I'd take Spencer Hawes.  7 footer who can spread the floor to behind the arc.  I'll take that for limited minutes mainly against opposing bench players.

I wanted to say Andrew Bogut, but he's missed 10+ games in 9 of his 12 career seasons.

Hopefully a new name from training camp. Dixon, andrew white, or someone like that. Unless those guys are already counting on our roster

Why hopefully? You want yet another rookie on this team that will play more in Portland than he will in Boston? Isn't Stevens saddled with enough players with absolutely no NBA experience?

If a player is added it will be someone who has experience, not someone who is considered worse than Bird and Allen, the Cs two way contract players. There will be no training camp players earning a contract for that open spot.

I voted for Tyler Zeller.

If we can still get him at this point on a minimum deal, he adds back a little of the continuity we lost.

He plays center and we could use another big.

He has played with Kyrie before back in Cleveland before LeBron returned.

He has shown a willingness to sit on the end of the bench and then come in for minutes when needed.

Definitely an intriguing option. Never thought about the fact that Zeller did play with Kyrie before.

But he's still pretty low on the list of options for me lol.

Just a quick shout out to remind Danny, historically a fan of undersized PFs, that I'm available.

If Zeller could rebound and defend, oh wait, never mind....

I'd go with Bogut. With Baynes on the bench/in the lineup there's less pressure on Bogut to play as many games and gives us good injury insurance.

1. Bogut
2. TAllen
3. TRob
4. Hawes
5. Green

My order of wants for the last spot.

Looks like a majority want either Bogut or Robinson.

I agree. My first choice is Robinson, second Bogut. If he wasn't so injury prone, Bogut would be my dream right now, but now I hesitate a bit on him. Depends if his medicals check out and everything.

At this point, with so many new faces on the team, I'd like to bring back Gerald Green.  While he may not fill a necessary position for us, his familiarity from last year could be helpful...and he's proven that he can still influence a game, which is quite handy from someone who is probably in one of the last roster spots on a team.
