Mock Roster (Revision)

PG Gary Payton/Fisher/Pargo
SG Kobe Bryant/Rush
SF Devean George/Fox/*Travis Outlaw
PF *Kendrick Perkins/Medvedenko/Madsen
C Shaquille Oneal/

*Draft picks

That is what may truly happen

Note that Perkins and Outlaw are both highschoolers who are the 2nd and 3rd best Highschoolers other than Lebron.

Outlaws stock went down to where the lakers can get a steal in the draft.

I like the roster, L-brain. Are we going to have a PF free agent acqusition or Payton will be our lone FA representitive??

I'm not sure if we can rely on our PF positions on high schoolers, even if they are very talented. Amare is the excemption.

Agreed, an established vet like Malone would certainly help the cause.

Don't get me wrong I luv Kendrick, Outlaw, and even Lang. By putting them against the likes of Duncan, Garnett, Webber, Rasheed Wallace, Amare, Brand, J. O'Neal......etc. is the same thing as putting Lebron against.....Kobe, TMAC, Vince, Paul Pierce, Michael Finley.......etc.

No contest both ways you look at it!!!!!

Lets get a veteran PF!!!!

However I luv the idea of Perkins.

I would love to put a PF on the roster but I don't know if Malone would take the 1.1 Million that would be left.

I think we need to use the MLE on a PF and use the LLE or Minimum contracts on a PG like Daniels or Miller (if he doesn't get an MLE contract)

Since Denver wants a First Round Pick, how about:

Fisher
Slava
#24 Pick

for
Signed Juwan Howard

Sign Payton to MLE
Sign Lue to LLE
Sign Kendall Gill to minimum
Re-Sign Horry
Draft Brian Cook (if he bulks up he could be a great C for the triangle)

C-Shaq/Cook
PF-Howard/Horry/Madsen
SF-George/Gill/Fox
SG-Kobe/Rush
PG-Payton/Lue
