Make Yao unbreakable![]()
We've been talking about the off season for a long time because of lebron, but this is just a general thread about what you want your team's off season to be like, semi-realistic at least.
For Phoenix I want them to stay with the transition phase, not to make any short sited moves, and set themselves up for a possible free agency splash in 2011 or 2012 since they aren't getting any free agents this year. Hypothetical scenario
- Resign Amare to whatever it takes
- Hill probably picks up his player option
- Frye gets greedy and opts for free agency, let him leave
- Don't match the long term offer some idiot GM gives Lou
- after VladRad picks up his player option for next season, trade Barbosa for his expiring contract (Don Nelson loves scrubs like Barbosa, this trade is done only cause Barbosa has a player option in 2011 that might kill PHX's chance at a free agent)
- buy VladRad out of his last year
- sign Rodney Carney to a 1 year 2 million deal with a team option for 2011
- sign Kurt Thomas to a 1 year 3 million deal with a team option for 2011
- draft Alexey Shved in the 2nd round
- resign Collins for the vet min
Lopez / Thomas / Collins
Amare / Clark / Griffin
Hill / Dudley / Clark
J-Rich / Carney / Shved
Nash / Dragic / Shved
2011 or 2012 is when the Suns make a big splash, not right now. This team wouldn't win any championships, but it would play better defense than this years' team, still win 50+ games and probably make the 2nd round, and there'd be tons of cap flexibility down the road.

we staaaaaaaaaaaaaacked
<--------------------
Not trying to be a , but limit the Lebron talk in this thread. If your team has a shot at getting Lebron then obviously that's worth mentioning, but talk about other as well.
+1 we have enough threads to recognize Lebron to dallas but.........
Does that now include Dallas IYHO?
If Chicago manages to steal Lebron from our hands, we look into Joe Johnson and Evan Turner obviously. The main is to get something with the Dust chip and move from there. We need a reliable second option for Dirk or this year will end up just like every year.
Since a new coach doesn't seem to be happening (unless we lure one in with Lebron) Carlisle needs to recognize his boy toy needs to be getting DNP most games and Roddy minutes need to be > Jason Terrys minutes. I have a feeling JET is gonna be next years JJ.
#1--I would try and address the PG situation and see if Derek Fisher would take a back-up role or, if there isn't any fantasy deals coming our way, find a more consistent 2nd PG to back up Fisher or vice-versa.
#2--Pay Phil Jackson an amount that would keep him in L.A. for the forseeable future. Give him at least $8-$10 Mil or the $12 mil he is making now to keep him
#3--Decide whether or not to move Bynum or to hope he stays healty...or, get him to the doctors of other noted knee injury sufferers and get him to stay healthy (not sure if that's ideal or more pipedream)
#4--Get better Laker girls...
That's all I can think of right now...
Hmmm... Spurs in the off season. Build a time machine and bring prime Duncan back.
Once I saw DoK start this thread I knew he had the potential of opening the floodgates with Mavfans and their LeBron talk.
But if I was the Mavs and I didn't have a realistic chance at LeBron, I would go after that Philly deal with the #2 pick and Brand for Dampier/Terry/or Barea.
If they want Butler or Beaubois then forget about it. Honestly I wouldn't want Dallas to make any major changes, and I honestly wouldn't mind making another run with the same lineup. (Except trading Damp for something). I really liked our roster at the end of the season I just think we need some more time to gel. The one exception is PLEASE Carlisle play Beaubois more. Its pointless to hold on to him if your not gonna play him at all
Nothing, really. Maybe adding a nice piece for MLE.
For Boston to polish a championship trophy.
Barring that, I wouldn't mind the Celtics keeping their top eight together. Once this core fades, we'll only have Big Baby, Perk, and Rondo, so it will be a whole new Celtics team. I kinda like this one.
Not permit the Suns to scratch.
P.S., I hope I don't need the Celtics for this, but, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth.
tee, hee.
<-----------
Not to be cast upon the tree of woe by the Celtics, but, grateful at the same time the Suns didn't cast us up there.
I God's, my pussy is showing. I hope Luva doesn't see it. He'll either get real mad, or, real horny.
In addition to LeBron
I fancy the idea of using the MLE on Mike Miller
Resigning Haywood is a must, probably.
This team will be so stacked that we can probably get veterans for cheap... Raja Bell? Kurt Thomas? Shaq?
we sta sta staaaaaaaacked.
When the SUNS win a le you'll be out of a job. What then?
Nice Conan reference.
I don't know, I've been doin' this since '86. Sometimes I wonder what it will actually feel like, and sometimes I honestly think about you fellows and your sufferings, and how you'd respond to ringage, the tears, the cathartic resonance would be enormous. {Deserving} does not exist in ringage. Has no place, it'd be like justice and justice has no place, but, you fellows would be "right." And right is pure.
get dirk and drop richard jefferson,bonner,mason,mc dyess
Uh, Swords, clean out the whooley boogers under the bed, Cubby is comin' a knockin'. And I'm as nervous as a sissy at Boy's Town.
Nash certainly fits the "White Knight" image, assuming he doesn't speak. I don't know many knights with Candian accents.
That awesome sign and trade Bosh for Bynum. It's a pipe dream but Bosh wants to come...
I got frozen burritos in the microwave, I'll be waiting.
tee, hee
3-point shooters, Splitter, and a solid perimiter defender would put the Spurs right back on top imo.
