what position the following will play next year?

KT
Malik
Sweetney
Butler
Taylor
JYD

Do we have to endure ANOTHER season with KT starting? I mean we havent won with him in the SL in the 4 years he's been there!

Maybe we can swap him off on the Orlando Magic. Maybe for Kato and their draft pick

i have no clue

bringing malik and mo told me two things - kurt and sweets are on the way out. malik and mo are untradeable for at least another year, and in jyd's and malik's case, two. only a team like us would take back those salaries.

we're finding out that b/c of the extention, kurt is tough to trade so it will have to be for a lesser player OR one of same contract length. and i don't see us getting a quality big in return for kurt, unless we package him with sweets.

total roster mismanagement b/c we're stuck for next season.

getting rid of KT would accomplish a lot. Butler is 6'10 and blocks shots therefore he's our center. Rose and JYD play multiple positions so they're not a problem although we could afford to lose JYD more. Taylor isa nice scoring option off the bench occasionally.

Good point, the center would be the shot blocking hustler we get in the Kurt trade.

Mo Taylor battles for the existing pf spot and sweetney is traded at the deadline.

I'd assume we'll trade at least one and be back down to 4 PFs, which was a non-issue to everyone before the trade deadline. I never heard Briggs or Fish complain about having 4 back then.

Whatever happens, we need to find a way to get more than 19-22 mins a game for Mike Sweetney when he's not in foul trouble. Last night was borderline retarded. They couldn't guard him and we did them a favor by not putting him back in.
