SLAB said:I don't know...If I could play GM SLAB for a minute, here would be my plan.
-Absolutly nobady is safe from the axe. If someone calls and offers to take a long contract for expiring ones...Take it. I'm going into full on rebuild mode.
-Use the MLE for a physical, young player. Stromile Swift. Tyson Chandler. Reggie Evans...Or maybe even Danny F'n Fortson. He's a punk, and we all hate him, but he's exactly the thug type of player we need.
-Package a Corliss/Mobley or Corliss/Jackson for whatever we can get. Corliss has no future with the team, his style doesnt fit us. Jackson/Mobley are what sell the takers.
-I'm hoping Petrie has a pick waiting in the dark to suprise us all. Some Euro with huge skills that will eventually be really good. My thought? Go with Wayne Simien, if he falls. Or for the darkhorse in the second round. 7'9 Sun Ming Ming...(If he declared)
I dunno...I'd go into rebuilding mode. I'm not "Feeling" this team. I look foreward to the off-season overhaul.

VF21 said:ANY member of the team could go. Peja no longer has a free pass, IMHO.
hrdboild said:Maybe picking up a defensive specialist too would be the most effective way of improving the team. (Oh yeah, and a physical big man and a perimeter defender/playmaker SG.)
arwen undomiel said:Agreed on the defensive specialist, especially if he can instill some discipline in the Kings to never stop playing good defense - the sort who's not afraid to bench a player who just won't stay on his assigned player. Sometimes I wonder if the Kings don't have some sort of mass ADD that keeps them for playing solid defense for more than 10 minutes a night.
I thought it ws TR Dunne.Pacboy said:I thought Elson Turner was our defensive specialist
