This is after the Miller, Sasser, Reid for Mohammed deal.

Austin Croshere
Greg Ostertag
Vitaly Potapenko
Tom Gugliotta
Marcus Fizer
Allan Henderson

I left out Derrick Coleman and Danny Fortson, because I think they'll be swapped for each other.

Fortson & Sura, for Coleman and Bryant.

I put the guys in order of preference, and i've already mapped out how the team would look with Croshere and Ostertag. No one has really disagreed with the Croshere plan, he's a better fit then Ostertag, but I liked the idea of going after Kevin Garnett in 2004. I'm not exactly sure how the Potapenko deal would work, or how you would match the money for Gugliotta, doubt if the Magic could make it work. No one in their right mind would trade for Allan Henderson. Fizer gives you youth and scoring, but he's a big soft power forward, all he wants to do is score.

fizer makes more sense than croshere. even though they're both a lil short to really play PF, at least fizer has the ups and hops to be a "garbage/putback" player that will benefit from double teams on ghill and tmac when they drive to the basket. croshere isnt somebody i'd trust with his back to the basket or to get the offensive rebound. i see him more like a spot up player, which we have alreayd - miller and garrity.

but garnett? now how in the world would we pull that off? even TD is stretching it i think. cuz we 'd have THREE MAX salaries, and that's pretty hard to juggle around. i'd settle for jermaine oneal instead.
