MY List:
1.Gerald Green (Re-Foucsed unbelievable athlete)
2. Michael Beasley(HEAD CASE BUT CAN SCORE)
3. Devin Ebanks (Could be solid when give a chance)
4.Antawn Jamison (can put up points)
5. Andrei Kirilenko (very solid defender)
6. Mickael Pietrus (Solid shooter good athlete)
7.Matt Barnes (Nothing exciting about him)

Honestly, I'd rather go cheap this offseason on a SF. I think we'll see a lot of 3 guard stretches anyway.

Someone will probably overapay for Batum, and be stuck with a big contract and not enough production.

I wouldn't mind us overpaying Batum but other than that I agree with you

Instead of overpaying for batum or signing anyone of those scrubs I rather the hornets give Aminu or Darius Miller the chance

He's 23 and averages 14 ppg. His production will only go up. We will have to overpay to get talent here via FA. So why not overpay a guy who is young, talented and has plenty of potential?

Aminu is the definition of a scrub. I don't think it's a stretch to say that Miller is probably more polished than AFA

A motivated Gerald Green is far, far from a scrub

He would fit perfectly on this team IMO

Interesting. Would have to see what the coach thinks about this one. Especially since Monty likes defense.

Didn't he say he wants to stay in Boston?


Next year you have Marvin Williams and Dorrell Wright next year too.

Definitely agree. I don't think we need much at SF. Just someone that knows his role, plays defense and can hit a spot up 3.

This. Just look at what playing time did for guys like Vasquez and Smith. Finding out what Aminu and Miller have or don't have is much more useful than adding 5 more wins because we signed a stop gap veteran.

Jamison to a one year deal. Definitely not the future but should be a solid veteran presence for davis

agreed. if we become a contender somehow and are around the 6th or 7th slot at the break, maybe then make a run at a trade for a SF (if that's a gap, as we think it will be).

I think Green could be a nice option at a good price

I think some contenders may try and get him to come off their bench, but he may be more attracted to going to a place where he will get more PT.
