The only concern is LeBron, imho. A role playing wing with some size who you just bring out as a defensive match up specialist would be fine with me. Ideally you'd have a guy just like Salmons, only a little bigger.

Remember when Kobe was nearly dealt to the Bulls? A big part of that never happening was Deng was going back to Lakers in package and Kobe wanted Deng. I think that mutual respect has lasted through the years.
100% pure speculation on my part.
Is Okafor finished? Could we get 12-18 mins out of him at 3-6 mil?

We really can only make some moves to improve the bench (personally, i'd like to have a good offensive spark plug for when demar/lowry aren't on and someone needs to keep the offence humming), or trade for a young stud or star. We can't just sign Kevin Martin or Calderon or someone decent to start- we're pretty good at every position, either with an above average starter or a good, high-potential youngster. Is there really anyone on this team you'd send to the bench for a decent starter off the FA market? Especially factoring in the overpay that would inevitably happen.@Boymusic66

I like Lu but he has a LOT of mileage on him. Probably 26,000 minutes by season's end (including playoffs) and turning 29 soon. By way of comparison, Lowry is a year younger and might have roughly 15,000 minutes at season's end. One might argue that that speaks to Deng's durability and Lowry's lack thereof, but I think Deng's pretty risky dude to commit to given how hard Thibs worked him.
I'd prefer to offer a smaller contract to a super glue guy like Thabo Sefolosha and save our powder dry for a true low-post scorer or a legit franchise guy should one become available.
