Dorell Wright!?

We've been wondering whether we'll get him since we drafted Delon lol. We'll see I guess, wouldn't be the worst option

What's Phillie's plan with all those bigs now after signing Saric to a 2 year deal ?

question ....does lowry play better with a headband?

He had a triple double when he wore it for the first time I think, so yes.

Waiters?

Waiters?

no

Waiters?

No. We don't need another 2, which Waiters is almost exclusively, We need a 3 or 3/4. Plus it's Dion Waiters. Luckily Philly and the Nets have cap space and a need for a chucker like Dion.

I would love Dorrell Wright. As a 15th man you're really just looking for somebody with an above average NBA skill. D. Wright can knock down 3's. He seems like a really great guy, and has been a part of some top caliber teams.

We had a discussion in the Poeltl thread that got me wondering how good we are in the half court.

We had a 107 ORating last year, but that includes both half court and transition.

I managed to find a breakdown I found extremely interesting.

We had the #1 efficiency in transition last year - the only team to average over 1.20 points per transition possession.

In the half court, we were also above average at 0.93 pts/possession, compared to league average of 0.90.

One thing that struck me about that number is that Demar shooting 33.8% from 3 looks inefficient compared to our overall 107 ORT, but considering we only score .93 from half court, any 3 pt shooter over 31% actually raises our half court efficiency.

Would monroe be a bad fit at PF with JV?

yep, he's a pretty slow dude, even for a center. not a floor spacer either. Monroe makes more sense next to some rim protecting athletic 4 who can shoot. not many of those in the league.

He'd be a nice backup for us, probably an unhappy one though.

Luckily we can't afford either of Waiters or Monroe...

[Maury]

I don't want anything to do with Monroe or waiters.

Josh Lewenberg: Raptors have 1 roster spot to fill. It may come down to camp but they’re looking for an experienced wing, preferably someone that can hit 3s 4 hours ago – via Twitter JLew1050


Alonzo Gee?
Chase Budinger?
Damjan Rudez?
Tayshaun Prince?
Gerald Green?
Alan Anderson?

I do not know about threes or consistency but Green made one incredible shot against us in the playoffs where he levitated from one side of the lane to other. I do not believe I saw it in top 10 plays of the week but it deserved to be there. He did have some useful years for the suns when they were a better team.

He's essentially an older T-Ross. Lacks the consistency and mental fortitude to really be the player he should be. I still Like Green though, and wouldn't mind him as a depth signing.
