Ok, we are gonna get a good pick, guys healthy, and the kids are getting experience...

what about free agency? with the expiring contract(s), shouldnt we be able to be players? any names we might want to persue?

i say get this team healthy and experienced, add the #1 or 2 pick, and add a star in FA, and we got a team next year.
 
who is available in FA
 
Doesn't look like there's a whole lot out there.

Vince Carter? Maybe.

Chauncey Billups has a player option, that he apparently is not going to exercise. I'd LOVE to get him, but he'll be looking to get a max contract, and we all know how cheap ownership is.

Mike Bibby also has a player option. No idea what he'll do.

Jalen Rose? Can he play point? Read he might be cut this season, anyways. What's with his numbers this year? Is he hurt?

Honsetly, if we end with Oden or Durant, and can't get Billups or something, our best bet is to use Ratliff's contract, some younguns, and future picks to make a trade. You could have a championship team within 2 years.
