We should try to get Cheapshot Horry. He would be a really good fit for our defense and he can hit that 3 ball. What that means is that we can trade Wally and keep our spread the floor lineup. He probably wouldn't be able to run with the small lineup, but he would be a 2nd best Posey for us. It would keep with our general strategy, but I don't think he would sign until the playoffs.

That is actually a great idea. I don't know if he'd sign with us but man if he did we'd be able to ditch Wally and Horry is a great defender. Also playing in the Spurs system that is basically us without the dominating big.
 
Is Horry retired? If hes not hes really old. Heck lets just bring back Shawn Kemp.
 
Rather push all my chips in for ZO...Although it would be a long shot...

Even though Horry plays solid post defense, I don't want my bigs camped out on the 3 point line... It just encourages LeIso...

Horry has nothing left in the tank.. he can't even grab a rebound anymore. In the Lakers-Spurs series it was down to just seconds, the shot was bricked and the Spurs had a chance to tie.. it was an easy rebound but it slipped through his hands, bounced off and hit his thigh.. Lakers ball. Game over. I don't like my bigs to be draggin oxygen tanks up and down the floor.
 
There will be guys on the market as we get closer to the deadline that will be able to fill this type of role... We just need teams to sort themselves out more...

I'd look at guys like Darius Songaila, Craig Smith, Ryan Gomes, Joe Smith (the one!), Nick Collison, Channing Frye, Ike Diogu, Mikki Miller and Brad Miller... Not that all of them will be good fits, but I see those guys as realistic options...

Id love to get Joe Smith back and it could happen because last year the Thunder(Sonics then) made a deal to get Kurt Thomas in the off season and then dealt him by the trading deadline. The only thing i would hate is to give up a 1st rounder which i believe is what the Spurs gave up to get Thomas. Smiths contract is expiring too so it fits perfectly with what we are trying to do.
 
How about this:

Cleveland Trades

Sasha
Jawad Williams

Washington Trades

Darius Songaila
Future 2nd round pick

I think this would be a great trade for us.

Why does washington do this? Jawad is a NBDL player, Sasha is expiring. Songaila is young with potential, plus they give us a pick. Trade makes less than zero sense for Washington.

He hasn't been getting playingtime over there.
 
Two people i just dont see coming here is 1.) Marcus Camby for trying to crack Danny Ferry's skull with his hammer fist in during a game 2.) Darius Songaila for back handing LeBron in the cheek during the playoffs.
