Atlanta, Detroit, Portland, and Toronto have to be the spots Hedo is looking at. Others are kind of obvious, but him in TOR might be pretty tough with Calderon and Bosh...just not sure if TOR would do that since they have to resign Bosh...though it might make Bosh happy? If ATL gets him look out, he is what they need. Who knows what Detroit is going to look next year, but they do have Prince who is a 3 and Hedo is a 3...neither one of them can play another position really. I think Portland needs Kirk, Hedo wouldn't fit in with them very well. Rudy and him are a lot a like I think, and I really like Portland needs a PG. Hedo is overrated somewhat in my mind, he has to be on a team where they need him to shoot because he takes a lot of bad shots. I'm going to say Atlanta is the best fit for him followed by Toronto. Pass on Turks, he's gonna ask for too much and doesn't fill any needs for us. I'd much prefer for us to re-sign Marion. At least he gives us defence and rebounding and can run the floor.

And just to be clear for my knowledge, Chicago said it would be a boring FA but what about Boozer and Gordon? I thought Boozer made it pretty clear he wasn't going back, and him and DET seem like a natural fit to me. I think Gordon is deff. coming here but not for a 11 mil. I'm guessing maybe a 5 yr contract starting around 9-10 mil. For Boozer it depends on the money I think Joe said he wouldn't go over 12 mil in the first season so we will see what Boozer wants, I think a better option would be to try to sign Millisap or Lee and then trade Rip for a C, but we will see.

I mean all he can do for the Raps is give them another ball-handler, shooter, and a guy who can be your go to guy in the 4th quarter and open up the pick and roll game even more PHI. I mean what does Marion do nothing he JUST LIKE LEBRON relies heavily on his ATHLETICISM and JUMPING OUT OF ROOF mentality to get his stats, and Marion is a GOOD REBOUNDER I'll give you that but he can't create his own shot at all and his defense is above AVG. at best. Lamar Odom OWNED HIM AS IN OWNED HIM in the 2 PLAYOFF series he had against the Suns and WHEN MARION was guarding him. he can defend multiple positions like Battier and Bowen but he is NOT EVEN CLOSE in terms of being the defender THEY ARE.

LA said it best (though he added a lot of unnecessary crap) "Marion can't create his own shot." Unless he thinks Calderon is Nash, and it's 2004 I'd take Hedo any day....though I do agree that he jacks a lot of crap up.

We don't need a shooter, we already have enough of those. Calderon can set up Marion since TOR plans to play up tempo next season.

LMFAO @ Minnesota. Rubio at 5, Flynn @ 6, Lawson @ 18. That's crazy. 3 PG's in the first round, 2 in the lotto. EDIT: Lawson being traded to Denver for Charlotte's future 1st. Denver has a real PG back-up now and can have jr smith come off the bench and be able to get some points and have lawson run the point when chauncey is on the bench.
