Looking at that link further for NYK


Do I want Clarkson or a cheaper Rivers?

And how much do I float at Pat Connaughton - again short of adding Harris?

Knix really need to get FvanV or Bogdan as a high level FA. 
Overpay some, hell we're still kicking Noah $6M a season.  Paying an extra $4M to get a quality starter is fine.

I'm still intrigued by Jerami Grant, but wondering about the price tag.  Terrific defender.  Hustle guy, could expand his offense.

Others I'd have interest in:
Torrey Craig -- Terrific wing defender
Connaughton - nice athlete with a good hustle game, just 24
Juancho - good scorer and boarder, iffy D

Bigs:
Myers Leonard - 7' who can bang in 3's and set screens
Giles - young, big, raw
Willie C-S - young backup Big with Length.  The new Jordan Hill!

I see Giles as more of a player - a scorer.  Background says so - as does the film.  Not just a big.  And not so raw.

I think he needs minutes, reps, court time.
Seems like he had the same season over again without progression.
I've tried to keep an eye on him, but he's played sparingly.
Just 22, untapped potential.

SVG to coach Zion and Zionistas.



Trade idea that makes sense is Love to GSW for Wiggins.

CLE needs to move their vets and Wiggy fits on their yute timeline.
Love would space the floor and board for GSW.  Question is can he stay healthy.
Good deal for both teams methinks.

Warriors don't want to rely on Wiggins in the playoffs.
And makes it easier for the Warriors to keep their high draft pick, as having just one rotation yute who might mess up at times is okay.
