We all know we need an upgrade at the 3. Ideally, someone who has solid perimeter defensive skills AND is at least enough of a shooter to attract some attention and space the floor. Even if he's only a 12 - 18 pt per night guy.

I swear I've looked at available FA's, realistic trade possibilities and the draft. I can't come with a solution that I like.

This has been discussed to some extent, I know, but I'd be interested in hearing opinions on realistic possibilities on this specifically.

That would be a massive upgrade. Iguodola is the most obvious answer, but I have a feeling he'll either find a more attractive situation and/or more money somewhere else.

The best SF that are realistically available that I am aware of are:

Ig
Corey Brewer
Martell Webster
Dorrel Wright

What about another banger down low, and move Anderson and AD to that 3\4 position at time? Say a player like big baby, Ryno big baby and Anderson 5,4,3...

Just saying cause I don't see any valuable options either. Tracy Mcgrady?

I just don't see us getting a guy via free agency. I really think we either trade for our sf of the future or we trade for a guy who could step in and be a short term solution there and try out luck in the draft or free agency next year.

I could see us trading for a SG who can also pay SF. A guy like Courtney Lee maybe? He's just the first guy that comes to mind. Denver also has plenty of guys we could use not counting Iggy. The most realistic trade Imo would be one for a guy like Shawn Marion. He's cheap and I think Dallas wouldn't mind parting ways with him.

All in all, I see us making a change at sf this offseason, I just don't see it being a big splash.

the best option for sf this summer will be drafting one other than porter or trading for one. wilson chandler.
