With Conley down and Memphis applying for a hardship exemption, one of the prime remaining point guards will be off the board. Prime is a relative term in this context. They're looking at Toney Douglas, Kendall Marshall and Will Bynum. I've always been fond of Bynum. Norris Cole, in China, is apparently now injured. What a Surprise. And Chalmers still isn't ready. (He also played for the Griz last yr, seeming to me, increasing their interest and willingness to keep tabs on him.)
W/R/T Deron Williams, Mark Cuban has said they're not tanking. Of course, that doesn't mean the time won't come.... the team is playing Kyrie off the ball an awful lot - pretty much whenever LeBron is in there the last couple games, making me feel the need for a real point guard who can (sorta) move Kyrie off the ball is even greater.
I don't doubt that they're working on something. Hopefully a trade, because the FA remainders are no great shakes and the need is looking important (LBJ is just so much better off the ball or in the post as opposed to above the key/break)
As soon as Conley gets hurt Norris Cole just happens to be released by his team... interesting.
