We need an above the rim/rim protector to balance this lineup out.  These two players below are not signed yet, impressed me with their play at Vegas.   Hopefully one can get invited to trainning camp.

Just reading that Dallas is interested to sign James , due to his shot blocking skills.

Dallas is looking good this year

Yeah . But he shot the ball poorly.  The only room we have left is for a rim protector.

Yes but DJ's nephew was drafted in the second round by Houston who will no doubt sign him...was hoping the C's would buy a second and take either him or Clarkson

What about Roscoe Smith?  If Green is moved (fingers crossed), he'd be another 3 with good size who can rebound.  I'd rather have him than Chris Johnson.

Isn't James already like 28-29 or something?  I'd rather have Oden, but if we're talking strictly summer league, what about Alex Oriakhi?  Sure, he's 6'9", but he has a 7'3" wingspan, I believe, and he's certainly used to the role.  Unfortunately, our frontcourt would continue to be the least intimidating in basketball, haha ;D  We can fix that in next year's draft, anyway.

Nick Johnson was drafted, though, so he isn't a free agent.  I think he was picked by the Rockets.

Yeah. Dont 2nd round picks get auto invites to trainning camp?

Put me down for Eric Moreland.  Also, remember when a ton of teams wanted Daniel Orton? ;D  Haha, that guy is just trying to stay in the league now.  He's been playing on the Wizards' summer league team.  I'd at least look into him, as well.

Even at the end of the game, we lined up in different formation that he hadn't seen and he called out our play before I got the ball. I heard him calling it out. -John Wall on Brad Stevens

Justin Hamilton's statline speaks for itself. Vegas average (18/7/3)

A 24-year old journeyman the size of a tank, i'd take it for cheap.
