If rumors are correct and we are moving Lopez, who will play the 5? I heard rumors about Pek, but I can't see that happening.

Do we move Ego for Granger? Do we go after Copeland?

Granger would come off the books next season and I know he doesn't have many fans, but he and TE at the 2 sounds better than Ego and who the hell knows at the 3.

42, I NEED ANSWERS!

Unless we give Gravy and Lopez to Sac, we still have them as options for trading to get a SF or Center

Is it plausible to move ego to Indiana for granger and a couple of 1s, then package those picks and Gravy and Lopez for Pek?

I love the additions but we won't have a 5 or a 3. No bueno.

The 3 will most likely be a rotation of AFA, Tyreke, and Miller.

Indy won't take Gordon. They maxed Hibbert, just resigned West, and George is going to be getting paid soon. Don't have the money.

Gordon and Granger have roughly equal yearly salaries I think. If they traded Granger for EG, I don't think it would be a problem financially.

True. Maybe they'd want EG over any SG available next year, don't know who'd be out there.

Granger is expiring. It works now but not long term. How are they going to max out George with Gordon and Hibbert already maxed out?

If we got a big 3 that can help with rebounding in cruch time and a solid backup at the 5 like mahinmi that can take a pounding, i'd be so down with starting ryno at the 4 and AD at the 5. Just can't have tyreke at the 3 imo with that lineup.

Assuming the acquisition of Evans results in a loss of Lopez - either via trade or buyout, I see the Front Office moving Vasquez for either a SF or a C. Something like a CJ Miles from Cleveland.

Then with the two year, 2.5 MLE, signing a guy like Chris Wilcox, a player like that to be the stop-gap center.

Or do it the other way, trade Vasquez for the C and sign the cheap $2.5 Mill stop-gap SF
