Here is a plan for your team.

Don't resign:
Carlos Arroyo (never showed much)
Mark Jackson (too old, too slow)
Calbert Cheaney (if Maggette comes, no reason to keep him)
Scott Padgett (not quick enough to play 3, not strong enough to play 4)
Tony Massenburg (takes up roster space)

Sign:
Corey Maggette-another athletic wingplayer, good scorer/defender

Samaki Walker-a lot of people hate him, but if you give him playing time he is a solid rebounder. Would be very cheap

Rick Brunson-not a spectacular player, but he could steady the ship if Lopez takes a while to come around. Would be very cheap

C-Borchardt/Ostertag
PF-Walker/Collins/Amaechi
SF-Kirilenko/Harpring
SG-Maggette/Pavlovic/Stevenson
PG-Lopez/Brunson/Williams

If Borchardt turns out to be ok after his surgery, and Lopez and Collins both stay healthy, you could easily contend for a playoff spot.

Kirelenko and Harpring will both START!!! They are the 2 best players on the team right now!!!!!!!!!

Very true. They have to start them both.

You definitely have to get both guys into the starting lineup -- maybe slide AK over to the PF spot or something. This isn't exactly a deep team, so you have to get the few talented players on the court ... even if they play the same position.

Why would you sign Maggette for so much money to be a backup? I don't think he would like that idea. Actually, I think it will be Kirilenko coming off the bench, not Harpring, but there is no way that Kirilenko can play PF, at least not as a starter. Do you really want him to try and guard Tim Duncan and Chris Webber?

That is not a playoff team.

Alas.
