TheNorthCydeRises Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 None of these guys are a worth a shit for our roster. We need primetime players, we got role players and future role players. I agree. What we really need, is for our draft picks to be the type of role players that the ones suggested here are. If Schröder, Jenkins, Bebe, and the 2014 1st round draft pick can step up and crack the rotation . . or at least give us quality spot minutes at times . . that will eliminate the need to bring in cheap, role playing free agents, and have us concentrate on bringing in a free agent who can crack the starting lineup. If the current rotation is . . . PG - Teague G - Korver F - Carroll PF - Millsap C - Horford 6th - Lou . . . then having Dennis and JJ take the place of Mack, and Bebe take the place of Scott, and the 1st round pick cracking the rotation, it means that we probably need a significant player added to the team, so that either Korver and/or Carroll can go to the bench. One of those cheap free agents will probably have to be added though. But at some point, we need to see if these young draft picks can play, or if we need to cut our losses and move on.

TheNorthCydeRises Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Seems as you win with seasoned quality veterans. So here are Deng, Granger, Gortat, Rudy Gay, Livingston, Hawes and Marvin. Right. People don't want to mention Marvin around here, but here were his stats in his final season here 10.2 ppg 5.2 rebs 1.2 asst 43% FG 39% 3FG 54% TS 113 Off Rtg 101 Def Rtg If we're simply looking for a cheap role player, we may as well get one who can offensively play and defend the 3 and the 4. Can't deny that he'd fit Bud's system, seeing that he's always been a team first type of guy anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bS5emrauoU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Marvin would likely play better in Bud's system but he's never been an assertive offensive player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Diesel Posted June 23, 2014 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Waiting for Diesel to go off about Marvin...... You're right. There's no place for Marvin on this team. Really? Marvin is not a good player. We have DMC who is 10 times the player that Marvin is because DMC has passion. This whole team has a fire and has passion. As far as a FA pickup, we need a Big SG who can hit the long ball and play good defense. In Leiu of that, I would look at the following people already mentioned: Xavier Henry. Wilson Chandler. Wesley Johnson CJ Miles. Jimmer Freddette. Of those, everybody knows I am a Wesley Johnson fan. However, I could see us picking up Jimmer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the closest thing to Danny Green in the league and could immediately plug in and play in our system. He's not quite the 3pt shooter that Green is but 37% in the Lakers system should get a bump in our system with more open shots. He's an inch taller than Green and a year younger as well. I've been a fan of Wesley's since Syracuse and while he's never lived up to the potential that I thought he had, I still think he's young enough to develop into a player who can start on a championship team.

Moderators AHF Posted June 23, 2014 Moderators Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Bad karma to bring back Marvin. Better to be done with that one and move on. Xavier Henry is a high interest player for me on a cheap deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I haven't exactly followed Marvin's career since he left. Has he developed an upright standing skill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBASupes Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 It makes more sense to bring Marvin in at 3-4 mil than Deng at 10+ mil. Still doesn't make sense tho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dejay Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Eff the Marvin talk. I'd gladly bring in Deng for more $$$ or Wesley Johnson than him. Who's next? Childress? Trade for Osh? Kick the tires on Dion Glover? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
