Is next year Jamison's final contract year? His 17 million coming off the books is really the only chance i think we have of acquiring another impact player.
A part of me thinks that the best thing for this team to do would be to trade AJ and caron for a superstar 4 (pau gasol-ish). Yeah the team would take a step back for one year but i think they would be much better in the long term than they are now, stuck in the middle of the league.... never good enough to contend for a championship, never bad enough to get a top pick, sure fire superstar

Now i think i am really gonna start pissing people off but i think the two of them have peaked playing together as well. Short of Gil really changing his game becoming more team oriented and becoming more of a defensive force i dont see alot of room for improvement. As far as Caron goes I dont know what to think. I guess i just bought in to hard to all the news when he was coming out of UConn about bad degenerative knees. I hope he continues to progress but i dont think he has that large of a window to continue playing at this top level long into his 30s. Jamison is probably my favorite of the bunch but he is only getting older and slower (sorry AJ).
