Maybe just without the pick but they may not do it. I'd only really do this if we can secure Rasheed though. Then try sign Gooden back (even though he is not ideal) for the vets minimum when he realizes there is no money out there for him. A team of the following would be pretty nice;

Parker/Hill
Mason Jr/Manu/McClinton
Jefferson/Marion
Duncan/Blair/Marion
Sheed/Gooden/Mahinmi

Don't know if I like the idea of having Shawn Marion, I would feel more strongly about it if we didn't get DeJuan Blair. Don't know if I like my own idea here yet....

Thoughts?

Somehow, you've not only gotten us Marion for $6mil (Bonner+Finley) - no way he'd sign for that - but you've also signed us Sheed, who is in Boston, and Drew, who someone will sign for more than the vet min. You've also completely ignored the fact that we just traded for Richard Jefferson, who is already our starting SF. My thoughts? Go back to GM school.
