Re: Expansion draft thread

I liked how Bickerstaff was praising most of the players. The lot of them are scrubs except a few notable exceptions. I was saddened to see that they didn't take any unprotected Raptors.

Unless they make some key signings, and have an exceptional draft or something, they should be the worst team in the league.

I bet less than half of those expansion picks even stay on the team.

Oh, so this is kind of off track, but is Derek Fisher a free-agent? Or has a chance to opt out? Because I heard he would like to start again, and that cleary isn't happening in LA, so maybe the Bobcats would be a good fit?

They need to sign Jamal Crawford and Stromile Swift. They also need to hope that either Atlanta gets the top pick from Orlando and takes Howard or that Orlando decides to take Howard. They need the shot blocking of Okafor backing up their young guards.

Crawford
Wallace
Kapono
Swift
Okafor

That lineup would be decent. It's probably better than whatever Orlando and Toronto are planning on throwing out there next year. If not, at least they are young and have some upside
