At least he knows he can't shoot 3's. Now if he would learn that he can't shoot from outside the paint he would shoot 55% from the field

Take that chart, make it all red except for a 2 foot circle around the hoop, and you've got one for Josh Smith.

Tyreke's can't look much better, but his fade away looks so tight.

Pelicans definitely don't want him either, especially at that salary.

Aminu is the chief that was promised. Resign that boy to a max contract! 23 year old who is the best rebounder/defender on that list. Also, ever since he took over the PG position for Nigeria he has been making some really creative passes. Unfortunately most of them were to Stiemsma/Ajinca who absolutely blow at catching a ball.

I'd be pissed if we signed R. Jefferson over Garcia.
Is this a joke? Garcia is nothing but trash. I would take Jefferson over him all day.

You want to get 2 SFs at around the minimum. One who will play offense, one will play defense. Unless a massive change is in the works, Evans will still see time w/ 2 other guards so you don't need a 30MPG guy.

Honestly, if they brought back Southerland as the offense guy and Aminu as the defense guy, and Miller as a hybrid of the two, I'd be fine. Asik/Davis will cover for the mistakes of the offense SF. Aminu can play with and help Anderson on the boards. None of them should play more than about 20MPG

An older, locker room guy would be a nice addition though. If Stephen Jackson wants to come on board to be team mascot, I'm down with that. He's a badass motherfricker.

Ya Jefferson put up decent stats on the JAZZ..... Garcia put up similar numbers and played much better defense on an actual playoff team. Jefferson will get eaten alive in our division if we start him. Just like he got eaten alive on defense when he played for the Spurs. I guess everyone has a short memory about that though.

I hate to be this guy again but...

In what world is an NBA GM doing a "great job" when we're now entering year 4 of Al-Farouq motherfricking Aminu starting at SF for your team

How is there anyway anyone can justify that? I'm sorry, that's fricking unacceptable

I'm sorry, but did I miss something? Is free agency over and the trade deadline passed?

I'll shut up when/if we actually make a move

But as of right now I'm calling like I sees it

No, but I think everyone is just mentally preparing themselves for another year of Aminu. He's arguably the best option at this point. Let me stress *arguably

Start

Evans
Davis
Asik

2nd Unit
