i say we will obviously not resign belinelli, landry or kaman. I then think we will sign Ian mahimi. I believe we may trade Jack before the end of the off season to groom rivers to become an NBA PG. I also think we will S&T Gordon to the Suns for starter quality C. Finally, we will sign Mayo for 6 mil a year and have him as the starting SG. Our lineup would look like this:

PG:Rivers/Vasquez/Dyson
SG:Mayo/Shannon Brown/Rivers
SF:Anderson/Aminu/Henry
PF:Davis/Smith/Anderson
C:Gortat/Mahimi/Smith

I think we will probably receive a least 1 one 1st round from the Suns as well.

Anderson at the 3?

Rivers and Mayo back-court?

Two thumbs down. WAY down.

I was with you up until this point. All indications point to us matching Gordon, and even if we did do a S&T, I don't think the Suns would be so willing to give up Gortat.

The Suns deal looks highly unlikely right now, and I think that they're up against the cap, so a Gordon for Gortat deal wouldn't work out without our taking money back (which would make signing Mayo impossible).

If we still have Kaman's bird rights, which I'm pretty sure we don't:
-send a 2094 2nd rounder to the Bulls for Rip Hamilton (who can still guard 3s). I believe we have the space to do this still.
-overpay Kaman to convince him to stick around one more year

If we renounced him:
-See if we convince the Nuggets to send us Koufos for a 2nd rounder. Maybe Birdman if not.
-Take our lumps at the 3 this year with Aminu, Henry, and Miller.

This is exactly why we wouldn't do this:

I've always loved Terrance Williams and wish we would pick him up. I'd really like to see what Monty could do with him... I think the frontcourt is kind of set, especially if they bring Watkins back..

They're not going to give up Motie for Kaman, and the whole point of sign and trades with unrestricted free agents is to help get them on teams that are above the cap, which Houston is far from being.

S&T Gordon for LeBron James. Tell him if he stays in Miami, he'll always be in Wade's shadow because Wade will have one more ring then him and Wade's been there his entire career.

Sign Sir Charles and Karl Malone for the minimum just for shits & giggles. No worries, they'll be put on IR as "old" most of the year anyway.

Trade 2013 & 2014's first & second round picks and for Hibbert.

Jack/Vasquez
Rivers
LeBron
Davis/Anderson
Hibbert/Smith

With Barkley & Malone coming off the bench for 20-30 games.

Championship

Yeah let's have MJ drop 30 pounds and play for us while his sons temporarily take over the bobcats. Then all we need to do is call up Stockton and iceman Gervin and we're gonna be unstoppable !!!

Why don't we cook up some NOLA jazz gumbo voodoo and bring Pistol Pete back to life while we're at it?!?!?!
