    With him getting paid by Philly, the amount we pay won't matter, just where he wants to go (assuming he clears waivers). Am I correct in this? He would be a good pickup though, could help teach professionalism.

      We need scorer Elton can do that and Amir the crap cannot do that for us. Move Ed to center to help JV and trade Linas or JJ to get true SF.

      starting lineup

      PG Lowry, Jose
      SG DD, TR
      SF ?, Laudry ---- Linas or JJ trade both
      PF Barg, Elton,ACY
      C JV, ED, Mr Gray

      This a real playoff team

          He goes to the highest bidder. (I believe it is a sealed bid) The team must have cap space, so their will be limited teams available to put a bid in.

            Amir taking passes from Jose will be a major part of the second unit. Amir will earn his paycheck. No need to amnesty his contract...it ain't that bad.

                Brand > Amir no doubt, I don't think anyone would argue that. The problem with this is that Brand would be likely asking for far too much money and would be backing up Bargs. Chances are he isn't ready to be a backup yet. If by some stroke of God he settled for a reasonable salary and was ok with being the first guy off the bench, this would be great. Not gonna happen.
                It's not up to him. He got amnestied so he's on waivers now. Anyone can pick him up he doesn't get a say.

                    Amir Johnson is just crap and bad contract we should get rid of.


                    In the case for Elton, he is 33 yrs and getting old but giving him 20 min a game he can provide relief for Barg. In addition, Elton can put up 10-14 pts and grab six rebounds on night to night basic. Where Amir is great for two games next 10, he is now where to be found.
                    You made it sound like Amir amnestied. Not cool! NOT COOL!

                                A declining Elton is still >> a never going to get there Amir

                                Better defensively
                                Better offensively
                                Lower turnovers / PFs
                                A consumate professional/2 time allstar/rookie of the year to mentor Ed/Jonas on their post moves vs ... the NBA leader in following p@rnstars

                                A no brainer.
