what other big man free agent is available???? Drobjnak is the only other big man of worth, but since we got Miller to be backup/future centre, sadly i dont think Drobjnak is needed
Maybe Petrie will be watching the European Championships very closely as there might be some available talent that will make the move to the NBA.
taken from a robyg post. Some might have been signed by now or had their offers matched but i just put some comments on what i think of each of them
PGs
1 Jason Terry - i think he is gonna be asking for a way to much money plus he would be seeing a lot of time on the bench.
2 Kenny Anderson - dont need another expensive pg
3 Raja Bell - would be a good to come off the bench
4 Travis Best- not worth looking at
5 Rod Strickland - not worth looking at
6 Mark Jackson- not worth looking at
7 Rafer Alston- as a 3rd pg/ he would do well if we can get him for around the minimum.
8 Jacque Vaughn- not worth looking at
9 Chris Whitney- not worth looking at
10 Shammond Williams- not worth looking at
11 Mike Wilks- not worth looking at
12 Rick Brunson - not worth looking at
13 Mateen Cleaves - not worth looking at
14 Tito Maddox - not worth looking at
SGs
1 Stephen Jackson - i think he is asking for a lot of money and would get it from the kings but will be overpaid either way and would not be a good choice.
2 Jon Barry - a fan favourite, but will his contract be too much for a streaky shooter?
3 Reggie Miller - i dont think him and Divac could co exist
4 Dion Glover - not sure about him
5 Calbert Cheaney - was one of the worst starters in the league last year, but he could put up some good numbers with the kings. id rather not take a chance on him
6 Steve Kerr- would be good for our 12th man/injured list player if we can get him for as cheap as possible
7 Steve Smith- too old, not worth looking at
8 Eddie House- not worth looking at
SFs
1 Lamar Odom - no point getting him
2 Jimmy Jackson - if we dont overpay him he will be good to have back on the team.
3 Voshon Lenard - good scorer, but horrible defender, will demand too much money
4 Kendall Gill - a good veteran role player, i dont think we should go for him though, too old, and i think we should go for a younger player at this position.
5 DerMarr Johnson - didnt he get accused of rape or beating a cop or something like that??
6 Adrian Griffin - if we can get him for less then a million a year then that would be a good pickup for us. im not impressed with his stats on an offensive minded team like dallas
7 Bobby Simmons- not worth looking at
8 Joaquin Hawkins - not worth looking at
9 Bryon Russell - not worth looking at
10 Walt Williams - not worth looking at
PFs
1 Derrick Coleman - too expensive
2 Mike Batiste - dont know much about him. but he looks like he has a good future ahead of him if he can get the play time. if we can get him for dirt cheap then we should sign him.
3 Gary Trent - a decent backup but not worth getting unless he signs for the minimum or slightly above.
4 Reggie Evans - Clarks replacement? I doubt seattle lets him walk, but he would be a good player to have coming off the bench to collect rebounds
5 Malik Allen - not worth looking at
6 Brian Scalabrine - if he signs for the minimum then he could be a decent pickup.
7 Scott Padgett- not worth looking at
8 Donnell Harvey - not worth looking at
9 Lee Nailon - not worth looking at
10 Shawn Kemp - not worth looking at
11 Tyrone Hill- not worth looking at
12 Popeye Jones- not worth looking at
13 Charles Oakley - too old, team leader, but not needed on the kings, hes not effective as a rebounder anymore and makes a lot of stupid mistakes (torontos playoff run from a few years ago) not worth looking at.
14 Darvin Ham - not worth looking at
15 Olumide Oyediji - not worth looking at
Cs
1 Predrag Drobnjak - he could be used as a backup C/PF but that would be a waste to have him behind Divac/Miller/Webber.
2 Vladimir Stepania - not needed
3 Mamadou N’Dyiae- too injury prone,
4 Chris Anderson- not worth looking at
5 Tony Massenburg - strong/tough player, good for rebounds, but only if he signs for minimum
6 Pat Burke - not worth looking at
Keon Traded to Jazz
