So now that we got Jack shit, what's the plan fellas?

Kings looking to trade the 8th pick for a veteran. Think we could convince them to take Smith or Jennings for it?

I would think Jennings is definitely worth the 8th pick but then we wouldn't have a PG. There is no way Exum and Smart drop there. The Lakers are for sure drafting one of those guys at #7 is one of them are left. I don't think they could take on Smith's contract.

^^ Would make perfect sense, now that he has matured a bit I think he could have a very productive 5 years ahead of him in that 6th man role... Perhaps a team like the Thunder, or even the Heat, would benefit from his scoring punch...

He excelled as a 6th man here. I'm sure he could elsewhere. I'm just not sure we actually let him go yet. Without him we are thin at the guard position.

^^ yeah but we can replace stuckey with our first round dra....... Damn it haha,

I have always thought that Glen Robinson III would turn out to be a better pro than college player, his range probably falls in the 18-28 bracket,

Actually I think a lot of good role players could be going in the late first round, would really like to try and make a move to get an early/mid 20's pick... What can we realistically offer for something of this value/?

Outside of trading Monroe, I'm not sure we have much for assets that we can move. I think teams would be interested in Bynum as part of the package, but we really need him as a backup. I think the best move might be no move at this point. This roster is really tough to do anything with. Gores and Joe D really messed up.

The Pistons have interest in Anthony Morrow, who I think would be an amazing fit here. He's a knock down 3 point shooter. We have really needed a shooter like that. I'd take him over Stuckey at this point. Stuckey is the better player, but Morrow seems like he would be a better fit.

^^ Yep we need a player like Morrow - a true specialist from deep - would work well coming on for 13-17 minutes per game...

But I do think a move needs to be made, I think I will cry if we go in with Monroe AND Smith, it was just a disgusting fit - holding each other back and just playing congested basketball. And I KNOW neither will be willing to be a 6th man... I truly think one needs to go for Pistons to move forward..

Its actually quite possible they'd like Smith. They were rumored to have some interest last year and they want a defensive oriented, rim protecting 4 next to Demarcus Cousins. We'd have to take their bad contracts back though.

I think Smith for Landry,Derrick Williams and 8 is doable. Maybe we throw in Tony Mitchell or a future 2nd.

Gotta look for cheap shooters and Morrow would be a good start. Fredette also intrigues me as a buy low option and I'd love to trade for Steve Novak. I love me some Patty Mills too

I think Fredette just needs an opportunity in the right system too. He's no superstar obviously, but I feel like he can be a solid role player. I do like your scenario with the Kings too. I don't think Derrick Williams is a bust yet. I think he's just barely had an opportunity to play because he's always had good players in front of him. He can shoot outside fairly well too. I'd definitely take a chance on him.

This article sums things up well.

This all comes down to poor leadership in the front office. Rookie mistakes from a rookie owner and a GM who made bad decisions. This team is going to need a miracle to contend anytime soon.

If we can move Smith / Monroe for #8 + Williams that would be a great, great deal for us.

Williams SUITS and by all acconts like coming off the bench as that tweener forward, can play the 3 or 4, gives us a few different lineups we can play with... And still just 23 years old...

Would solve the log jam of starter quality big man we have, and give us depth off the bench and a chance to land a solid prospect....

We NEED to sign Jimmer, would work so well, he is the perfect player we should be targeting...
