Way too many threads opened up about different players being bought out. Heres your one stop shop. Honestly Leon Powe never deserves a thread unless hes literally signed by us.
Let me start with my two cents on JJ. At first I was like no way do I wanna see Jeffries in a Knicks uniform. Then I thought why? Because of Isiah and his contract. Can you fault the guy for taking security and money for his family. When we signed him I remember reading the headline Isiah gets his defensive stopper. Thats exactly what JJ did for us. I think with him and brewer on board, we are looking at a great C Squad (The All Defense Squad). All we have to do is snag TJ Ford and a buyout center 6'11 or above. The big body plugging the middle will cause defenses to think twice regardless of how good they are (think Timofey).
All signs have Troy Murphy going to Boston, so lets forget him. Havent heard anything about Dalembert or Camby being bought out. This just leads Pryzbilla. I have heard the hes requested a buyout. So I am going to plug him in now and show you different squads in different situations (if you read Bill Simmons book he does this a lot)
The A Squad The B Squad (Not all 5 will be in at once)
C-Pryz C-Turiaf
PF-STAT PF-Williams
SF-Melo SF- Walker
SG-Fields SG- Douglas
PG-Billups PG- Ford
The C Squad (The defensive stoppers)
C- Pryz
PF- Turiaf
SF- Jeffries
SG-Brewer
PG-Douglas
The Game on the line Squad
C-STAT
PF-Williams
SF-Melo
SG-Fields
PG-Billups
I know Williams didnt take the shot against the 76ers but still we need a big time three point threat. Maybe Kapono! Well see Anyways these are nice squads which will only get better next year. The Defensive Squad is especially nice. With the proper waiver pickups we can make a run to the Eastern Conference Finals.
EDIT:
The buyouts will be Anthony Carter, Shelden, and Roger Mason.
Inactives: Rautins, Balkman and Azu (until fully healthy)
