PF/C -Trevor Booker
C -Greg Monroe
Wing - David Nwaba (Restricted)
PF/C - Alex Len (Only 25 years old)
Wing - James Ennis III
PF - Michael Beasley (All offense / No defense)
PG - Shabazz Napier
C - Kyle O'Quinn (Pure Grinder)
C - Brook Lopez (Wants to be starter)
PF/C - Montrezl Harrell (Restricted)

I'd love Booker, Len, Nwaba, Beasley, Ennis, Harrell or Napier on one year deals. That's the only way we get guys like this since we are capped out. Sometimes its better to be lucky than to be smart in free agency.

Some of these guys will get nice deals if they hold out longer, but maybe a couple will jump at the chance just to sign instead of waiting it out.

I'd like to get Nwaba or Ennis to add some depth on the wing. And I still think we need another ballhandler. If we could get Sato with the trade exception that would be ideal.

Ennis, Napier, KOQ would be pretty legit.

Napier is interesting. I haven't watched much of him, but it seems like he's improved, at least statistically, since his rookie season despite not being in one place for very long.

I've always like O'quinn; solid all around backup center. No real gaps in his game.

I’d say “Why?” on a lot of these 4s and 5s.

AD, Niko, and Randle will get the bulk of the minutes there and we have Diallo and Oak as backups.

Backcourt players, though, are guys we could use.

100%

I want Davis, Randle, and Niko to get the 96 minutes at the 4/5. Diallo should be able to handle any minutes needed outside of those 3.

I’d be down with Napier, Ennis, Graham (not listed but still available I believe) or Nwaba.

Don't forger -- if Hill is on the roster, he should be playing some 4 too.

And he's not a FA, but the realistic guy that would make me happiest is JJ Barea. Use a TPE on him and get Brewer for the min and I can go to camp with that. Then, we can re-visit the trade market in Jan and Feb

I could roll with that.

Just really hoping we can Barnes or Kemba during the season to add a third star or quasi-star to this team. The more I read about how many teams are going to have massive cap space next summer the more I start to think going the pure FA route won't work out.

Say we sign Brewer and Barea, who’s your 5 to close out games?

i'd sign him just to not have to play him anymore. dude legit put up his best numbers against the Pels. more RPG against NOLA than any other squad and only more PPG against the knicks.
