Brevin Knight cut cut today. We should definately take a look at him for the backup PG spot.

What Mullin should have done was gotten him as well in the JRich deal! Maybe Knight can be signed for no more than 3 million a year, that would be ideal and the guy would be a great backup PG, one of the best there is right now of not the best

BWright is no Garnett! He has all the development ahead of him. Garnett can do it all

As much as i hate to see Jrich go, I have to think that there is something beyond what we know.

a) JRich isnt completely healthy ...still (did ANYONE watch him in the playoffs)

or

b) Another trade for a big name (KG OBVIOUSLY)

OR

c) Take some of that money and sign R. Lewis

PG. Baron
SG. Jackson
SF. Al
PF. Rashard Lewis
C. Biedrins

We would now have size with Lewis being 6'10. And this puts Al in the 3 spot where he should be. Though i think he would get a little over paid, because we have the cap room, i dont see it being a bad idea. That is, if we cant get Gasol.

I like your thinking, but Lewis is a small forward even though hes 6'10. He plays small. So i wouldnt want Lewis at the 4, I think Al is a better option.

I like Gasol at the 4 though

Rashard Lewis is a sF and not much of a rebounder, like Harrington so no point getting him. He also wants 15 million plus so that would just destroy any salary relief from trading JRich migya make the ring fall on ya

Latest rumor Monta, POB, Brandan Wright for KG and they want AB instead of Harrington! Forget that trade that is too much to give Minny!

Maybe you take out Wright for AB then maybe I might consider it!

Who would make that trade for Brandan Wright, POB, Monta and AB?

I wouldn't mind seeing a frontline of Brandan Wright, Garnett and Harrington! With Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson. But Minny is asking for all of our prospects! **** that!

yeah, screw that and besides, that trade will not even come close to working salary wise. We need to give them back about 26 mill in salaries to make a KG trade (his salary + trade kicker). Unless he waives his trade kicker but even then we will need to get to about 20 mil in salaries. Those players do not even come close to that.

There is no way you can read into these kg rumors and pull out that Mully is going after amare.

Well you never know. He did with Monty... he got fired. But then that was only because Nelson wanted to come back and help. He said Jrich would never get traded, but he did. He didn't work out Wright and used Yi as a smokescreen to build hype on Yi and less on Wright.

KG could just as well be a diversion on getting another household name. Look at Dallas, the Lakers. They're trying real hard to get KG. Mullin likes to build up hype and/or expectations on news/rumors but quietly goes after another name.
