Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
Hudson and first round pick can go, because the first round pick are always managed horribly by McHale. There are risks, though.

Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
We don't really have any picks to trade. And I can't imagine any team wanting Hudson. Best bet with him is to keep him (not that we have a choice there) and hope he gets healthy. If that does happen he'll help this team alot. Big if though.

Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
Guys I really can't see Harrington happening. I mean Hudson to ATL, yeah that makes sense, might be the one place he would take the medical retirement, ATL would be a better place to start a music career for him. Other than that nothing makes sense. Indy has talent to give up, do we? We have THUD, Jaric, Mad Dogg, Craig Smith, Justin Reed, and Trenton Hassell to give up, I'm not sure that tickles Atlanta's fancy due to the fact that they need big men.
This is more likely to happen. They target a Scott Pollard, or a Calvin Cato, or maybe even try to work a deal for a Jeff Foster or Sam Dalembert. But we just don't have the ammo for Harrington.

Reed: also a FA, better hustle option than Mad Dog, may not resign.

Yeah, Put Steve Nash, Michael Redd, Lebron, KG, and Tim Duncan on the floor and watch us win 80 games, but in all seriousness, anyone have any prefences or insight on available Centers through trade or FA?

Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
I like him in a more important role, he is a strong guy and would be perfect in that bruiser role.

Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
I've got some names to throw out there, the above mentioned Marvin Ely is a restricted FA, Olowakandi is a UFA, along with Reggie Evans, Kelvin Cato, Scot Pollard, Ervin Johnson, Loren Woods, and Greg Ostertag. None of those names light the world on fire, but that's what's left on the Free Agent market. Other names that are possible solutions through trade are: Dwayne Jones now that they are supposedly going to release him anyways.
I know Dalembert always gets brought up, but Steven Hunter would be another C from the sixers that would fit in well, I know they could use a tall ball handling SG like Jaric to play alongside Iverson.
I like Jeff Foster from the Pacers, I have been hearing a lot about him being on the block, Harrison from that team would be an ok move as well, not sure if they are willing to let him go though.
I've always been a huge fan of Gadzuric, I'd be more than happy with him.
The Wiz have tons of backup options: Andrae Blatche, Calvin Booth, Peter John Ramos, Michael Ruffin, Etan Thomas. All decent options.
Marc Jackson from the hornets would be solid, they have plenty of C's now.
Plenty of players out there, what do you think McHale should do.

Re: What to do with the rest of MLE?
Tag is retired and Johnson think wll retire also. Pollard or Cato is my bet. As for a fit for Hudson I would say the Lake show or I could also seem him as a member of the Heat. Wizards would be another possibilty.
